Controversial opinions on metal

I heard some tracks from Epica; I like them. Nightwish are just so ridiculously catchy and stupidly epic.(not very flattering and rather shallow descriptors, I guess, haha). Basically, Elend reduced to pop music, with rhythmic captivity and sans the crazy, apocalyptic all over the place theatrics.
My only qualms with them are the often godawful lyrics, overproduction and occasional(okay, maybe slightly more than occasional) reliance on processed synths. That said,none of the above is particularly overbearing, so I still like them quite a bit(the stuff with Tarja, mainly.) I enjoy Oceanborn the most.
 
From the ages of about 8-10, "My Way On The Highway" by Limp Bizkit was my favorite song, mostly due to the fact that it was the theme song for Wrestlemania XVII. :oops:
