favorite metal subgenre?

[RedStorm]

band?

 

[vgmaster9]

Industrial metal, Fear Factory.

 

[Draehl]

Atmospheric BM/Blackened Folk. Yes, I chose two, and while here can be some melody differences (IE the folk element) there's a huge amount of bleed-over. I get a very similar vibe off both that I just lump it all together. Drudkh, Fyrnask, Dordeduh, Negura Bunget, Agalloch, Burzum, Blut Aus Nord, Moonsorrow, Wodensthrone, Spectral Lore, Wolves in the Throne Room, Falkenbach, Myrkgrav, Primordial, Walknut.

It tends to root out the overly goofy elements from folk, while toning down the "trying too hard to be evil" elements of orthodox BM. You're just left with well written heavy dark music that sets a great tone.

[no country for old wainds]

trad
slayer

 

[ChristianRocker116]

Christian power metal

 

[Baroque]

Thrash, Exmortus or Antidote, currently.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Black metal; Burzum.

 

[Carpe Mortem]

Doom, alternating within the various sub-subgenres.

Candlemass has been a favorite for a pretty long time. Electric Wizard has been a favorite for about four or five years. Definitely more on the stoner side than trad these days, it's more feel-good despair than dramatic despair.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Trad, thrash, or old-school-style tech/prog metal, depending on my mood. Bands capable of mixing any of the above get bonus points.

EDIT: Oh, and I guess I'll go with Iron Maiden, Anacrusis, and Fates Warning respectively.

 

[Nephilim96]

Either Sludge, Black, or Death.

 

[Westbrook266]

Black metal-Judas iscariot and my favorite band of all time Burzum
