^Finntroll does count, and SYL is not industrial metal.^

Ok, so I'll give this a shot.

Death metal: Er, don't care much for dm, but Bloodbath, I guess.
Black metal: Hehe, a tie between Emperor, Immortal, Diabolical Masquerade and Weakling.
Melodeath metal: Soilwork.
Viking metal: Bathory and (though they're not really 'Viking') Moonsorrow.
Folk metal: Probably Finntroll. Asmegin and old Vintersorg are close.
Progressive metal: Symphony X and newer Vintersorg.
Heavy metal: Iron Maiden.
Doom metal: Not really doom, but Katatonia.
'Ethnodeath' metal: Orphaned Land.
Progressive death metal: Opeth.

[Lord Foul]

Interesting that this thread is in the forum of a genre defying band like Nevermore. Also, where do I put Orphaned Land? Are we allowed to extend the subgenrefication (<-- this is probably not, in fact, a real word) ad infinitum ?

 

[Brett]

Death Metal: Hypocrisy
Melodeath: Dark Tranquillity
Thrash Metal: Testament, Annihilator for the tie
Speed Metal: Megadeth(What moose said)
Power Metal: Just curious, would Jon Oliva's Pain or Savatage be considered power metal?
Grind: Napalm Death
Progressive Metal: For the most part, Dream Theater but their latest output hasn't been really up to par.
Symphonic Black Metal: Dimmu Borgir
Gothic Metal: Lacuna Coil
Doom: My Dying Bride and Candlemass for the tie.
'Math' Metal: Dillinger Escape Plan
Industrial Metal: Ministry
NWOBHM: Iron Maiden
Stoner Metal: Clutch
Post-core: Neurosis and Isis for the tie

Here's a tip: never take me more seriously than I do.

 

[Mephistophiliac]

Doom: Cathedral, Candlemass
Thrash: Overkill

Old Black: Venom
New Black: Dimmu Borgir
Nu: Godsmack

Non-falling-into-genre: Nevermore

also not sure where Grave Digger (thrash?), Macabre, and Beyond the Embrace would fall, as i know crap when it comes to genres.
