I feel like I have to interject here but I saw this thread come back to life and I was going through it and I saw several people list Slayer as death metal bands that they like. Slayer is not a death metal band. They're a thrash metal band.

I am bad at the classifications, but the metal bands i like are..opeth, neurosis, high on fire, pig destroyer, acid bath and a few others.
lately i'm really digging sludge metal (i've heard some of these bands described as doom too, i'm not too sure what the difference is) like eyehategod, electric wizard, bongzilla and the melvins (idk if you all would classify them as metal really, but they rock hard!)

I've never heard of High On Fire, Acid Bath, Electric Wizard or Bongzilla but the others are all metal. Although I think The Melvins may be classified as Nu Metal which shouldn't really be metal in the first place.

Im heavy into Pantera lately..not sure where you would want to classify them under(RIP Dimebag Darryl). I saw someone mention Prong..big fan of the "Snap your Fingers, Snap your Neck" song. Got me through 16 hour days working out west blaring that in my iPod!

Are Prong still around? I have their very first album from 1987 ("Primitve Origins") and that was amazing for it`s time. More hardcore than metal, though.
