1) Annihilator
2) Pantera
3) Judas Priest
4) Iron Maiden
5) Metallica

I think a couple of these can be considered to be in a hard rock/metal category but still metal nonetheless.

Alot of "Hair" bands, heavy or pop-metal back then were all lumped together and called "Metal" by the media and record companies whether some feel they were or weren't.

Kids today call Godsmack and Korn metal. I think those bands are pure crap.

Kids of the 90-ies more. Today's kids, luckily, listen to a bit different music (comparing to the 90-ies again).

And yes, Korn blows big time.

In order of most time spent in my CD player...

Mastodon
Testament
Slayer
Metallica (thru ...AJFA)
BEHOLD....The Arctopus!!!


I listen to lots of underground/unsigned bands too, but that's probably best for another thread, another time.
