Where can I find a band that can carry a damn tune, and still has at least semi-intelligible lyrics? So far I like Disturbed, Cradle of Filth, Avenged Sevenfold and Apocalyptica. You can use that as a kind of guideline.
Help me find good metal!

i'm personally quite fond of arch enemy, otep, iced earth is just epic, look up the gettysburg trilogy off their album "The Glorius Burden" and anything by manowar
I would have liked to help, as metal is fucking awesome \m/
BUT
Apocalyptica <-- this put me off massively, I dislike them very much, usually can't stand a tune for more than 30 seconds, it just kills my ears.

Ooh. Well, I'll throw my 2 favourite bands at you, I guess.
Also, Attack! Attack! are NOT METAL AT ALL.

If you want a screamer... I have one band in mind I've enjoyed thoroughly, considering I usually hate screamers, but at least these guys can carry a fecking tune.
Graveworm.
Other than that, I just listen to music. Genres mean little to me, but that's the one band I can confirm as being in the general vicinity of Metal.
If I must indulge you with what types of Genre... Anywhere from Classical to Metal and whatever classification Bagpipes fall into... dear Lord how I love the bagpipes.
