You've got a good list there. I must have hundreds of CDs in my collection, mostly of metal, industrial, hard rock, etc. I started listening to metal in my mid-teen years. At first it was bands like Metallica, Slipknot, Static-X, System of a Down, Mudvayne, and other mainstream metal acts. Over the years my interets expanded to other metal subgenres like death/black/doom/progressive/grindcore and other thrash metal bands like Slayer, Megadeth, Exodus, Evile, Sodom, Sacrifice and a bunch of others. Many of my preferred bands appear on your list, but I'm also a fan of Asphyx, At the Gates, Candlemass, Cannibal Corpse, Children of Bodom, Daath, Dark Fortress, Dark Tranquillity, Danzig, Dead to this World, Decrepit Birth, and shit that's a lot already. Anyway, metal's awesome!
