Hell yeah! Right here. Metal-head for life.
Been listening to metal since I was about 11 years old, and I'm gonna be 30 in 2013.
I started off in the early 90s (I know, bad time for metal) listening to Metallica, Megadeth (my favorite band), Guns 'N Roses, and Alice in Chains. I was also into the Grunge scene at the time, which is supposed to taboo for metal fans but whatever; stuff like Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Smashing Pumpkins, etc.
From there I moved on to "Nu-Metal", as that was the fad then. Stuff like Sevendust, Disturbed, Mudvayne, Coal Chamber, etc.
Nowadays, I'm really into Melodic Death Metal and Power Metal. And, as uncool as it may be, I'm really getting into the 80s hair metal scene. But I listen to pretty much any metal outside of rap-metal hybrid stuff and straight death metal (never could get past the guttural vocals).
