I have always loved the NWoBHM stuff, especially Iron Maiden and earlier Def Leppard. And Judas Priest, although I guess they pre-date that a little bit. I still regularly listen to a lot of Metallica and Slayer. Although I never got really into death metal, there were a few bands (Morbid Angel, Suffocation, Entombed) that I really loved.
The Fucking Champs and Don Caballero are quite good, although one could certainly argue they are not 'metal' bands.
