Black, Extreme Power, and Symphonic Metal just about tie. black is my favorite, so i voted it, but it could change at any time.

Power metal or Progressive metal? I think I'll never be able to decide =/

Power Metal has been my fav subgenre for many years, and truely enjoy it. But I have also been listening to a lot of prog bands in the past 2 years!!! So I belive I really cant decide yet =/

Not sure if I posted here already and I'm too lazy to look back...

Doesn't take a genius to figure out what my most favorite metal sub genre is (it's prog!)

I'd have to say Industrial Metal, Folk Metal or Gothic Metal....cant pick which is better (for me at least)...I do Make exceptions for some bands though

Thrash metal here!

Other than crossover thrash (for some reason I just cannot get into it) it's easily my favourite metal subgenre. The general sound and style of it is awesome and brings much pleasure to these eardrums, haha, there is a lot of range lyrically (from goofy and pretty much "immature" to being almost poetic and highly political in places) and I find that each band has it's own definite style (In most cases), indeed, I haven't heard many crits about thrash "all sounding the same", because it's probably the best genre for not doing so (IMO of course), and it's interesting how styles are markedly different regionally and internationally... Hell, even the old school vibe itself has it's own greatness about it!

Power metal would be second. Although it's not as varied as thrash (IMO) it's fun, uplifting and yes, epic! Not fond on the stuff with relationship/love focus though... I.e Sonata :/

Thrash! I used to be so into prog. metal but then I found something called prog. thrash and then I found true thrash. It's become something I love. I feel like I can really relate to it.

Black Metal offcourse. full of clichés and stupidity, fake attitudes and many more, but we all love this genre and corpse paint!

Hm this is hard but I will go with Black Metal because iv'e listened to lots of death metal and its starting to get boring now. Im still getting into black metal

Extreme Power Metal for me (I voted other). I can't get enought of Kalmah, Children Of Bodom, Norther, Wintersun, etc....

I voted Progressive. Although it's equal to Power (Symphonic, Extreme, etc.)

I'm still liking all metal subgenres (even Nu and alternative) but I'm developing a very strong taste for the extreme melodic metal (melodic black, melodeath, melothrash).

Sure, Black Metal will probably always be a genre I'll constantly listen to. But New Wave of Brittish Heavy Metal got me into Metal so I guess in one way it's my favourite genre. Also currently a big fan of the mixes Death/Doom and Gothic/Doom.

I like Power Metal, the most but Progressive it's amazing in all kinds, Progressive Power, Progressive Death .... so my vote went to power but progressive subgenres are amazing

Traditional Heavy Metal and Power Metal, though I like a little bit of everything.

Voted other, industrial, but that doesn't mean that I don't like other genres, such as black, gothic, power, viking, I like those as well, but they are still not my favourites...yet.

i voted for other. i'm into doom, stoner and sludge.

Death Metal rapes all. About 98% of my cd's are death metal albums ranging from Melodic (In Flames, Dark Tranquility, Amon Amarth) to Brutal (Nile, Behemoth, Vader, Morbid Angel). The other two percent is Children of Bodom, Finntroll, Sinergy.

I lol'd at this. Since when are Behemoth, Vader and Morbid Angel Brutal DM bands?

I also regret not picking Thrash, quite a mistake there Ah well, methinks I voted DM, which would be my second fave subgenre now.

Other. NWOBHM.

Hmm, definitely the folk/viking metal genre. The genre always has a fun, uplifting experience; not to mention it's very unique.

I voted for Thrash. I love the older Heavy Metal stuff like Sabbath and Judas Priest. But thrash metal is my favorite without a doubt

Gotta give some love to the folk/viking metal subgenre... I love the variety of instruments commonly used and the themes are very inspiring. Sometimes it feels like I'm taking a journey back in time, or at least that's what I like to imagine...

DEATH METAL DESECRATES ALL

I voted for death metal despite it's flaws I just can't get enough of it. Black and thrash, are close behind.

Folk for sure

Other. NWOBHM.

that's still Heavy Metal ...
I think we should have had the right for more choices . I settled for Viking/Folk Metal

I selected Other, because I'm quite fond of avant-garde. Although I don't have as much knowledge of it as I would like.

I preffer Progressiv Death Metal But ..
my Choice is Death

Black Metal is my main genre, but recently I have been listening to a lot of other subgenre's, especially Sludge Metal. I've been addicted to Sludge since the first minute I heard it. I'm pretty open to most of the genre's and I like most of them. The only two subgenre's I don't really like are Heavy Metal itself, and Gothic Metal.
