I'm recently starting to get into Metal and I would like to know if you guys knew of any good bands. (I'm sure you guys do.) Only thing I ask is that you don't recommend any Death Metal because I can't stand that.

You'll probably like Opeth even if you don't like death metal growls so I recommend them.

Dream Theater: prog metal band. Imagine a Yes/Megadeth mix. Great singer and incredible musicians.

Duh on my part. Pretty much the best metal band currently going today. If you like Mastodon, then go on to check out stuff like Baroness or Red Fang.

I'll third Mastodon. Easily my favorite metal band. I'll also recommend Chimaira and Gojira.

Heathen Artillery Nuclear Assault Symphony X Kyuss, if you are interested in Bluesy Heavy Stoner Metal. Annihilator Corrosion of Conformity, if you want more Groove Metal.

Usually, I go to Pandora or Bandcamp to listen to music but I love this site for the visual representation. It really is a good link for newbies to metal or people wanting to branch out. Another recommendation, if you can get past the Satanic lyrics and imagery, Ghost is awesome.

That's a list I'd agree with as a good starting point. Throw in some Dio, Diamondhead, Iced Earth, Slayer and your probably set, maybe Dragonforce too.
