^ I think I have LoG under Thrash even though that's a bit of a stretch, then I have the classic "heavy metal" for all the old, subgenre-less bands (including Pantera).

Good. I hate seeing these 9000 genres everywhere. For me I can accept lumping them together. Alternative is alternative. Primus does not need "funk metal"  oh and I used to have LoG and Pantera as "groove metal" but again I bumped them into "metal" recently ok enough clerical work Anyone know Asphyx? Combo doom/death metal band. Really cool.

Since we're on a related topic...how "genre happy" are you guys? It kind of bugs me, so I consolidate. I have metal, thrash, death, prog, technical, alternative if it doesn't really fit into one I bump into "metal" or if its different and not really classifiable I just bump it into "prog metal" if I dont think its "alt metal" Oh and I do have industrial and black metal, but I dont really like those genres and think I may have one band for each...

I recently did that too, but with some exceptions. I put everything into whatever it's closest to in order to only have 5 or 6 metal genres

I wish I didn't.  The only nu-metal bands I like are the ones that aren't really nu-metal, people just say they are. (SOAD, RATM)

ain't that the truth
Why isn't post-metal an option? I would never call it prog metal because that would mean associating it with Dream Theater

I pretty much like all metal except for gothic and most black metal. Oh and "nu metal" though no one really knows what that means  Can't really pick a favorite, so I'll go with the genre that got me into it. THRASH!

You need a choice that says all of the above. HAHA. I can think of so many bands I love to listen to from each of those sub-genres.

Doom for the most part, but also a couple of Death metal and Black metal bands.

Stating "I like prog metal but I also like heavy metal" seems too redundant for me (although I do understand that the Heavy Metal option surely stands for the classic metal acts. Mainly the NWOBHM bands). Because of that I will go with thrash metal. Megadeth and Sepultura being my favorites bands of the genre.
