what you mean SOAD won't reform
I have to go listen to spiders now!!!
I have been cranking a weird assortment, lots of metallica (especially comparing all the old stuff to the new album, the new album is really growing on me!), static x, coal chamber, diablo swing orchestra (haven't gotten the album yet but want to just to support them! best new find for me!) and as always hitting the roadrunner united album (In the fire with king diamond rocks)
I've actually been trying to get into a little more of the 'core' side
(all that remains, HORSE the band (who are just awesome), 36 crazyfists etc etc) mainly because im going to soundwave festival and I have already seen devildriver and lacuna coil so thinking of checking out the other bands I usually wouldn't... It should be awesome though,... NIN will be there and Alice in chains! so can't wait till february!
and to answer about why I like metal,... there is just nothing like it,... and its not 'song written by someone else' its people putting their passion and energy into it to make good music... I tend to like the less death / grindy bands and more into melodic/progressive/nu metal but for me distortion in your face, mixed with crazy riffs, beats that just make you want to headbang in time,... maybe you should watch metal: a headbangers journey, very good documentary,... and to quote the end of that movie
Sam Dunn: Ever since I was 12 years old I had to defend my love for heavy metal against those who say it's a less valid form of music. My answer now is that you either feel it or you don't. If metal doesn't give that overwhelming surge of power that make the hair stand up at the back of your neck, you might never get it, and you know what? That's okay, because judging by the 40,000 metalheads around me we're doing just fine without you.

btw thankyou to the people that got me into the 'stoner metal' bands,... can't recall the thread but I like almost all the bands that were mentioned!
