Well this seems to be a pretty good list of metal bands as well as some other stuff. I personally like Killswitch Engage, In Flames, As I Lay Dying, and of course Avenged Sevenfold. If you're interested in instrumental music, Blue Sky Black Death is a production duo in LA that has forged a genre of music somewhere between hip hop, classical, and believe me when you hear it you'll understand. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3ww8LoTLp0&feature=related
Other than those bands, 30 Seconds to Mars, and Flyleaf, and maybe DevilDriver and Underoath. Otherwise I listen to rap and Linkin Park, maybe Rage Against The Machine.

I have a wide taste in music but the base was pretty much always metal. Some of my favorite artists are given below:
[Metal] - Megadeth, Mastodon, Anaal Nathrakh, Morbid Angel, Machine Head etc.
[Rock] - Muse, Guns N Roses, Alice in Chains, Rush etc.
[Folk/neofolk etc] - Clannad, Triarii, Rome etc.
[Country] - Garth Brooks, Johnny Cash etc.
[Jazz/fusion] - Miles Davis, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Weather report, Esbjörn svensson trio (E.S.T.) etc.
[Scores] - I love alot of the Danny Elfman and Hans Zimmer scores. The score from "the fountain" may be my favorite though but I cant remember who wrote it at the top of my head.
[Pop] - The Beatles, Amy MacDonald etc.
I did just start to get into opera and I do love "die zaubtflöte" (one of the all time classics of course) and I also started to explore electronical music. It has so many subgenres but I believe its some kind of trance music that appeals to me the most.

Nice to see what all of you are into.
I'll just give you a sample of what shakes my headset these days. Being from that neck of the woods, I'm prone to listen to Norwegian black metal such as Dimmu Borgir, Satyricon, Immortal, and to a lesser degree Enslaved. Lately, I've also had a taste of Windir. Worthy Swedish bands are, among others, In Flames and Dissection. Ah, how I do love the hoarse harmonics of Maha-Kali from Reinkaos.
Cradle of Filth, At the Gates, Children of Bodom, Stormlord has also gotten alot of space on playlists lately. Among the classic, I would list Metallica, Slayer and Iron Maiden. Although I don't listen to them all that much these days, they sure as hell had their influence on me. System of a Down is one the more genuinely innovative bands, but again they have been replaced in the harsh competition on my playlist.
I could go on for awhile with the metal, but I probably should mention some of the things I like from other genres. Queen and Depeche Mode are sort of cornerstones of my music taste. I listened a lot to these as a teenager, along with a surprising amount of classical music. When I listen to non-metal today it is likely to include Depeche Mode, Madrugada, Yello, and Muse.

When it comes to classical music and opera, I'm listen to Wagner, Beethoven, Bach and Mozart. In my teens, Wagner got the most play-time. I still like it pompous, it seems :). Just now I had a touch of Borodin put in between Madrugada and Yello.

Like you, I'm quite eclectic in my musical tastes.
This may get me banned, but I can't stand metal bands whose singers sound like cookie monster. Beyond that, I like tons of different stuff.
I like big jazz era bands, Cab Calloway & the like.
I like crooners a lot, have a ton of Dean Martin & Sinatra.
I like Polynesian Pop\50's & 60's tropical\exotica like Martin Denny + Les Baxter + Arthur Lyman
I like new-ish Halloween themed swing like the Moon Rays (Swingin' at the Seance) old surf type music, etc
There is a lot of Country I like but most of it is old like Hank Williams Sr, Waylon Jennings, Roger Miller etc
I LOVE the Squirrel Nut Zippers.
I like metal.. Metallica is one of my favorite bands. I also love 80's style metal like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and the like.
Right now I like the fusion of metal & opera like the first Nightwish album and these guys:
Diablo Swing Orchestra.
That's it, too much to list really.
