You should. It's a good song. I've always been partial to "All the King's Horses", myself.

Despite the guitar work, what do any of you find apealing in metal?

Pantera is pretty popular actually. If you like Pantera, you'll like Down. I saw this band live along with The Sword; they both opened for Metallica.
Here's their Wiki page if you want some basic info.

I haven't listened to them very much, so I don't know any good songs. The only one I can distinctly remember is Bury Me In Smoke.

"Goodbye to the World" - the opening theme to A Drug That Makes You Dream. If anyone else actually has heard that, I'll be immensely surprised.

Despite the guitar work, what do any of you find apealing in metal?

Is anything else required?

Still, a lot of the metal I listen to has pretty good vocals (power metal) and background orchestration (symphonic). Actually, since I rarely pay attention to lyrics, a lot of metal subgenres and their bands have good vocals...

what DONT you find appealing about metal!?

 

[ddq5]

This one little song that totally doesn't get the airplay or respect it deserves. Seriously, I can't see why no one ever listens to it. It's called Stairway to Heaven by a band called Led Zeppelin. I wish I could find some other fans!

Dickheads screaming in my ear is what I don't find appealing.

For me it has to be skull f**k by evil activities. If any one hear has heard that I will eat my shorts.

You might as well be asking why anyone likes anything. It's such a broad question, but here's a shot.

For those with the mind and ear to stand metal, it's interesting, it's energizing, it's empowering...
Well, that's about as close as I can get with such a question. There are tons of different styles of metal, and each have their own likenesses.

Ugh! No! Bad!

I know it's your own respectful opinion, but I can't contain myself: Not all metal is about the guitar and vocals!

 

[DirkGently]

For fans of bizarre almost-metal: Sleepytime Gorilla Museum - Sleep Is Wrong

For fans of bizarre jazz: Morphine - Early To Bed

For fans of bizarre jazzy technical face-melting-solo-srsly metal: Meshuggah - Closed Eye Visuals

Three excellent bands I'd recommend to anyone with the ear to listen.

EDIT: Just thought of another.
I can't really describe the genre, but here it is anyway: Mr. Bungle - Retrovertigo
Don't let the name scare you off, it's really quite a beautiful song. Of course, the fanmade video is nothing short of mind-blowing.

Morphine is more low rock than jazz, imho. I prefer "You look like rain" off of bootleg detroit myself.

Favorite song? Christ that's a hard one. How about: Everything by Godspeed You! Black Emporer, "Broken Machine" "Watching Evil Empires Fall Apart" "Synthesizer" and "Jimmy Carter", all by Electric Six, "Fireflies and Empty Skies" by God Is An Astronaut, everything Nick Drake ever did, and quite a few other things I can't be arsed to name right now.

And no, you're not getting youtube links you lazy bastards.

 

[BiscuitsJoe]

Way Back When by DariusTX. Definitely not my favorite song, but I doubt many people have heard it.

Marcus Tomlinson by Dead Scott. I am willing to bet that no one has heard this song.

Really? It seems like all metal is about the guitar and vocals. Are there any strictly instrumental metal bands? Are there any without guitarists? I doubt it heavily.

Metal would be nothing without it's rhythm section.
