>huh, I expected pretentious prog and techshit
I love early Fates Warning and Queensryche, otherwise I'm not much of a fan of prog and consider it incredibly pretentious after a while.
>then it's just what you said
Traditional heavy metal (specifically '70s) is my favorite type, but I'm also a big fan of USPM, thrash (think like Metal Church, classic Metallica and Overkill) and speed. I occasionally delve into extreme metal too, but I need to be in the right mood for it.
