does anyone have any examples of a heavy metal song or artiste?

Metal started and ended with Deep Purple. All else are posers.

Tiny Tim was my favorite heavy metal artist

want an education in metal? start with the greats: iron maiden, judas priest, megadeth, helloween, black sabbath, poison, godsmack. these will get you into the various forms of metal. just go from there and explore. find what bands you like. just stay away from that emo/screamo crap.

Metalica and Kiss.
