One of my classmates listens to all the same bands I thought were cool in middle school, when they were first achieving mainstream recognition - Metallica (when I said I was one of the many myriad Metallica fans that only likes one particular album she guessed Load  ), kr0n, Marilyn Manson...then she asked if I liked Puddle of Mud and I disgustedly told her I would *never* listen to Puddle of Mud - turns out she had it playing through her headphones as I spoke those words 
I think for next class I want to burn her an MP3 CD with some really awesome metal and rock-n-roll. My plan was to include mostly less-accessible stuff, and then point her towards the stuff that's widely available. The new Wolves in the Throneroom album is most excellent (PNW represent boooiiiii) so I'll probably include that, maybe both Red Fang albums (how is PNW sooo good at metal?! - must be all the gloomy weather...), Oakhelm, Windir, maybe the new Boris 'Heavy Rocks' album just for kicks.
My question to you is this: if you could make one MP3 CD to turn somebody on to all things good in metal, a sort of highlight reel of bands that aren't as widely known as Priest or Maiden, what would you include?! While the format I've chosen is an MP3 CD with complete albums, if you wanted to design a mix cd with individual tracks that would be great too!
tl;dr: Tell me all your favorite metals!
