This video more than accurately explains it. If you still don't get it, say so.
Pay attention to the first band on the TV. |

I swear I'm developing an obsession with last.fm, I'm on it practically any time an internet connection is available. 
Also, I know I'm a few days late with saying this, but... Wrath is a fucking AWESOME album.

Okay, to turn this thread away from being a list thread, what was the first metal song you listened to that made you realized "I wanna love this music"? For me, it was (sic) by Slipknot. I heard that song and I was amazed by the speed and technicality of it. Then again, I was 7 years old and I'd never heard of Derek Roddy, but I still love them.

For me, it was Trivium. I'd never been hugely into music beforehand, but when I did listen to it I listened to artists such as the Kaiser Chiefs and James Blunt. My girlfriend at the time was listening to Ascendancy by Trivium, and not knowing what the music was like I borrowed an earphone. I was a little surprised by the intensity of it at first, but by the end of the song I was loving it. I couldn't get enough of the screaming vocals, unlike most people who need to be eased into them. It was at that point that I knew I loved metal (though I was told they were thrash metal and didn't discover they're actually metalcore until a good year later <_<).
I don't really listen to Trivium very much anymore, but they'll always hold a special place in my heart for being the first. I'll have to go back and listen to them again for pure nostalgia.

almost embarassed to admit it, but the Underoath song on Madden 05. Then after my initial dive into metal, the next step came when I downloaded Bury the Hatchet for GH2 360.

The fact that most people get into metal through metalcore or nu-metal like Slipknot, Disturbed, Trivium, A7X, Deftones etc.
I remember for me I was into like hard rock and new rock like Zeppelin, Rush, King Crimson, Green Day, A Perfect Circle, Billy Talent, Ramones, The Clash and such. Then my friend who is a year older than me showed me Metropolis Pt. 1 by Dream Theater and I absolutely loved it. Then I got more into Dream Theater and Symphony X and into thrash (eg. Metallica who were the only thrash band I knew at the time) and then it exploded from there. Now I listen to all types of metal (except the happy folk metal bands like Tyr).
EDIT: Updated the list with everyone and added a few of you as friends as well. My username is different than here (fonghow190).

Why would it matter how people get into metal? They're still into metal, are they not? ;)
For the record, I've been listening to metal for around three, maybe three and a half years now, so I'm not really a newbie (though admittedly not exactly an old timer either).
