Hello Yea Forums. I want to get into metal, or at least try, but I dunno where to even begin.
What do you think a metal newfag like me would enjoy?

It's a huge diverse genre that I know little about, and I don't wanna keep missing out.

Yeah that's fair. I guess all I can really say is I like things that are a bit more melodic rather than just a wall of sound, and I'm also just not a fan of those gurgly monster vocals a lot of people do. I'm not completely closed off to that though, I'll give it a shot
Dominic Myers
Mastodon
Iron Maiden
Slayer
Death

OK, so you might not like the Kittie...
Tyler Richardson
definitely listen to Crack the Skye. It's easy to get into, but has a lot more going on when you look closer
Nathaniel Morris
Start with The Gerogerigegege (the rock 'n roll stuff), then listen to anything else that is metal, and you will probably prefer that.

Ryan Cruz
I'll second this
Jason Torres
Read the history of the genre on Wikipedia and its influences and divergences over time. That'll put it all in context. Listen to bands chronologically like that.
Tyler Bell
black sabbath by black sabbath
Henry Turner
Who does that? lol
Robert Perry

It's cheesy but a good cheesiness.
Ryan Scott
Judas Priest for heavy metal
Plini for prog metal
Baroness for fun metal
Listen to Deafheaven to get into wall of sound type stuff
Carson Hughes
Listen to every Death album in order
Cooper Myers
Go listen to rust in piece
Ethan Turner
I think you're going to like the classics; Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Metallica, Megadeth. As an entry point to extreme metal I'd recommend In Flames, Burzum and Gojira. I don't think you should listen to full albums of extreme metal. Just find singular songs you like to build up your tolerance.
