Know what your chem class taught you about metals: they are malleable, meaning it can be shaped in any way. And metal music is the same as the former and that's were "metal" got its name.

The best form of music for fighting, getting things done, and generally feeling high and aggressive. There is a really weak form of metal out now called Nu-Metal, in which the guitarists are always proud of the fact they can't play, and the lyrics are utterly unintelligible. It doesnt matter though as long as you have an eyebrow piercing, a goatee beard and live with your mom. That's not proper metal, it's just gay and you know it.
Proper metal is Black Sabbath, Pantera, Ozzy and anything else which doesn't take itself too seriously. It helps if the guitarist can play proper guitar solos too, but really being able to drink English quantities of beer and roll joints is the acceptable minimum for a metal guitarist. Being too good means you spent too much time practising as a kid and not enough time puking and laughing about it with the bad influence kids at school.

Dimebag Darrell (note daft name) had a stupid shaped guitar, sweated a lot, like to get stoned and had a pink beard. He could also play properly. Hence he is a great example of a "proper metal" guitarist.

A genre of copycats.Has many subgenres which are created when one band comes up with some new goth fetish such as pierced cock metal or upsidedown cross rammed up your own butthole metal.Which then is immediately copied by all of the mindless idiots and morons which is how all new subgenres of metal are born.Sometimes they like to add the word "core" to the end in an attempt to make the new subgenre seem more edgy or hard."TheI got 666 tattooed on my cock subgenre of metal is really misunderstood man." Or "oh wow check out my mom fucked a goat and I took a shit on her chest metal,it's really the best existing example of animal porn core.
