So here is a tough one, how many bands you know you can put in one category only, sometimes so hybridly intertwined the only thing you are certain is that they are definetly metal.

id say these are very genre packed: cirith ungol, dwarr, master's hammer, black hole, full moon (gb) etc id classify parabellum as wtf metal so it belongs to the list as well in my book

HAMMERS OF MISFORTUNE, NUCLEAR DEATH are sounding pretty unique to me.

Some of ROOT's material is totally unclassifiable, like Temple in the Underworld. Also, this VELLE WITCH demo... Heavy, Speed, and Doom? Sometimes even a bit black metal at times... Insanity!!!

I think Macabre and Graf Spee are pretty unique too. Also Paul Chain goes through different styles and he's pretty good at most of them.

Oh, and Medieval. They're definitely metal but I don't know in which subgenre would they belong to.

What?

Minus "Fatal Portrait" King Diamond's solo stuff is pretty straight forward Heavy Metal.

Celtic Frost as well. Good call on MEDIEVAL, no clue what they play.

Well, if you open ANY magazine from the 80s KD is labeled as black metal. Just saying.

And why would 86 be different from 87, 88, 89, etc. if anything the follow ups are even faster and speedier imo.
