You have a lot of metal to familiarize yourself with then! At least 2/3 of that list is fairly well know and/or have been around a long time.

Lol yeah 2/3+. Candlemass rule. Also GWAR have a lot of great songs, their discography is huge. Immortal Corrupter is their best and thrashiest song to me. God damn that's a cool song.

Blood_Drive-
Check out Amon Amarth...I usually don't like bands that talk about stuff like goblins, dragons, and sh** like that, these guys write a lot about Viking stuff, but they're really good.
And yes, you should also check Candlemass.
