I love Mastodon's "Leviathan", and whilst ignoring the majority of their music, I think Mayhem still has to be one of the metalest things out there.

Hear the pounding army of the night
The call of metal summons us tonight
And gather we on this site
To behold the power and the might
We wear leather, we wear spikes, we rule the night
Off with the lights, hear the screams
See the banging heads awaken to their dreams.
The sound of metal so loud it cracks the beams
Played by warriors called the Metal Kings.
A hero's welcome for those who heed the call.
We are together, we are all.
With hands high fists fill the air
Against the world we stand.
Hands high forever we'll be there,
Gloves of Metal rule tonight. Yea
A hero's welcome for those who heed the call.
We are together, we are all.
With hands high fists fill the air
Against the world we stand.
Hands high forever we'll be there,
Gloves of Metal rule tonight. Yea
Leather, Metal, Spikes and Chains
Gloves of Metal raised to show the brave.
Into the darkness march the armies of the night.
Bound by metal we live the fight.
We wear leather, we wear spikes, we rule the night
With hands high fists fill the air
Against the world we stand.
Hands high forever we'll be there,
Gloves of Metal rule tonight.

what else.
I was going to be a neo-deconstructivist but mom wouldn't let me.

Electric Wizard.

Though you probably have to define exactly what kind of "metal" we're talking about here because we could just go ahead and say Black Boned Angel though I'm not sure how much that would impress your lady friend. I mean, it should but you may just end up boring her to tears.

What about Megadeath?

Hilarious, sound plague. missed q, though.

Nipples, have you considered trying to impress this metal loving girl with things other than metal?

Also, as angrymice said, are you sure about what kind of metal she likes? There could be nothing more deflating than boning up on all manner of kvlt black metal, the broodalest death metal, and the sickest pornogoregrind out there, only to find metal to this person means "recent metallica".

Also, yes to dethklok and metalocalypse.
