Apologies in advance for how long this is, there’s so much to possibly recommend. Beast in Black is pretty good if you’re looking for 80’s vibes with a legit singer. For power metal metal I’d look at Powerwolf or Sabaton.
Lamb of god is great if you like groove metal - their riffs are amazing. DÅÅTH is also great in that respect - super talented band overall.
If you want to dip into prog metal it’s not everybody’s taste but Dream Theater has some great songs and their instrumentals are crazy good.
Allegaeon is another great one - melodic/technical death metal. I’d recommend Proponent for Sentience.

I love heavy music and it seems the older I get the more I like it. I’m that grey haired guy you see at a concert and think, he must be lost. And damn you rona for getting all the concerts cancelled!

With that said - Until the end & After the burial have been taking up my time lately.

Havok and Warbringer are fantastic newer Thrash metal bands. I say newer because they’re about 10 years in. The new Lamb of God record is really good. More like the old days on this one.

If you like a healthy dose of humor with your metal, try out a German band called Eskimo Callboy. Not all their songs are funny, but a lot are. Here's a sample.

They have a bunch of other good songs as well, prob my fav band as of the last couple months so far. hope they tour in U.S one day.

Kill your Idols
Voodoo Circus
Final Dance
Broadways Gonna Kill us
Rehab
Hurricane

Meliorist is another great band that is from Aussie. Very small but there newest album pattern is more mainstream but is unique.

 
^ That's cool, a little bit prog rock, some interesting key changes.

Avenged Sevenfold?

Yeah, I really like them too. New album on the way this year or so they say. It can be a little weird trying to get into their stuff because each album is fairly different. I'd say try Nightmare and if you like that then branch out.
