Interesting! I've never seen Industrial referred to as a form of Metal. So you'd say bands like Skinny Puppy, Download and Suicide Commando are heavy metal? I've always thought industrial (or post industrial, or whatever) was a bit different from metal. The complete lack of guitars in many industrial songs, for example - doesn't seem like metal. I know Fear Factory confused things a bit, but most bands don't cross the two, and even when FF did, they lost piles of metal fans. (At least, they lost plenty of metal fans I knew.)
Anyways, I quite like metal in many forms, though not as many as when I was younger. Opeth are a great band, I'm a big fan of the Deftones (if you think they're metal), and classic Iron Maiden is great fun!
*edited to say I can't believe I forgot Anthrax, one of my favorite bands of all time - their "bring the noise" with Public Enemy got me into metal
