Good post, but lacks some very obvious material - Pantera, Megadeth, Metallica, Anthrax, Sepultura. At least you didn't miss Slayer.

Generally speaking, I call "Heavy Metal" stuff that sounds a bit like Metallica's music on Justice for All and later albums.
Motorhead, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath etc.. I just usually wanna call it Hard Rock.
