Pantera is definitely an anomaly. A hard-core metal band that counts david alan coe among it's staunchest supporters.

Also, I think we all know about Ted Nugent. I don't know Metallica's political views, other than the Napster brouhaha.

Overlooking momentarily that I think Nugent can't play his way out of a paper bag, writes puerile and derivative music and never ceases to overestimate his own talent, yes, he is conservative. Which is, most likely, not a good thing for conservatives.

As for Metallica, "Master of Puppets" and "Don't Tred on Me" come immediately to mind as fairly evident of a more conservative mindset.

Conservative Metallers:

Slayer
Zakk Wylde

When you can pin down Blitz from Overkill he sounds right of center.
Not sure HOW conservative he is, but he recently blasted the guy from System of a Down for being Anti-American: Evan Seinfeld (Biohazard)
Tripp Eisen (Static X)
