Of course I agree with a lot of names already mentioned, but I thought Iā€™d throw Billy Gould out there. Iā€™m a fan of FNM, and his playing is a prominent part of their soundā€¦

Too late, heā€™s already inspired & motivated too many metalheads. Whether he considers himself metal or not is irrelevant because all the metalheads already consider him metal & relevant.

In fact I was just listening to this song earlier by Whisky Ritual that mentions Killmister.
Lyrics: ā€œ666 problems on my mind
This fuckin speed wonā€™t let me sleep tonight
666 liver like Killmisterā€

Michael Bishop aka Beefcake the Mighty from GWAR. I think heā€™s the main one that stands out to me that hasnā€™t already been mentioned in this thread.
