What's some good Metal?
I'm trying to broaden my horizons and find some Metal bands that appeal to me.From what I've heard it all sounds too similar and the singers always sounds like they're being savagely raped and/or having their balls slammed between a door.The closest I can get is doomy stuff like Black Sabbath and whatnot.

Maybe give some free advice about: Music?
Personally most of my favourite stuff includes bands like Iron Maiden, Manowar, Judas Priest, Helloween and stuff like that. All have vocalists that range from competent to pretty good.
However, if you like the darker Sabbath type thing, you should be looking more towards Goth, Symphonic, and Black metal. Its a little hard to distinguish the boundaries of each category these days, but here are some suggestions:
Nightwish: Symphonic/ Goth. About as good a vocalist as they come. She was really something. Very dramatic style of music.
Theater of Tragedy (the early albums up to Aegis)
Tiamat
Moonspell
My Dying Bride
You can search wikipedia for the metal types I listed and they will provide you with a link to a list of bands.

Here are a couple that I love that are a little out there. I've got eclectic tastes, so I can sympathize with not liking a lot of metal. I've included some links so you can have a listen.
Opeth is a death metal band. Their lyrics are beautiful, almost like poetry. Their vocal style is that death metal kind of roaring, but with really nice singing mixed in. I love them, and I'm not a metal person.
One of their less metally songs... great voice!

Something more hardcore (live, so it sounds a little different from usual):

Apocalyptica is another neat one (from Finland). They do their metal using cellos. They actually do remakes of a lot of Metallica. Pretty neat.
Enter Sandman:

I think this is one of their own... "Quutamo"

Rammstein is really fun. They're German, so the music is, needless to say, not in English. Terribly catchy, though.
My personal favourite by them:
