I will give you some bands, generally the really classic ones (the "musts" within the genres). I will focus on the genres that I know something about. Here are some suggestions within a few categories:
Heavy metal: Iron Maiden (my fav), Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Motorhead
Power Metal: Manowar (love or hate type band... I think they rock), Helloween, Metal Church, Sonata Arctica
Thrash Metal: Metallica (80's material), Slayer (80's and some 90's material), Megadeth, Testament
Symphonic, Goth, and/or Black: Nightwish (highly recommended), Merciful Fate, Bathory, Type O Negative, Cradle of Filth
There are also some highly popular bands within genres like Industrial, Progressive, and Groove metal (bands like Rammstein, Dream Theater, and Pantera respectively). Dont know if its your cup of tea, it isnt mine.
One of the easiest things is to check out a few videos of these bands on youtube. Its easy to spot new bands too by following some of the suggested links. Also wikipedia has a whole article on metal subgenres if you need more names of bands etc.
