You should swing by sometime soon and check them out for yourself. You're close enough!!!
I don't metal much. I've been listening to light rock actually. Give me a song to try? If I can stomach it - I'll try, but I'm not likely to know what to listen for because that hard metal music is grating to me. I might end up disliking the speakers at the point they start streaming metal music

Yeah, I need to come check out the dual Caps anyway.
Try Fade To Black by Metallica. Great crunchy rhythm guitars, beautiful guitar solos, great bassline during the verses, and a chorus so good it doesn't need or have vocals. If you find you don't like this song, lie to me.
For something heavier try Crippled and Broken by Kataklysm. You may not make it through that song....
