The vast majority of Dolly’s music is disposable, mainstream Nashville country music that was shitted on by most of the country when she was releasing it. And all of these Dolly praise posts devote the majority of space to her career outside of music because most people can’t stand Dolly’s actual music outside of a few songs that got famous because better singers covered them. She’s obviously a hard worker and a brilliant capitalist, but her musical legacy is 90% mediocre, forgettable music in a genre that many in the country outright despise. Every other post about mainstream country music is about how it sucks. Most folks under 30 know Dolly more for being a wealthy saint than for her music. And if they knew her by her music first like a lot of us who grew up with the country music that the rest of the country was making fun of, then there would always be a caveat to Parton praise. There isnt because folks like what Dolly represents, not her music.

Automatics are AC/DC and Zeppelin. From there, it's all personal preference. Could easily make arguments for VH, Thin Lizzy, Deep Purple, Sabbath, Queen, or tons of hair metal bands.

Personally, I'd say Thin Lizzy and VH.

The Melvins. Cited as an influence by many bands you know well. Sonic Youth, if you don't know your Sonic Youth a wonderful journey awaits you.

I'd highly recommend The Gloom in the Corner. Not all of their songs are angry, and some aren't the most aggressive or heavy either, but they have a decent number of angry sounding songs. Genre is metalcore, but many of their other songs take on various different influences.

Some examples:

Behemoth

Misanthropic

Rodent

Rōnin ft. Ryo Kinoshita (ex-Crystal Lake)

Not Hell a Fury

Interesting exercise. I think two are no brainers: Led Zep and AC/DC, but it’s a dogfight for the other two slots between Deep Purple, Van Halen, Guns n Roses, Kiss and Aerosmith. You could even throw Def Leppard in there.

If it had been a better area, they couldn’t have afforded the land or had the ability to make it the way they wanted. So it’s admirable, but necessary. And of course, the locals get some nice service jobs, but Dolly is making the real money.
