You hate 50 Cent's vulgar lines but you will like a man who paints his body black and bites of rat's heads and spits them into the crowd, come one Ymir!

I'm in the same situation. Some of my favorite bands do some odd stuff, such as:
Slipknot - who does many bizarre acts on stage, including a fist fight breaking out between two members on stage.
Marilyn Manson - who has committed so many obscenities on stage he is no longer allowed to perform in the state of Indiana.
Slayer/Lamb of God/Dimmu Borgir - very strong anti-Christian message, and some Satan worship themes.
Ozzy - he has snorted ants, bit the heads of doves off, and done so many drugs he would need a forest full of trees to have enough paper to print the results of a drug test if he takes one.
Hatebreed - very violent and angry lyrics.

Metal is dark and evil...

Not all metal is. Allthough to be considered heavy metal, it is mandatory to worship Satan in at least 90% of all songs.
Song non-dark/evil metal bands; Dragonforce, Dream Theater, Symphony-X, and Motorhead.

I suppose you are right panda, my bad. That was hypocritical. But i never liked the beat and tune of heavy metal anyways. I think only the younger generation like rap/hip hop.

I vote other.

I enjoy a wide variety of music and my favorite right now is probably classical and world/folk traditional. Especially artists such as Kathy Mattea, Loreena McKennitt, Dougie MacLean....Tool. Okay, I really like Tool.

I will admit that this Scandinavian Death Metal, pretty much all of Hip Hop and all country music since the demise of Johnny Cash brings on Suicidal Tendencies.

There are plenty of upbeat metal songs. Try power metal.

And also "dark" songs aren't evil at all. Dark songs are dark specifically because they do not glorify the themes they discuss but recognise them as tragic, unpleasant etc.

Huh. I find Hatebreed songs to typically be empowering; at least, they have that effect on me. I could be ready to just give up on everything, but then throw in a Hatebreed CD, give it a listen, and feel ready to go out, kick a$s, and give everything another go again... They are near or at the top of my list when it comes to must-haves for listening when I'm going through crappy times.

Not necessarily. My brother is 10 years older than me and he listens to it. I however cannot stand it.

Yes, the most definitely are filled with powerful, empowering lyrics as well. I guess you could call it a positive anger. Overcoming obstacles and obliterating any and all barriers is the best way I can describe their music.
Hatebreed has also had the most violent mosh pits I have been in during a concert.

Hatebreed - Facing What Consumes You
Facing what consumes you is the only way to be free.
Released from those poisonous fears.
Resurrected once and for all.
You want me to hold my tongue
Then why the **** am I here?
You want me to bottle my rage
Cause you never had the heart to say what I say.
My life, my body, my pride.
You have no opinion, no right.
I've built myself nothing like you.
My refusal is my way of life.
Doubt me, Hate me
You're the inspiration I need
My life, my body, my pride
You have no say
My life, my body, my pride
You don't have say
Facing what consumes you is the only way to be free.
Though I'm still far from perfection.
I stay relevant, I'm still vigilante.
I have so much more to say.
I have so much more to fight for.
I've used your lack of inspiration.
As my awakening, its my ability to live forever
By my own command.
To be vehement, remain confident.
Doubt me, Hate me
You're the inspiration I need
You're all the inspiration I need.
Your doubt, it fuels me.
Your hate, it drives me.
The challenge ignites me.
You make me fight harder.
