of course it's not "just", as i said, they are massively influential; still, most of their style comes from the more frenetic parts of sabbath. their introduction of the twin guitar attack has more to do with the obscurer strand of british blues rock like wishbone ash and bloodwyn pig, who themselves were influenced by sabbath.

i don't really consider alice cooper metal, except on influential impact, but the music was far more expansive.

the nuge was more into the loincloth, wasn't he? and the bulletboys, hahahaha, they were like bon jovi with worse songs, they didn't wear bulletbelts.
motörhead, thrash and black metal bands are mostly the ones who wear/wore bullet belts.

about ac/dc, they are kinda like rock but, coming at a certain time, they had to be lumped somewhere and stayed there, and that genre was heavy metal; they are coming more from the chuck berry school of rock, though. it's hilarious when a generic metalhead is exposed to, say, the cramps and acts all macho like "uhh, i can't stand this shit, what the fuck?!" and then ac/dc is played and goes "fuck yeah! this is music"
i don't like ac/dc at almost all, but they put on a hell of a good show, they can fucking play live with balls.
