Ive never been a huge metal head. My brother is a massive black metal fan and always has something new to listen to.
The only heavy stuff i listen to often is the Melvins, Eyehategod, Superjoint Ritual and Pantera. Thats all i used to listen to back in early 2000. Now its all other types of stuff. But all old.

I am not really much into the metal bands from this decade, but from what I have seen the "biggest" band as far as album/ticket sales is unfortunately Avenged Sevenfold, and they came out in the early 2000's. I remember seeing them in 2004 at a festival and they played one of the smaller stages, and now they changed their sound to radio friendly metal and headlined the Mayhem festival last year which is held in outdoor amphitheaters that hold 20,000-25,000 people. I think the most current metal bands that are the biggest draws are still bands from the 2000's like Lamb of God, Mastodon, Killswitch Engage.
As far as mainstream popularity, it looks like there will never be another band as big as Metallica. Here's a good article on that subject
