I think you could get down on all of Tool's albums. With an open ear and open mind you will enjoy all of their albums immensely. I really feel you on being bored with rap. I hardly ever listen to rap any more and I'm always looking for something to take its place since rap has become so weak lately. If you haven't listened to Tool before, I'd get Lateralus or Aenima first. I wouldn't say that Tool's CDs are all "heavy", most of the songs have melodies that build up to a climax. It's hard to explain but it isn't just thrash rock at all......
About Godsmack: I haven't heard the new CD but I was curious how it was. I bought their first CD and it's pretty good.......

Yeah check out Tool's catalog like Cranky said. I'd start with Aenima and then Lateralus. Acctually even 10,000 Days (would be a good one too) Undertow and Opiate are great cd's but are quite heavier. But Tool has a lot of melodic break downs and Maynard has both one of the softest at times and hardest at times voices in rock music I've ever heard.
Oh yeah and you can't go wrong with Alice in Chains pick Dirt for their heavier side (not all just heavy though) and Jar of Flies for their softer side (not all just soft though) both are classic albums IMO. Layne Stayley is one of the greatest vocalists ever IMO and that of many others.

Yeah Layne Staley passed away in 2002 from a drug overdose (big suprise.) He died eight years to the day (April 5th) that Kurt Cobain passed away.
It's such a shame that Layne got so wrapped up in heroin...he was an amazing singer and artist.
You should check out those two Alice in Chains albums if you haven't Cranky, I think you would enjoy them.
