Tiamat, for Satanic doom metal.

Emperor, Immortal, Gorgoroth, Darkthrone, Behemoth, et al for black metal.

Occasionally a death metal band will have satanic influences (Slayer, for example, had mildly satanic vocals).

Be aware, however, no matter how much "satanic" "metal" you listen to, you will not automatically:

  1. Take over the world (probably)
  2. Be able to steal people's souls
  3. Be awesome, or grim, kvlt und truly metal

I don't think that any of them are REALLY Satanic, it's just an image that they promote to appeal to their fans.
I very much doubt that any heavy metal bands or singers really worship the Devil or practice the black arts, but they like to create the impression that they do in order to shock the public and to appeal to rebellious youth who wish to do the same- some punk bands in the '70s were similar. But if you asked any band member seriously in a private interview if they were on 'the Dark Side' as it were, they'd probably say no. Ozzy Osbourne, Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson all liked to create that impression, but in fact they are really good people- some heavy metal artistes may be athiests, but this is different from actively worshipping evil things.

However, it does have to be said that it isn't very sensible to even play up to such an image. There are evil spirits and demonic forces around which can take advantage of actions that are done when not even meant seriously (i.e. displaying crosses upside-down, inverted pentagrams, incantations of black spells etc.) When heavy metal bands do this it's naive of them not to appreciate the dangers, and one can only pray that God will protect them against the potential consequences.
