You'd be amazed at how fast and how heavy some of the rock was that spawned so many of the bands mentioned above...
Sabbath may be old, but without them, there'd be no metal. There was nothing like it before they came out. They rocked, very hard and very fast sometimes.
Some of their stuff is sort of psychedelic-jazzy, but check them out. Every album up to Never Say Die has phenomenalsongs on it.
Also, Deep Purple were incredible. Forget Smoke on the Water; listen to the album In Rock some time...

Then there's Rush... Cygnus X-1, La Villa Strangiato, YYZ (which is based on the rhythm of the Toronto VOR Morse ID)... all heavy, frantic tunes. Rush came up with some of the best metal riffs ever.

Motorhead is another old band that will fracture your skull...

Or howzabout some early great punk rock, like Black Flag?
Or the true fathers of punk rock, The Stooges? Fun House is 45 minutes of howling rock insanity...

Now you're talkin,

Rush are one of my favourite bands YYZ is THE best bass line out there.

You don't need screaming and growling idiots to have music that cleaves your skull in heavy-ness, in fact that quite often takes away from the whole thing.

Like Rottydaddy said if you want aggressive you can't go wrong with songs like:

Black Sabbath - Hole in the Sky
Motorhead - Overkill
Rush - Cygnus X-1

Or some more modern:

Alter Bridge - Bitch Slap
Savatage - Taunting Cobras
Muse - Hysteria
