If I helped you pick some headphones, post something telling me. You could also bump the thread so more people can see this. I have to stop the Beats and Bose rampage!

Since you like metalcore, I can't help but recommend the Grado SR60is for your tastes. They stretch your budget by around 20 or 30 bucks, but just consider them. The in-your-face signature is LEGENDARY for rock.
Otherwise, back to the budget range. For on-ears, Koss Portapros (I know I recommend them a lot, but there really is nothing better at the price point.
For IEMs, there are a few worth considering. The Brainwavz M1 is within your price range, but the M2 is a considerable improvement at $60, and I'd say it is worth it, but I'm not you. You might also consider the Brainwavz Pro Alpha. If you want to save money, the Meelectronics M6, CX21, or M21.

Klipsch Image S4 (These woud probably be your best bet), Monster Turbine, Head-Direct/Hifiman RE-0 (Not as bassy as others), Brainwavz M2.
When you say open for in-ears, I'm assuming you mean earbuds. I've got you covered. The Yuin PK2s (or PK1s if you can spend more) are the best earbuds available. They look cheap, but that is not the case!
