How about Sonic Youth? I know, they're my favorite band of all time too, but you have to admit they could be just as easy to hate as they are to love...
But honestly, I think anyone who hates the Melvins on the basis that a good number of their songs are slow and sludgy hasn't really heard a whole lot of their stuff. Mind you, I've only got Houdini, but I wouldn't call every song on there "metal"...
