and again again o the original poster...
what gear do you already have? if you want to do synth meets metal you will need effects for the guitars and a variety of synths for a variety of sounds. you can do that fairly cheaply however, no need to get all slutty just yet. a cheap epiphone, and a line 6 pod, and a multieffects rack like a zoom 9xxx series or alesis quadraverb gt or similar would cover you for guitar treatment fairly well.
synth wise, a cheap fm synth like the tx-7 or tx-802 or pd synth like the casio cz 1000 or better yet the vz 8 or 10m or vz-1.
cheap sampler with resonant filters, emu emax I or II, ensoniq mirage, esi-32, akai s3200 etc...
cheap subtractive v.a. or dco/analog filter or pcm osc analog filter hybrid. korg dw-8000, ensoniq sq-80/esq-1, yamaha an1x, roland sh-201/jp8000, etc...
good mics for vocals and or drums or found sounds collecting (if you decide to go that route)
decent mixer anything from a behringer for now to a mackie or soundcraft etc... just something used that is fairly clean sounding for recording
daw software... there's free stuff like audacity for recording, semi-shareware like reaper and full blown like ableton live and sonar, logic, cubase etc... pick what your budget allows now and move up over time for the extra features/support also there's a ton of free soft synths and effects for that daw package. google kvr and you could get the free versions of the major synth catagories i listed for now
