What do you plan on playing, anyway?

Most rock can be done with barre chords (at most). Most metal can be done with power chords. These are really fucking easy to learn, since they're the same up and down the frets.

The problem is when you get into different voicings and the like. And you may not need that. If you want to play leads, scales are a must. A lot of shredding comes down to playing arpeggios really fast. Solos in Rock and Metal tend to involve blues scales or minor pentatonics, which are similar.\

If you do want to go all Dream Theater, you'll need to pick up a dozen or so theory books.
