Metal music, often referred to simply as metal, is a genre of rock music characterized by its heavy use of distorted electric guitars, aggressive drumming, and strong vocals. It emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s, drawing influence from earlier rock, blues, and psychedelia. Metal is known for its complex compositions, intricate guitar solos, and, in many subgenres, high-pitched singing or growling techniques.
The genre encompasses a wide range of styles, including but not limited to heavy metal, thrash metal, death metal, black metal, and doom metal. Each subgenre has its distinct characteristics, themes, and musical techniques, often exploring darker or more intense lyrical content compared to mainstream rock. Metal music has a dedicated fan base and has significantly influenced popular culture, fashion, and attitudes, often associated with a sense of rebellion and individuality. The genre continues to evolve and diversify, maintaining a global presence and influence in the music industry.
