metal music
Loud distorted rock
Metal music is a genre of rock characterized by amplified distortion, extended guitar solos, emphatic beats, and overall loudness.
Emerging in the late 1960s and 1970s with bands like Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, metal has spawned countless subgenres: heavy metal, death metal, black metal, thrash.
The culture prizes technical virtuosity and often explores dark or aggressive themes.
Usually shortened to just metal: What kind of music do you listen to? Metal, mostly.
