What is Heavy Metal?

At Wikipedia they say:

Heavy metal (or simply metal or heavy rock) is a genre of rock music that developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s. With roots in blues rock and psychedelic/acid rock, the bands that created heavy metal developed a thick, massive sound, characterized by highly amplified distortion, extended guitar solos, emphatic beats, and overall loudness.


The Wind of change

I must say, that I love this song, as it is part of my own history and because I grew up in the neigbourhhood of Scorpions. They where always some of the idols of my youth.


Nickelback - Photograph


Creed - One Last Breath

What a video - Enjoy this slow metal from Creed

And read what other say.

I don't care what criticism they got in the past nor do I care about the over usage of green screen effects and the somewhat crappy late 90s Super Nintendo- donkey- kong- country- style 3D CGI Graphics in this video. I'm mesmerized by everything in this and I love it and I always will.


BONUS - 2 hours metal ballads

Here is my vote for a metal slow song.

\m/

Thanks - I just figured out that there are several definitons for SLOW

LOL. I like my metal pretty fast and loud so this is about as slow as it goes for me. =)

A new one for me. The audio on this is particularly good through my big speakers.

I just went back and checked out your post with Diamond Head who I have never really heard before!! Its great to hear new music from the people here! =)

It's old music, but I don't think they are as well known as they should be. I only really know that album, but it's a good one

Jooo, a great set of 3!

Epitaph is epic, wonderful song that reminds me of a desolate rambling western scenario somehow.

Maybe Greg Lake’s vocal has something to do with this. Btw I love his voice.

Got to agree, Greg Lake had a great voice.

Yeah, Epitaph ist der Hammer, ist auf meiner Lieblingsliederliste gaaaaanz oben.!

Here are a few suggestions. I love a bit of rock

1.) Pantera - Cowboys From Hell

This song always gets me pumped! One if the first metal songs I really got into.

2.) System is a Down - War?

SOAD is such a great band. I've been getting back into then recently. Screw all of the radio hits! There are a bunch of great tracks deep in their albums. I specifically love a live version of this song.

3.) Metallica - Master of Puppets

I don't think you can honestly round out any sort of metal list without Master of Puppets... I'm pretty sure it's illegal. 🤘

Disclaimer: I don't particularly care for slow metal songs... That's why I'm going fast ✊(sorry in advance) #metalweekend
@detlev

As I was reading Pantera I though myself

Jooo - just another definiton for SLOW ;-)

rock music is a hallmark of metal boys, from the loud sounds of their songs to their distinctive styles.
creating a band like this is not easy, in addition to the vocalist who has a sound power to his music players who have outstanding skills, the most I like from this band type is drummer and bass player, because both are my soul.

Awesome idea, I'll submit one later. If you hear just one you like, it will open up the door to a band you maybe would have never connected to before.

Oups, da muss ich jetzt aber aufpassen, dass ich nicht wieder in ein Musikmarathonwochenende abgleite! Danke dir @detlev - coole Idee. Und ich habe dich - typisch für mich - falsch verstanden! Argrrr. Ich habe einen ExtraPost gemacht, weil ich dachte, es wird zu voll hier. Auf die Idee wäre ich gar nicht gekommen... Also, nix für ungut ... Ist ja vielleicht auch ein bisschen Werbung für dich ;) Schönes Wochenende - slow or heavy or metallic.
Und jetzt habe ich auch noch gesehen, dass man anscheinend das Startfoto von @detlev in den Artikel einfügen kann... Noch ein "Fettnäpfchen"...

Der extra Post ist super, so hast Du auch mehr SBD im Topf.

Das ist alles nur Fun hier und da zählt nun mal der Spass

Jo, danke dir! Ich hoffe, hier kann jeder Spaß verstehen ;)

two hours of ballads... for romantic momments
I have selected a lot of good ballads, someday I'll share in #metalweekend

I'm at Protest the Hero right now on their 10year anniversary tour of their album 'fortress'. The whole album is an epic masterpiece.

Wow, that is damn cool.

Have a great time at this event!

It was a great show! They played their asses off

Yeah, Creed's caught a lot of crap. But I think the lyrics are excellent, and with Mark Tremonte, I don't know how they suck.
