 Heavy metal music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Heavy metal is a genre of rock music that emerged as a defined musical style in the 1970s, having its roots in hard rock bands which, between 1967 and 1974, took blues and rock to create a hybrid with a thick, heavy, guitar-and-drums-centered sound, characterised by the use of highly amplified distortion.
Whereas a painting is experienced visually, a symphony experienced audibly, a heavy metal band's "image" and the common theme that binds all their music is expressed in the artwork on the album, the set of the stage, the tone of the lyrics, the clothes of the band, in addition to the sound of the music.
The first use of the term "heavy metal" in a song lyric is the words "heavy metal thunder" in the 1968 Steppenwolf song "Born to be Wild" (Walser 1993, p.

 Glam metal -
Glam metal is a sub-genre of heavy metal music, that arose in the late 1970s in the United States.
Mötley Crüe reunited with Vince Neil, recorded the 1997 album Generation Swine, and embarked on a successful US tour.
The decline in glam metal was further compounded by many key 80s metal bands, glam or otherwise, coincidentally either breaking up, losing significant band members, and/or releasing new albums that largely displeased existing fans.

 Progressive metal -
The high level of musical proficiency is often combined with a lyrical counterpart in the form of epic textual concepts, resulting in lengthy songs and concept albums.
Progressive metal (often shortened to prog, or prog metal when differentiating from progressive rock) is a genre of heavy metal music which shares traits with progressive rock including use of complex compositional structures, odd time signatures, and intricate instrumental playing.
It was not a typical progressive metal song, but nonetheless it opened Queensrÿche's music to a whole new legion of fans, which in turn had an effect on the popularity of other progressive metal bands of the time.

 Freeway Jam
Metal bands took punk's DIY ethic, and rawness of performance, and applied it to their power riffs, often slowing the music back down to Black Sabbath tempo.
One other key element of heavy metal was the prominence given to the bass guitar; bass-and-guitar interplay was integral to the sound; on some recordings the bass was the lead instrument, new to rock music.
Heavy Metal's great comeback, put into motion with the new wave British Metal bands and Ozzy Osbourne's rebirth, was solidified by the first bona-fide metal titans of the 1980's, Metallica.

 Amazon.ca: Sound of the Beast: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal: Books
There is little argument that heavy metal began in earnest with Black Sabbath (though the Beatles' "Helter Skelter" is considered by some to be the first heavy metal song), and Christe holds to convention and begins his metal timeline in early 1970.
If Christe is to be faulted, it is on the grounds of hero worship: he's a metal fan, scribe (a music writer living in Brooklyn) and practitioner (in a digital metal band called Black Noerd), and readers might wish for more critical analysis about the culture of fans.
Few books on heavy metal music can compare to Christe's thoughtful and passionate history of the music of the beast.
