HEAVY METALHeavy metal is what started it all, from Black Sabbath onward although the phrase came to mean "anything loud and distorted" in mainstream usage. Its blues and jazz basis, but strange insistence on a neo-classical treatment of modality, propelled this band to the front of a rising new movement. Today the heavy metal genre includes doom metal, who are old school metalheads who play very slowly to depress you.
