Metal bands are musical groups that primarily play heavy metal, a genre characterized by aggressive rhythms, distorted guitars, powerful vocals, and complex compositions. Emerging in the late 1960s and early 1970s, metal has evolved into various subgenres, including classic metal, thrash, death, black, and power metal. Iconic bands like Black Sabbath, Metallica, Iron Maiden, and Slayer have shaped the genre’s sound and culture. Known for their energetic performances and devoted fan bases, metal bands often explore themes of fantasy, mythology, and social issues. The genre continues to thrive, with new bands emerging and classic acts influencing generations of musicians.
