Heavy metal.

Today I am going to talk about the genre of music Heavy metal (metal). Metal music started coming around late 60's and early 70's. It was introduced mainly in the United States as well as United Kingdom. Heavy metal is know for there extended guitar solo's, massive sound and loudness. Some of the first metal bands were, deep purple, judas priest, led zepplin and black sabbath. I personally like these four bands a lot. Fans who enjoy and listen to metal are commonly known as "metalheads". From the main genre there grew many many more different metal genre's ex here are a few sub genre's of metal, death metal, glam metal, speed metal and stoner rock.  Most metal song lyrics are based on dark or depressing subjects.  An example of the subject is the song by black sabbath called fairies wear boots. That song is talking about the side affects of taking drugs to you and your body. some physical gestures of this music while at a concert or just listening to it are, head banging, devil horns. Also there is crown serfing and air guitar, but the most popular of all at a concert is moshing. The metal fashion is mostly long hair to symbolise hate, jeans, black t-shirt, leather or jean jacket and boots. Well there is much more to metal than just that so if u would like to know more im sure u can find a lot on the internet. Now here is one of my favorite song by Black sabbath.
