Heavy Metal

Heavy metal is a genre of rock music known for its amplified distortion, powerful rhythms, and aggressive vocals, often characterized by thematic elements of fantasy, mythology, and existentialism. Originating in the late 1960s and early 1970s, it is defined by its intense soundscapes, featuring fast tempos, virtuosic guitar solos, and emphatic beats. Bands like Артур Беркут and Сергей Маврин display the genre's diverse linguistic and cultural influences, while groups such as Let It All Burn and Iron Driver blend old-school metal with modern twists. The genre can evoke emotions ranging from rage to mystery, emphasizing dramatic intensity and theatricality, attracting a passionate and diverse global fanbase.
