The new wave of speed metal is a high-octane, relentless subgenre of heavy metal music that weds the fiery aggression of thrash metal with the gritty, driving speed of old-school metal. It distills aggression and raw power through incendiary guitar riffs, thunderous drumming, and a vehement vocal delivery that harks back to the genre's 1980s roots. Inspired by the aesthetics and intensity of the likes of Black Viper and Indian Nightmare, this rebirth of razor-sharp metal pays homage to its forebears while injecting a fresh, blistering energy. Bands like Vulture and Diabolic Night deliver a frenetic pace and electrifying guitar solos, ensuring a relentless auditory assault that is as nostalgically familiar as it is refreshingly brutal, signaling a relentless pursuit of metal purity amidst a contemporary landscape of diverse and hybridized musical styles.
