Progressive groove metal is a subgenre characterized by its complex, polyrhythmic grooves and intricate instrumentation, often featuring extended-range guitars and unconventional time signatures. Emerging in the late 1990s and early 2000s, this style drew from the technicality of progressive metal and the heaviness of groove metal, with bands incorporating atmospheric soundscapes and introspective lyrics. The genre's popularity peaked in the mid-2000s, with key bands pushing the boundaries of heavy music. Culturally, progressive groove metal reflected a sense of disillusionment and introspection, with lyrics often exploring themes of social critique and personal struggle. This genre sits at the intersection of progressive rock, djent, and groove metal, but its unique blend of technicality and atmospherics sets it apart.
