Thall is a subgenre of progressive metal that originated in the early 2010s, primarily associated with a distinct, downtuned guitar sound and polyrhythmic grooves. Characterized by a dark and atmospheric tone, Thall combines the complexity of progressive metal with the heavy chugging and syncopated riffs reminiscent of djent—a genre with which it shares close ties. The bands within this niche often employ dissonant chords, extended-range guitars, and a focus on rhythm over melody to create a brooding and immersive sonic landscape. Vocal styles vary from clean singing to harsh growls and screams, adding to the emotional intensity and depth of the music. While less known in the mainstream, Thall maintains a dedicated following, appealing to listeners who crave technical prowess infused with a sense of foreboding and weight.
