Traditional Heavy Metal
Traditional heavy metal is a powerful and energetic genre rooted in the classic sound of the late 1970s and 1980s, characterized by soaring vocals, galloping riffs, and melodic yet aggressive guitar work. It blends heavy, blues-based riffing with fast-paced drum patterns and anthemic choruses, often evoking themes of power, mythology, and resilience. Bands in this style, such as Grand Magus and Rampart, embrace a raw, straightforward approach, while artists like Tony Iommi helped define its signature dark and heavy tone. With a mix of speed, melody, and intensity, traditional heavy metal remains a timeless force in the world of heavy music.
