Metal started as a subgenre of rock, and came from blues- and psyhedelic rock in the late 60s. Rock and metal education thread

Metal is:
-Louder volume -Blues scales -Strong vocals -Shock value -Extended solos -Double guitars Also, metal is a LOT more complex than most types of rock (riffs and solo work, I mean). I think a lot of rock music has simple, rather short solos, but metal solos tend to be a lot longer and with more bluesy improvisation. |

Metal has a higher concentration of heavier elements than Rock does.
That's the Science lesson over.

So can metal. Take Clutch, Motörhead, Orange Goblin, Black Sabbath and Corrosion of Conformity as examples. I'm talking about definable standards of a genre. It doesn't mean they can't be innovative.
