Episode 6 - Hardcore, Part 2: Metal

Americanhardmind and Synchronicity introduce our Top Hardcore Bands, as in the essence of each musical sub-genre, beginning with Part 2: Metal.

Metal (djent/thrash/industrial), or "the essence":
Metal embodies djent, thrash and industrial sounds, but its span is all metal subs (see wiki for more). This is the basest sub of all hardcore music in Instrument, Mood-Image and Lyric. There is tribality, as sounds flow from one and into another and are reciprocally-influenced as such. Later Metal was more produced and technical yet retained the speediest and heaviest sound of all subs. Metal began as industrial, hence the sound produced - downtuned, grinding and sonic. That core was merged with a faster, shorter, imperfect edge as punk and later developed into thrash through metal. Eventually, a protoype sound combined of these elements (tribality/flow/reciprocity/technique/production/speed/heavy/downtuned/grinding/sonic) was later called djent and is a common riff of all bands included.

Black Sabbath (68/70) "Iron Man"-"Paranoid"
