Heavy metal is a loud, aggressive style of rock music characterized by strong rhythms, guitars, bass, and drums. The term was first used by music critic Lester Bangs in the 1970s to describe bands like Steppenwolf. Metallica and Slipknot are two famous heavy metal bands. Formed in the 1980s, Metallica drew on punk and British metal styles and helped define the genre. Slipknot, formed in 1995, rose to fame with their self-titled debut album in 1999 and are known for their unique musical style and masks. The article argues that people should not judge other musicians' styles and genres, as music allows expression in different ways.

The Essence Of Metal Music

2. Heavy metal is a loud, aggressive
style of rock music. The bands who
play heavy-metal music usually have
one or two guitars, a bass guitar and
drums. Heavy metal songs are loud
and powerful-sounding, and have
strong rhythms that are repeated.

3. The term “heavy metal” was first used to
describe a style of pop music by Lester Bangs
in Creem. It is believed that his inspiration was
Steppenwolf's “Born To Be Wild,” which
contains the phrase “heavy metal thunder.”
The etymology of “heavy metal” is somewhat
less certain.

4. One of this example is the Metallica .
Formed by guitarist Hetfield and drummer
Ulrich in 1981, Metallica drew upon punk and
early 1980s British metal styles for their first
album, Kill 'Em All (1983). The band followed
with Ride the Lightning (1984), an album that
shattered notions of what defined heavy metal.

6. Many albums that they've made since they
started the band.

7. Another band with the genre of metal is the
SLIPKNOT.
Slipknot is an American heavy metal band from
Des Moines, Iowa. The band was founded in
1995 by percussionist Shawn Crahan,
drummer Joey Jordison and bassist Paul Gray.
The band rapidly rose to fame following the
release of their eponymous debut album in
1999.

9. SLIPKNOT is one of the most famous metal
band in the music industry due to their unique
genre and style of music.In September 1995 a
band was formed called The Pale Ones. Joey
Jordison suggested naming the band Slipknot,
after a song they had made. The band started
wearing masks because Shawn Crahan wore
a clown mask and to get better into the music.
In February Steele left the band because of
religious beliefs.

10. Musicians uses music to express
their ideas and feelings. We should
not judge and hate the styles of other
musicians who has a unique way to
show their passion. Just like those
bands above who has a genre of
metal.

11. Music is really good when you have interest on
it. We have a unique taste of music but it is the
same because it's called music. We should
consider the wants and likes of others in terms
of music.
