Death metal
Death metal is a subgenre of heavy metal music characterized by aggressive, fast-paced riffs, complex song structures, and intense vocals often employing growls or guttural sounds. It emphasizes themes like mortality, violence, and philosophical introspection, often expressed through distorted guitars, double bass drumming, and technical precision. Originating in the mid-1980s, death metal is known for its dark, heavy sound that pushes musical boundaries while maintaining theatrical intensity. It appeals to fans who appreciate technical skill, raw emotion, and a powerful sonic experience.
