  • Good video but I can’t believe you didn’t mention the Hurrian Hymn which was discovered in the 1950s on a clay tablet inscribed with Cuneiform text and is the oldest surviving melody at over 3,400 years old. Without this there would be no metal. Unsubscribing

  • why was Pantera not mentioned once?? they gave us the birth of groove metal and probably was the most influential metal band in the 90´s... it's actually sad how underappreciated they are considering how important they were to the metal scene and metal history in general. they are the reason so many of us got into metal in the first place in the 90´s and 2000´s

    • They aren’t under appreciated, they’re one of the biggest names in metal and could be considered main stream at this point. Maybe a lot of people into metal don’t like Panteras style ( I listened to them when I was younger but don’t like these days) but anyway, once a band is big enough to have people who know the name without ever having listened to them, I don’t think you can be considered unappreciated at that point

    • Sry to brake it to you, but Pantera weren't the most influential metal band in the 90's. Probably they were for you, but in the whole metal scene??? Not even close. Here are some bands i could think of who released their debut albums in the 90's. Immortal, Marduk, Darkthrone, At the gates, Decide, Benediction, Dissection, Emperor and many many many more. If the 80's were the golden era of Thrash metal, then the 90's were the golden era of Black and Death metal.

This is wonderful. It is GLORIOUS. It's also... a great start. You could make a series of videos that focused on a specific era, you could make a series focusing on each genre of metal...

    • I'm actually surprised Pantera was not mentioned once in this video. They were pretty much the only big metal band in the early 1990s. I know the younger generation of metalheads are pretty much trying to erase Pantera out of existent but I mean when albums like Vulgar Display and Far Beyond came out, all the bands from the 80s were considered old news and bands like Korn were still just starting out and a whole generation of metalheads got into metal through Pantera. I also he felt he under estimated and basically ignored the influence of metalcore and left out important stuff from that scene that helped shaped metal today. Things like Mayhem Fest and Warped Tour and all that and also no mention of bands like HIM, Children of Bodom, Avenged Sevenfold or Bring Me The Horizon. Also no mention of Blue Cheer. Blasphemy right?

  • Leaving Blue Cheer’s first album, 67’s Vincebus Eruptum, out of the story I think leaves out the Bay Area’s early influence on heavy music. I would argue Possessed were ahead of the Florida bands by a few years as far as being a death metal band. I think one of their demos was called Death Metal. The song is on their first album, Seven Churches, released in 85. Death sounded very similar but their first album didn’t come out til 87 I think? I’ll have to look to make sure.

  • Appreciate the fact that you call out the fact that grunge didn't kill metal. Hair metal was never going to last, and was overexposed, meanwhile, Metallica still went strong, but alot of big bands dealt with inner turmoil...... that said as you also mentioned, the underground had some major bands forming, or about to blow up. Want to add, I wouldn't consider ghost a metal band. I'm not using that as an insult, but more mentioning their sound is more of a classic hard rock sound with some metal aspects popping up. Also shout out to 3teeth, keeping industrial metal great.

Starting with embarrassing my parents in 1968 as a toddler belting out Steppenwolf songs that got played on restaurant jukeboxes (accidentally knocking over a glass that ended up shattering on the floor once), learning how to play guitar in the '70s & '80s, jamming with garage bands, a Senior Skip Day '83 kegger, and more. Listened to everything from Led Zeppelin to local bands like Left End, Link, Lazarus, Zaza (NE Ohio) and Avatar (later called Savatage) and Crimson Glory (Central Florida), and all the other iconic bands of the 1960s to 2020s.

    • Correct me if I'm wrong, but before the influx of multiple labels of genres of metal, there were four genres i remember mentioned Thrash, Glam, one I can't remember, and Power metal. Bands like Maiden, Priest, Dio etc were considered Power Metal, being a heavier form of hard rock vs Metallica, Megadeth etc being thrash and on and on. This would have been around '84/'85. I was in my mid teens then and remember the early 80s when metal was still considered a little underground until Slippery When Wet came out in '85 or so.

  • I think this is pretty good crafted, probably the more accurate I've seen on YT. Let me do a couple of minor corrections that overall doesn't affect the accuracy of this: Faith No More is way older than nu metal bands by at least a decade, and was considered at the time "funk metal" and later, in the 2000's, was being called "alternative metal"; and folk metal started as such with English band Skyclad; while you can make the case for Sepultura, I think it's more accurate to put Skyclad at the beginning of the genre. Besides that, I think this is really good done.

  • 🤘🏼great video🤘🏼 The 90's were a defining period of Metal for me. I really became a metalhead here, discovering the history of Sepultura and Pantera, hearing Machine Head and FF for the 1st time, and discovering hardcore like Biohazard and Sick of It All. I also got to see Slayer and FF in a 900 person club and Judas Priest and Dream Theater (diff shows) in a 400 seat bar. The 90s were the best for me.

  • As an official 80s Poser, I would like to show up to your thrash metal concert and start a brawl over your brushing over the impact of the genre. While the glam has die out, the music styles and lyrics didn't. And if you're going to include KISS as one of the founders of shock rock and metal (they were hard rock, always were), then you can't just gloss over glam. Influences for bands like Guns N Roses and Motley Crue were some of the same influences other "harder metal" bands of the time were citing in personal and want ads.

  • The best video about music without a note of music in it. I get why he did it, so they can’t say you got what you got because of their music. I’m surprised you can even talk about 99% of these bands without a seize and desist letter saying you’re benefiting from their hard work. I think no one should steal or make money off the back of anyone else, but a few short clips of music in an educational video about the history of a genre, isn’t stealing in my eyes. Great video, and I hope you get 100% of whatever you can without sharing it with anyone but the people who helped you make it. Thank you 🙏🏼

  • Saying that Swedish melodic death metal was influenced by Carcass Heartwork is a bit of a stretch considering that Gothenburg had a scene going for years before that album came out, and Arch Enemy (which was formed only because Japan wanted Michael Amott to do more albums like Heartwork) didn't arrive until later. There were also other bands in Europe mixing Death Metal with melody like Amorphis, Sentenced, and arguably My Dying Bride although they are more Doom and gothic than death metal.

Metal in general tends to have a darker tone to the music influenced by horror movies, gothic fiction, harsh working class urban life, and as the video shows well metal also has a shock rock element from the likes of Kiss and Alice Cooper

As a metal head of the 80's we listened to all the metal we could get our hands on; the harder darker ones as well as the hair metal bands. I liked them all and banged my head to them. This was the hay day of heavy metal. You may think that metal of your era is better, but it wasn't bigger.
