Being opposed to Christianity means being opposed to all of its magical, mythical, bs, which would mean the Devil also. Only Christians believe in and or worship "the Devil" because nobody else believes in the Devil. Great music video; thanks for posting! Peace & love!
You jump right in to BS. You forget Arthur Brown, he did serious stuff in late 60's.
hey, what do u use for programming drums?? cheers :D
Bro, how are you not going to give Motorhead their due? Lemmy is the godfather of Metal. Starting in 1975, Motorhead was the band that meshed the Hard Rock sound of Sabbath with the speed and grittiness of punk. They literally invented Metal as a genre as a whole...
hahaha punk rock looks like the song fuwa fuwa houkago tea time
The most important thing I learned from this video: I am a slow reader.
Right, but a couple of times I was like c'mon, that popped up to quickly lol
You and me both. The video was excellent though.

I can read 240 words per minute in English (more in my mother tongue obviously) and that was sometimes impossible to read it all in time.
Can we all appreciate how he composed original music exemplary of the style he's demonstrating?
I was really impressed how well he captured the essence of the genres, the thrash metal one is literally a slayer song from another dimension

I’m over 65 y.o. and, just recently became a metalhead! I even won the black Metallica cd on a radio contest this past August! One is never too old to learn to like something new!!!! 💿
I'm mostly just surprised there was a radio contest where they actually rewarded prizes.
@@Selrisitai Hi Sel! Last week on a different radio station I won a 2 tickets to a Foo Fighters concert....I gave them to a relative! Please have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 🎄🌳🎄 ☃️ 🏡🏘🏡 🎄🌳🎄. 😎. Stay safe out there!
Back in the 90s, when we had an actual Heavy Metal club in town (I miss you, Mad Max, with your ramshackle interior comprimising of old subway trains and even a helicopter weck) the DJ played the Ofra Haza version of Sisters of Mercy's Temple of Love and the DJ was giving away a bottle of champagene if somebody could name him the year. After some tiome I just stepped up to him, while kids yelled years at him, he looked at me and I was: "92, du'h" and he handed me the bottle.
Few people are so open minded, so good for you, and welcome to the community! \m/

There are a few notable omissions but I really can’t get mad, or even annoyed because this dude covered 19 genres, if I counted right, and accurately portrayed all of them. Fucking Bravo
Definitely, the history was accurate and the explanation of the genres seems easy to understand to novices/non musicians. Stoner/doom/sludge 's absence definitely hurt tho lol
I felt that Iron Maiden and Van Halen not being present was a bit odd. Perhaps Iron Maiden wasn't as formative as I thought, but Van Halen definitely definitely ushered in a new era of guitar solos.
@@tlkuvic Maiden was there
yeah, deep purple -.-
@@tlkuvic Iron Maiden, Van Halen, and no Rush which defined the "power metal" category 10 years before the dating in this vid. Van Halen also was 10 years before and defined the sound of Hair Metal. And dude, I'm not really a metal guy, just been around a while.
1:15 that sounds like "Black Sabbath" mixed with "ritual zombie". Sounds great.

That was unbearable. Most of the video was good. I had to mute that trash.
It was pretty fkin sick
JB use to say we cant beat the devil because he was immortal, but this guy plays lead, second, and drum by himselves

Yes and the only thing which was missed is the corpspaint 🙂
Groove metal began in '86 with Exhorder, Phil from Pantera was not only a fan of them, but also a member of the band for about 4 hours in '87, pantera were doing power metal at the time, but Phil managed to get the rest of Pantera listening to them and they changed their style.
It would be cool to mention the sepultura groove metal phase too with Chaos Ad and Roots in the 90s
@@herickhammerMeshuggah also had a groove phase, from the None EP to the Chaosphere album. Destroy, Erase, Improve in particular is a progressive groove metal gem.

And he deserves all the credit aswell.

This is like taking a walk through a botanical garden of Metal. Look at you all growing together, cross breeding and evolving. It’s glorious
Exactly! But then there's elitists that would make the garden a lot less pretty.
Actually the two bands credited for the advent of Djent in mainstream music are Meshuggah and Sikth. Dunno why everyone forgets Sikth; they’re criminally underrated and under appreciated.
Those last three chugs at the end of progressive metal was critical. Random, unexpected time change for seemingly no reason at all. Love it

Metal is such an amazing genre of music. No matter what the subject matter is of the song it’s always conveyed and portrayed perfectly due to metals inherent nature of raw emotion.
This is the best breakdown (no pun intended) of some of these overlapping and often extremely contested subgenres. Thank you for all the time and effort you surely put into this to educate us!
Wow dude, not only did you nail the genre’s descriptions, you nailed the music! You’re a great musician! Nice video.

I was surprised to read at the end that you composed music of each style yourself. That's pretty near, most would cover a sample from an important album but you took it a step further and I love that
This is absolutely awesome. One small nitpick could be that the text was flying by too fast so I was pausing a lot just to be able to read everything, and that broke the flow of the music. Other than that, this is great. I have a mapofmetal poster, i am obsessed with history of metal and music in general
It's metal. You gotta keep up! 😄
I kept pausing the vid to read the text too Dev.
@@andyappleton3353 So did I
Another small nitpick was that the text was there at all. I can't stand videos where all the information is in text. You don't need a video for that. Speak FFS.
@Simon Harris I see where you’re coming from, but this video is focused on hearing the subtle differences between metal genres, and spoken word would probably disrupt the musical “flow” that this video has.
4:10 every now and then I come back to listen to this badass riff! It has all the Thrash goodness, super tight playing and amazing tone!
Definitely heavily inspired by Metallica's 'Battery'. Even the solo begins the same way haha. It is a great riff regardless.

This was neat. I'm an old man metalhead and could never keep all of the sub-genres straight. The constant arguing about it always kept me from wanting to try. You explained it so this old man could understand :)
It's just like any other genre, people will always argue and come up with genre's the bands themselves don't agree with. All it really is good for is trying to find bands with similar sounds.

Hi. I’m a younger guitarist and I also have had the same frustration about picking a genre to learn.
@@dumpstercat2229 just play what you like man. Who cares if anyone else likes it? Music is free expression. Express yourself.
There once was a great band called Moray Eel. Can`t define genre at all.
Managed to talk about the history of metal in a practical way, as there are many ramifications, congratulations! An addendum, if you research the band Sarcófago/Sepultura you will see that they are also at the beginning of Death Metal, not to mention the influence that Sepultura had on Nu-Metal bands, it is a lot. A big hug!
hi-five man, let's give the favourite Sepultura some love, their early works were definitely death metal, but since Beneath the Remains, the music eventually turned to more Thrashy, Groovy. I believe later on, Roots played a huge role on influencing modern Nu-metal bands.
Let’s not forget Sepultura’s earliest material was heavily Slayer inspired. Slayer isn’t my favorite metal band by any stretch, but there is no denying their massive influence on many bands as well. Venom is also heavily underrated and practically spawned the Black Metal subgenre. I’m surprised the album “Black Metal” itself wasn’t listed as the most important to sparking the movement.
@@Goofballhero Slayer? Nah, Sepultura was super different than Slayer back in the day, Sepultura was more proto death metal and Slayer NWOBHM oriented
@@SamuelSouza-di6nq ... You’re joking, right? Listen to Sepultura’s Morbid Visions, their first record. The Cavalera brothers and Andreas Kisser himself even stated Slayer and Venom as their two primary influences in their sound, and it shows on their first record. Also Slayer was definitely not NWOBHM oriented lmao.
@@Goofballhero Morbid visions? Haha, no my friend, Sepultura started with Bestial Devastation, compare that shit with Show no mercy and you will see the difference. And Both Iggor e Max (Andreas isn't an original member, it was Jairo Guedz) said their inspirations was Venom ofc, but way more extreme, based in other national bands like Dorsal Atlântica and Sagrado Inferno. And yes, Slayer in the beginning was totally influenced by NWOBHM, they get their contract with Brian Slagel to Metal Blade Records after he see they playing Phantom of Opera of Iron Maiden for example, this is crystal clear. To resume: Sepultura is way more extreme than Slayer since the begining.
I NEED a full version of the Norwegian black metal part!
I think it's so cool that you can hear this evolution properly. You can see how all this has developed further and further. I love music!

4:35 damn that was sick
This is one of the most honest and fair evolutions of metal I've ever seen. It's non biased, and gives honest kudos when needed. Awesome job, wicked playing!
Could have done with funk metal - Chillis, Extreme, Faith No More, but thst's about my only criticism.
@@thursoberwick1948 I agree , But Chili's don't fit there. You want to talk Funk Metal then Infectious Grooves & Fishbone have to be up front.
@@sgildea4215 Fishbone are okay... I think the Chillis can verge into metal. The first four or five albums anyway.
Funk metal was one of those offshoots he mentioned at the end like symphonic. Personally my biggest critic is that there should have been a rock and hard rock segment instead of mixing them together. There are harder Beetles and Who songs sure, but Deep Purple and later acts like say AC/DC and Queen sound entirely different. I'd call Zep, Purple and Sabbath the diverging point between metal and rock, though I agree with the sentiment that Sabbath falls on the metal side and Zep and Purple on the rock side. Even after they become distinct genres there is a lot of cross play between metal and hard rock that can make them hard to distinguish. There is a reason Hair Metal and Glam Rock are treated as synonyms and that whole argument over Alt. Metal.
@@deplorabledegenerate2630 Deep Purple and Ped o Zep were considered metal at the time. In fact in the late eighties, some groups like Bon Jovi and Def Leppard were even considered metal.

Some awesome playing, but two glaring omissions, Motörhead and Van Halen.

Overall a great video and undeniably fantastic playing.

@@Rise65487 van halen technically wasn't metal by any means. Motorhead did bridge the gap but thrash metal quickly replaced speed metal as a term and scene almost insantly.

My one and only gripe with this video is the lack of mention of Motörhead. I feel as if leaving them out is a major link between the punk to thrash metal pipeline. But other than that this was such a great video and really did detail in an extensive way the timeline and progression of metal music as a whole.
yo this fucking guy didn't mention Motorhead? What the fuck? Lmao
True dat
1979 to 1982 that "speed metal"/proto- thrash sound was they key element that made the deal for the thrash scene to flourish. Also, it was important to differentiate the American/bay area thrash scene from the Germanic one
@@andresarguelles6507 not mentioning at least Kreator.
The trouble with Motorhead is that they never considered themselves a metal band, they always considered themselves hard rock/rock and roll band and did not want credit for anything to do with metal.
Even the tones and mixes sound authentic to their time period. very impressive
Versatility is amazing… thanks for these videos 🤘

you are awesome man, this video should be considered as a documentary i would suggest. i am a slayer fan(id prefer any slayer album instead of metallica), but i may have missed the part `tool` takes place which made me this video watch twice. anyway, good work man.
Thanks. Fascinating how you portray those styles. Some of your riffs I want to learn now. A fine history lesson. Best wishes. 😊
You have hit the centre of all those genres. I'm a metal fan for 20 years now and this video is accurate, informative and fun.
Man... combining Djent technical insanity with 80s hair metal songwriting sensibilities may create the most beast and awesome genre not yet seen.
"technical insanity" and "songwriting sensibilities" will be at odds. I find it best to use technique to show off the written music, rather than writing music to show off the technique.
It’s not *quite* what you’re talking about, but a good (imho, purists will disagree) band that combines elements of prog with accessible songwriting is Evergrey.

Apologies for finding this most impressive video only now, especially when being a metalhead since I discovered "Killers" in 1981 and found this to be my new way into music.

Yeah i cant read so fastly and needed to pause ...
i saw overlap. and djent. i'm sorry, it sounds like ai computer generated sludge. meshugah is not djent. their best song "bleed" is not that in the least. they play with time tablature. they do not shriek for no reason.
@@tonyb7615 Are you really convinced Rational Gaze by Meshuggah is not djent? I'd say they spawned the genre without knowing just like Black Sabbath and Heavy Metal.
Didn’t realize I liked metal more than I thought, unless it was just the way you played. We’ll never know until you put out an album💯
I tend to like metal more when there aren't vocals. Maybe that's why I was able to watch this whole thing without a break ;)
Great video! I would just include Sepultura and Sarcofago as precursors of so many metal genres such as: Death Metal, 2nd wave of black metal and even groove metal. Great video!
No groove at all, but I like how he laid out progression of style instead of following the timeline. Because if he did, then we won't have either punk or hardcore and jump from doom directly to grindcore. However, proto-metal and a few important subgenres were missed completely... e.g. Rammstein etc. are actually post-industrial, as Die Krupps rendition of One (by metallica and all the way to Fear Factory was all about metallizing it with Thrash, but Godflesh (1988 release where Justin Broadrick had recently parted ways with Napalm Death) sounds like initial Industrial.
Very well put together.
I love how that Hair Metal point specifically mentions Motley Crue, Poison, Twisted Sister, and Quiet Riot, yet the whole section sounds very much like Dokken
Probably because Dokken is the best glam metal band out there. Lizzy Borden and WASP also come close too.
imo, Bon Jovi is the best hair metal band.
@@Kruegernator123RATT, KIX and Great White too
An interesting note is my dad who was a "head", he said that's what they used to call people back then "heads", never really listened to the 70s punk. Neither did anyone he knew. Maybe it was a city thing. He started with sabbath and then they'd go to maiden and priest concerts, UFO, Rush.
True with my dad as well, he loves rock music from the early 60's -70's stuff to some of the more recent bands (rhcp, muse, korn) and he's never showed any sort of interest in punk, like 0 interest, doesn't know any of the band's.
Yes, we didn't look at the punk stuff until a few years after it was a thing. It didn't suit a lot of us. It was amateurish noise that didn't have much content. It was all will. Still doesn't appeal to me. I want to hear the music in the grind, and words with some meaning. One of the newer bunch that got it right imo is Alice in Chains. I also really like Lamb of God and Bullet for my Valentine. I haven't dug into more recent stuff yet. Any suggestions?
No hate, but, in the 70s, head was short for pothead. Head shops were small record stores that sold black light posters, rolling papers, amyl nitrate, and bongs. And they reeked of patchouli, but they sold all the music Kmart and other big chain stores wouldn't touch. I don't know your dad, tho, so I can't say one way or another who he was or is, just my two cents. And, again, there was a LOT of amazing music you could only find in a head shop. Edit - the bands you mentioned were just a few of those "shunned" bands
Punk is relevant as an influence when io consider hardcore punk. Yes, most metalheads hated punk (and rightly so) especially in England. But thrash, death and black metal owe the east-coast punk scene quite a lot. The punks just had to figure out how to get that metronome flying...
I hate punk but thrash, my favourite genre, owes a lot to it.
There is a real effort in this job, it's great that you play your own solo dude🤘🏻🤟🏻
Thank ou so much for making this comprehensive video!
We should be grateful that we managed to see and hear the work of an extremely talented, versatile and creative man - Andrea Boma Boccarusso.
That was absolutely awesome! But I have two little remarks of things I was missing: 1. Grunge as a whole genre. 2. Rammstein and NIN as representatives of Industrial Metal.
Also Glam metal and band Kiss
Rammstein is there though (10.21) 🙂. But yes, NIN also seminal for Industrial.
Also Stoner and Doom Metal
Yip grunge being the biggest musical phenomenon to hit the mainstream in the early 90s...which spawned stoner rock etc...and yes industrial rock deserves a mention
Brutal Deathmetal and Grindcore...
Thank you man of the metal, I learned so much
Thanks for a great lesson 💪 I've been a metalhead for some 32 years now, but it's never too late to upgrade your knowledge 😁
