READ DESCRIPTION : This video is intended to be a guide to Metal, and include subgenres of Metal AND Metal-Adjacent genres. This is why there is classic Rock in the first section of the video, it serves as an introduction to the origins of Metal, and shows how early Rock evolved in more saturated subgenres which then allowed the emergence of Hard Rock and then Heavy Metal. This is also why there is an entire section of Punk subgenres. There's some that are scenes and not genres too, but who cares
So please don't bother me with comments like "Jethro Tull and Minor Threat aren't Metal wtf!!!!", I know that perfectly and that's the point.
Also, some of the these subgenres don't really exists, especially in the last section, but I included them for the fun, and to introduce people to weird and exotic bands they've never heard of.

"Oh so you are a metalhead? Name every genre of metal."
This person: No problem.
My favorite Metal genre - Blues rock
I actually did this with my friend one time. off the top of our heads we named about 120 of them and wrote them down
inventing some genre names on the way
He made up at least 50% of it 😆
@@flonkplonk1649 90% (if not all of these) are real genres just with alternate names. For example, atmosludge is really just called atmospheric sludge metal, and stoner doom is just stoner metal.
I doubted the seriousness of this, but when I saw Paleolithic metal I knew you were serious, man.
Peoples really took hours of their time to compose, record and mix an album of paleolithic metal. This thoughts makes me cry or izjdbks
Some of these blackmetal subgenres r sus as hell😂😂
Yeah, from Estonia none the least.
Damn, metal pretty much had a crossover with every other musical genre that exists
I’m confident that would apply to every genre
@@clandon9624absolutely
@@clandon9624 I have yet to find a genre as polarizing as metal. Most genres of music are genre-locked and barely deviate from the norm. Rock music has revolutionized music in how vast and far it branches out, with metal/core seemingly reaching the furthest with its indifference towards commercial success.
I mean there's enough musicians out there that you can think of any style and somebody out there has probably done it

I went from watching "every edm subgenre" as a kid to "every metal subgenre" as an adult. Never changed.
The edm to metal pipeline was the best thing for me
Maybe it's because I liked metal first, but about 80% of electronic music from the past ten or fifteen years annoys and enrages me. I literally considered buying tickets to a skrillex concert just to Dime Bag Darrell his ass about a decade ago, but decided it would only make him a legend for his inescapablly trendy torment upon people without pilled out ears.
@@LiterallyCensoredDaily why do you care?
@@LiterallyCensoredDailyget fucking help weirdo
@@LiterallyCensoredDaily please seek professional help
Video was still blocked in some countries lmao. I'm tired but I think it's finally good now
At this point, you can change one single note in a metal song and people will call it a new subgenre
yeah, it's that way for most music
Or change the bpm by 10 lol
So true.
@@alexanderbatrakov1257to be fair, changing bpm can add a slightly different sound which may completely change the vibe which may justify a new genre
@@JediSentinal No, it really isn't. New Wave fans don't do this, except the goth who like "dark wave."
No kidding, this is one of the most accurate and thorough explanations of metal subgenres i have ever seen. Good job!
I like how the A.I genre metal is literally just a meshuggah inspired song
This video reminded me that metal has the coolest aesthetics: the coolest album covers; the coolest band names; the coolest album/song titles. Some of this genres still feel dangerous or fordbidden.
Try listening to Total Fucking Destruction or Gangrene Discharge.
Ai generated Meshuggah is such a Meshuggah thing to do.
6:21 melodic deathk mental
The frontman of Diablo Swing Orchestra works at my local opera house, in the same city where both Meshuggah and Refused formed
24:43 Shoutout to all my diaper Tool fans out there
Jethro Tull is such a great Prog example! Beautiful picks for all these sub-genres!
I've always said Jethro Tull did for the flute what Dropkick Murphys did for the bagpipes.
They made it badass.
Coven too
I don't think I'll EVER find myself listening to noisecore (but I said the same with mathcore and now I'm obsessed)
Jerome’s dream seeing means more than safety is awesome and arguably both noisecore and mathcore
So metal is the rule 34 of music.
It's so wrong and right in the same time.
I like how increasingly censored the covers get around the death metal albums haha edit 24:43 OMFG HAHA
26:11 Glad my boy Buckethead getting some recognition!
The legend himself
Great work!, Some of the invented genres are damn hilarious but the real ones are great, you are indeed a man of culture 🤟🏻
atmospheric and dsbm are honestly some of the most beautiful genres of metal, coming from someone who listens to it frequently.
💀
Real
true
I knew there were a lot of metal subgenres, but not this many! Well made video and great examples.
Thanks for the vid! I’m kinda new to metal so this’ll definitely help with exploring what genres/subgenres I like :) 👍
Great, I'm learning about so many new music I didn't know! Thank you brother 🤘🏻
This is so cool (and quite helpful for me as a newbie trying to figure out what I like) thank you!!!
Respect for including Yakui The Maid. I would call his "Goodnight World" album "Trance Metal", it has a completely different vibe.
You have given me so many new bands and artists to check out! Thank you for this amazing video!
ikr, at several points i was like: wtf, this is actually fucking good 😲
3:28 most people would categorize Crimson Glory as progressive heavy similar to Queensryche though some songs do have a more notable gothic theme
3:49 I don't listen to Wintersun but from what it sounds like its easier to just label it melodic death rather than extreme power metal
4:01 Visual Kei is more the visual aesthetic (wacky hairstyles, androgynous fashion/makeup) than the music genre itself. Bands like X Japan and Versailles are both VK but X Japan is a heavy/speed metal band while Versailles is more symphonic/neoclassical power metal
4:11 Galneryus is very much a power metal band with neoclassical elements in it. imo "neoclassical metal" is a pretty loose term that gets thrown around often since "neoclassical" is just used to describe musical passages (usually the guitar :/) with classical influences. Its almost always attached to another subgenre, guitarists can just go *insert pedal point lick* and the song is instantly neoclassical. There's a difference between "neoclassical heavy/speed/power metal" with bands like aforementioned Galneryus/Jupiter/Iron Attack (neoclassical power), early Yngwie Malmsteen when he had a band and a singer/Racer X (neoclassical speed/heavy) and just simply "neoclassical metal" with works mostly from solo guitarists like Jason Becker, Uli Jon Roth, Yngwie songs like his Echo Etude, Joe Stump and even then a huge chunk is just instrumental speed metal songs with the guitarist wanking over le epic harmonic minor, spamming two string diminished arpeggios and pedal point licks everywhere.
39:00 Touhou metal absolutely fucks hard thanks for putting this in
Overall pretty awesome list, keep up the great work :)
I have a pretty unique take on extreme power metal, it's that there is "fake melodath" out there. Not saying it's bad or anything, just in my opinion bands like Children of Bodom, Amon Amarth and Wintersun are power metal with a death influence rather than the other way around
@@andreaseverin1346 yeah I see what you mean. Melodeath like At The Gates, Carcass definitely give different vibes compared to COB and Amon etc. The latter sounds more mainstream for a lack of a better description, they also tend to have more of a fantasy theme
Wintersun is power metal with harsh vocals and so is COB.
@@nebelnebel28 that's just fucking stupid. No one who actually listens to power metal can listen to Wintersun or CoB and say they sound anything like power metal. The closest thing there is to extreme power metal is Amaranthe, go listen to Amaranthe, then listen to CoB and tell me they are the same subgenre. I swear metalheads who don't listen to power will call anything with a keyboard and guitar solos power metal. "Oh I can actually hear a melody in this song, instead of random noises produced by someone smashing their guitar against a trash can. This must be power metal"
im so glad people are discovering touhou metal its so damn good
I don’t like probably 90% of this but stoked to see Sunami! I feel like you maybe missed metalcore between old and new school (Killswitch Engage, All That Remains, August Burns Red, As I Lay Dying) and scene/crabcore (Attack Attack!, The Devil Wears Prada), easycore (Chunk No Captain Chunk, Belmont, Four Year Strong) and more modern hardcore (Turnstile, Bane, Have Heart, Incendiary). Could even expand on punk with Skate Punk, Pop Punk, Ska Punk if you want. Great video anyway!
Edit: got carried and forgot this was a “metal” subgenres but yeah
TAD is one of the better choices for representing grunge, really embodies that collision of Seattle's Sludge Metal with the growing Alternative Rock mainstream.
TAD is like Helmet meets Melvins
2:45 ВНЕЗАПНО О_о
i like that as soon as the punk, core and grind section comes up, half the covers are censored
Thank you so much this video helped me find bands i really really love that i could never gind on my own. Especially the noisegrind and other noisy underground stuff.
amazing list! proud to say ive listened to most of these albums. amazing picks for the genres too
Damn Boy, Thats a Lot Of Things...
God I love metal
Hell yeah brother
15:47 Folkstone!! Didn't expect to see them on this list lol
Perhaps you skiped Punk Rock (The Misfits, Ramones, New York Dolls...), which is quite surprising since you listed Garage Rock (which is Proto Punk, basically) and Hardcore Punk (which is the next level of evolution of Punk).
There is also the subgenre of Shock Rock (Arthur Brown, Alice Cooper, Kiss...) which is probably more of a scene genre that precede the Hair Metal/Glam Metal subgenre
Among the Black metal subgenres (oh boy are there so many!) I also though about all the Greek BM Scene (Dead Congregation, Nightfall, Rotting Christ...) who has that particular signature.
But overall, you pretty much covered the entire spectrum.
Nice work.
so glad you put Lustre in there, love Lustre so damn much. Black metal for sleeping or studying
Some of these genre I have never come across before, thank you for enlightening me.
This works to a certain extent, but past a degree all the subgenres start to fuse together. Bands like Dissection are tagged with both Meloblack AND Melodeath, Disembowelment is tagged with both Death Doom and Funeral Doom, and then there are bands that basically defy existing genre watersheds like Ved Buens Ende or Imperial Triumphant, or even Liturgy, people just slap "Avant-Garde" onto those guys and call it a day, and then there are crossovers/hybrids, like Galneryus, Stratovarius and Rhapsody are bands who infuse a lot of neo-classical guitar works into their Power Metal/EUPM framework.
I'd argue that categorizing bands and music by "scene" works much better, even under the same genre/subgenre, bands from different scenes can still sound significantly different. For death metal along there's already the Florida Scene, the Gothenburg/Sweden scene and the Japanese scene (among many others).
Same with Carcass labeled as """""Death n' roll"""""
Florida scene here
好的杨细雨
@@battousai12That Carcass example was actually death n' roll, though. Their album Swansong is a prime example of it, and it's completely different to any of their melodeath and grindcore/goregrind stuff.
awesome work dude. thank you
Damn son, it's good, and I appreciate the work. I don't know a ton of these. Love the old fashion
I agree with 98% of the classification. Great list.
You forgot: Avant-garde Progressive Technical Blackened Grinding Slam-core
Uh oh, did you say core? NOT METAL!!
Epic work, thank you so much for this video!
I like how this shows how many metal band names are just a bunch of squiggly lines vaguely resembling letters
Anyone else heard a very similar line to a lastest Metallica's recordings at 14:15 on Brown Metal? I don't remember which song, I think from Hardwared or even from St. Anger. If anyone knows tell us
thank you for making this
15:18 Wow! I really wasn't expecting a hungarian song! 🇭🇺 Also, I can't even imagine how hard this was to make, thank you.
diiik egy magyar
Oh good, more artists to add to my playlists
Simply great video
It's about time I finally decided to educate myself about all of the rock and metal type genres and history, instead of just listening to the songs... because this shit in my blood now...
Awesome list! I would love to see a Zeuhl band like Ruins or a Rock in Opposition (RIO) band like Miriodor on the list. Zeuhl or RIO could be added in the roots or weird shit sections.
Очень приятно услышать арию тут…
Тоже очень удивился)
great video man thank you ive been a metal fan for a real long time and there was a few i didnt know either👍
bro, thanks for putting dance with the dead at 39:22, but i think sledge would've catch the essence of synthwave metal, more than the poison (reprise)
13:53 Fantastic.
clicked because i saw vektor in the thumbnail, stayed because this is a good ass video
great list! so happy you chose wasp to represent glam metal
This video is a Metalhead’s dream ❤️🔥🤘🏻❤️🔥🤘🏻❤️🔥🤘🏻
Man you have included Windir here! You are damn omniscent at this point!
Happy birthday Anthony!
Morta Skuld are great, quite dirty! Jice tiger splatter!!
Cardiac Arrest are killer too. I have that one and another in my collection.
I have that Incantation on lp from when it came out. Vicious, dark Death Metal supremacy.
I have the cd of the other one. Great gaul.
Damnnn holy fuck I remember you somewhere I've seen your pfp
Thall would be a nice addition in here! Also Christian Metal and its subgenres would be funny to have as well
Great way to introduce yourself to some new stuff! 🤟
taqbir n sunami!! hell yeah!! id love to see a vid thats just punk n hardcore from you cause it seems like u know ur shit (also if u do pls include egg punk n chain punk)
sounds interesting. Is Gee Tee considered Chain Punk ?
@@harmenxiv6439 no they would be more synth/garage punk, a good example of chain would be hoax or blazing eye
Some of these are odd choices. Onmyo-Za, who is representing Visual Kei isn't at all Visual Kei. Like, it isn't just a genre mistake. They aren't at all, in any way, Visual Kei. It should probably be represented by the pioneers of the term and the movement X Japan. Also, doesn't really represent solely a genre of music as Malice Mizer, Dir En Grey and Versailles are al Visual Kei bands, yet all are entirely different genres. I know you kinda mentioned "movement" in the description, it would kinda be ok if the band chosen was a good representation of the genre. In this case it wasn't. Also, after that you put Galneryus as Neoclassical. It is, but then right after you listed Evenoire as symphonic. Again, it is, but symphonic and power metal (which is a more specific description of Galneryus) are both neoclassical metal derivatives. You're not wrong, it's just odd when both bands are neoclassical. Honestly, with metal there are so many nuances that making a list is pretty hard. Still a very good job.
This goes real trve real soon, you mention Coven instead of Black Sabbath and Jehtro Tull instead of Pink Fkoyd, you're a man of culture I reckon! And that's just the roots!
I wasn't ready for Erkin Koray tbh good stuff.
my favorite kind of video
Ah yes My favourite subgenre: paleolithic 7:34
10:57 wow u mentioned Sadness!!!! I love them
Strawberry hospital and the angelic process, ncie
I saw that diaper tool meme, you ain't slick
:)))
ghallager as a blue srock example was well put!
Nice sample of finnish music. AM GOD from ...and Oceans is one of my all time favorites
I'd never imaging a Kancolle reference in such a video
23:00 Anneke's voice
It's such a good source for the bands
What was that meme (?) in alt metal at 24:46? I swear there was something there, im not insane
Re-upload? I'll watch it again anyway.
Exactly
this man even got Onmyo-Za, respect
The AI metal looks like it was built of Meshuggah's "Nothing" album
dude this is so cool
This is marvellous! Found a lot of great bands and interesting genres here, and I'd like to make a compilation like this, with some personal favorites. What software did you use to create the video?
Thanks!
I used Adobe Premiere 2022
Nice video
ARGENT METAL! ARGENT METAL! ARGENT METAL!
Mick Gordon God!!!

37:44 that actually sounds great. thanks for recommending :D
Unironically, I decided to check out some goregrind album covers because I wanted to see if I could hold back my puke.
Spoiler alert, I didn't do well. Moral of the story, don't search up goregrind album covers or any form of gore covers online.
thank you so much ❤
Dsbm, raw bm, black ambient, ambient bm, blackened noise, tanzelcore, kellersytnh, dungeonsytn, nsbm, lo fi bm, war metal, extra brutal death metal and power metal my favorite
I just became your 641th subscriber
This one is a great video, I can't argue against one single microgenre and the samples chosen are all excellent. I'll recommend this video to my friends and people who want to expand their knowledge of the genre.
i would have to disagree with the song choice for raw black metal at 10:14, he could've just used the next track off the same EP (ua-cam.com/video/AKlKL9UHfw0/v-deo.html) for a perfect example but church of the antichrist leans more heavily into early atmospheric black metal (ua-cam.com/video/jw6-LzuEvb4/v-deo.html)
edit: also half of these genres don't even exist. "ultra brutal death metal" is not a thing, it's still just brutal death metal. likewise, summoning is not "epic black metal" they're also symphonic black metal, bmss is not "lofi black psych" they're also just black n roll, turisas isn't "battle metal" it's still just folk metal, etc. etc.
Classing Equilibrium as "reggae metal" is laughable, when they're simply a folk metal band, whose primary influences on their folk style was Germanic folklore and song structures (with a fair bit of underlying black metal).
_Actual_ reggae metal would be someone like Skindred. Their entire sound revolves around the fusion of reggae and metal. Even the metalcore band Jinjer have a better reggae metal example than the Equilibrium song chosen, with their song Judgment (& Punishment).
I'd also like to address the regional stuff. I get it, but at the same time, some of them quite clearly belong to a specific, already established genre. For example, Kawir are just simply black metal. Obviously, their music draws a lot from Greek culture (all their lyrics are in Greek/Ancient Greek), but they're simply a black metal band.
So many reminders of good fucking songs in here, dope
A good part of the Metal subgenres shown here are invented XD
1:11 ALPHATAURUS SPOTTED!
quell'album è semi introvabile
Faltou o saravá metal ,da banda brasileira (gangrena gasosa)
É um uma mistura de ritmos africano , tirado da religião de feitiçaria( candoblé) e misturado com metal.
I got you there, people, I didn’t even know …and Oceans was a black metal band. By the way, what a neat video.
Very nice compilation my friend....the onlu thing is... how Bolt thrower instead CC, Deicide, Autopsy as Death Metal :c
