What's typical for Heavy Metal

Heavy Metal is the heavier list: metalcore, death metal, power metal and progressive metal, with Sabaton, Metallica, In Flames, Ghost, Amon Amarth and Arch Enemy at the top. The pool is heaviest in the 2000s, when the Swedish scene was at its biggest internationally, and almost one in three songs is Swedish.

The level is Medium, but it feels harder to anyone who doesn't listen to the genre – growls and blast beats give fewer clues than a chorus does. For the metalhead it's the opposite: the subgenres are easy to tell apart, leaving just the band name to work out.

Good for anyone who finds Metal Saturday too tame. Don't spring it on a mixed group without warning – and feel free to play it loud.
