The tactile elements and the higher fidelity audio make the music listening experience second to none.

What is Metal Music?

Metal music is a genre of rock music that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s, pioneered by world renowned bands like Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath. Characteristics of metal include guitars as the focal instrument, highly amplified distortion, loudness, and a general tone of aggression. Many songs feature extended guitar solos, harsh vocals, and lyrics that focus on dark subject matters.

Metal music has spawned a number of sub-genres, including progressive metal, symphonic metal, thrash metal and death metal. These have sparked the formation of popular groups such as Metallica, Megadeth, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, as well as other bands that are influenced by the brute force and anti-authoritarian nature of metal.
