Heavy metal starter pack?

Question

Here are some songs I’ve picked to maybe potentially ease some of you into heavy metal. No brutal death metal vocals I promise! 😂 Just straight shredding 🤘 Hope you find something you like!

This is a good ground work to build upon. A bit of speed , trash, and good old school metal. Also a lot of german bands. Accident or just your choice? Everyone has their own Favorit style. I would add: Not promising no growling but a bit of a different style.

surprised you put so much thrash and power metal in this starterpack. i was expecting some later 90's metal like slipknot, korn, and rammstein. interesting list, but i think it might be too much for someone who is new lol

i feel like most newcomers are either coming from alternative rock, classic rock, or both. nu metal would be for the alternative rock listeners and thrash would be for the classic rock peeps

Good idea. Now once I think about which politician to make part 4 poem about, I will make the background ACDC melody in the form of heavy metal,

The third part plays over 5 different instruments throughout.

I wouldn't recommend that as a starter pack. I personally think you went too heavy on thrash. And how can you start Heavy Metal without Black Sabbath?

Old school metal is pretty cool, you'd probably like Powertrip too.

Of course, once you get into bands like Silent Planet, ERRA and Volumes, it's hard to go back to the older stuff. It's just metal on a whole different level

I'd start off with easy stuff, like Krokus and Iron Maiden. Then it goes further up, with early thrash Metallica, bump up to Nuclear Assault, Municipal Waste, Toxic Holocaust, then to Deathcrush-era Mayhem lol

Heavy Metal Sucks! All I think about when I hear that is those lame Kiss clowns who bedded 1,000 groupies. Now that is something to admire -NOT!
