Groove metal is a subgenre of heavy metal.[2] It was often used to describe Pantera[3] and Exhorder.[4]
Characteristics and origins
Pantera's Cowboys from Hell album from 1990 was described as "groundbreaking" and "blueprint-defining" for the groove metal genre.[5] Tommy Victor of Prong claims that the attitude of groove metal came from Bad Brains.[6]
Other groove metal bands have incorporated thrash metal,[7] hardcore punk[8] and industrial music.[9] Ian Christe credits Sepultura's Chaos A.D. and Pantera for creating the death metal-derived music of groove metal and influencing later groups in the genre during the 1990s.[1]
Groups
The style has been associated with bands such as DevilDriver, Chimaira, Spiritual Beggars,[10] Soulfly,[11] Gojira,[12][13] Throwdown,[14] Fear Factory,[14] Lamb of God,[13] Machine Head[15] and Byzantine.[16]
