 | | Goth Metal fuses the bleak, icy atmospherics of goth rock with the loud guitars and aggression of heavy metal, finding the middle ground between the two styles in a melodramatic sense of theater and lyrical obsessions with religion and horror. |
 | | Glam metal, frequently if derisively known as hair metal: Glam focused on stage craft and appearance (leather, spandex, long hair and makeup being very common), and generally uses a lot of "feel good" rhythms and catchy lyrics. |
 | | Stoner metal, with its heavy, sometimes slow and sludgily distorted riffs and the obvious influence of psychedelic music, creates a sound that is strongly reminiscent of the 1970s metal of Black Sabbath, Budgie, and similar bands. |
