drone metal

Last updated:

Description

Drone metal is an extreme subgenre that emphasizes sustained, heavily distorted guitar tones and minimal rhythmic progression, creating immersive walls of sound. Emerging from doom metal and experimental music scenes in the 1990s, it strips away traditional song structures in favor of lengthy, meditative compositions that explore texture and atmosphere. The genre cultivates an intense, almost ritualistic listening experience through sheer volume and sonic density.
