the metal genre has very well performed music, and has more meaningful lyrics than pop because the majority of the time the artists themselves have wrote their own music.
the reason for choosing this genre is because metal, and rock are so influential towards other genres and so have an impact, this means that no matter what genre is covered there will always be metal and rock influences in it, this means that by covering these genres I can get to where the source of the influence comes from, rock and Screamo.
the screamo genre
Screamo is a sub genre of hardcore punk that predominantly evolved from emo, among other genres, in the early 1990s. This initially involved a more aggressive offshoot of emo music that developed in San Diego in 1991. Screamo essentially describes a particularly dissonant style of emo influenced by hardcore punk.
Screamo uses typical rock instrumentation, but is notable for its brief compositions, chaotic execution, and screaming vocals.
(Screaming is a vocal technique that is most popular in sub genres of heavy metal, and is also used in some genres of punk and industrial. While intensity, pitch, and characteristics vary from vocalist to vocalist, screamed vocals generally accompany heavy music, and are associated with more aggressive musical themes or styles.) While occasional screaming has been used for effect in heavy metal since the genre's dawn in the late 1960s (with singers such as Robert Plant, Ian Gillan and Rob Halford employing the technique frequently), screaming as a normal method of lyrical delivery first came to prominence in heavy metal as part of the thrash metal explosion of the 1980s.Thrash metal was influenced both by heavy metal and by hardcore punk, the latter of which often incorporated shouted or screamed vocals. The first instance of screaming used as a constant delivery of lyrics was Chuck Schuldiner of the band Death.
