Heavy Britain | 10 Tracks That Pioneered Metal in the Late 60s

Details

Description

In the late 1960s, a wave of underground UK bands was already cranking up the volume, distortion, and aggression — creating proto-metal anthems that blurred the lines between psychedelia, blues rock, and the heavy music that would soon define the genre.

This video dives into 10 crushing tracks from 1967–1969 that prove metal didn’t appear overnight — it evolved in the shadows. You’ll hear fuzz-drenched riffs, pounding rhythms, and wild performances from bands that deserve far more recognition in the history of heavy music.

🎸 Tracks featured:
• Raw, riff-driven proto-metal classics
• Psychedelic rock pushed to its heaviest limits
• Cult favorites from the British underground

If you love the roots of metal, proto-metal, or heavy psych, this is a trip back to when the fuse was lit.
