I'll agree with that, it's some form of "Rock",....but it's not Rock & Roll!I consider metal to be within the broad range of genres that is rock and roll. But only because it isn't country, it isn't rap, it isn't jazz, it isn't classical, and it makes abundant use of distorted loud guitars, bass, drums, and a vocalist. My dad would hate it. So it's rock.
No one would confuse that with anything from, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Buddy Holly, Bill Haley,....or The Beatles, Stones, Hollies, Pink Floyd, Cream, etc., etc., etc.
