Top 10 Most Underrated Metal Sub Genres

The Top Ten
1 Neo-Classical Metal Neoclassical metal is a subgenre of heavy metal that is heavily influenced by classical music and usually features very technical playing, consisting of elements borrowed from both classical and speed metal music.
2 Symphonic Metal
3 Power Metal

I only really like old school power metal (like Iced Earth and Armored Saint) the rest of it is a mixed bag.

4 Technical Thrash Metal

As the title suggests, it's more technical and sophisticated than the ordinary thrash. Especially guitar work - riffs and solos are awesome. I am a thrasher and this version of thrash gives me something different. My favorite bands are Annihilator and Coroner, both underrated.

5 Technical Death Metal
6 Industrial Metal
7 Grove Metal
8 Funk Metal
9 Avant-Garde Metal

It's like an experimental metal.

10 Folk Metal
The Contenders
11 Math Metal
12 Ice Metal
13 New Wave
14 Nu Metal
15 Deathcore
16 Alternative Metal Alternative metal is a music genre that infuses heavy metal with influences from alternative rock and other genres normally associated with metal.
17 Death-Doom
18 Grindcore
