Top Ten Songs that are Usually Placed in the Wrong Music Genre
@Rambles because it's not metal. Do you think later metal bands was inspired by songs like this? I don't think... it's even closer to punk than metal... if you want to listen metal BS song, try the Children of the Grave. It's metal, Paranoid so far not!
Yes - musically, Paranoid is a children song with a guitar riff. Metal is more than that.
Considered as Heavy Metal, but actually Hard Rock
Yes, speed metal muscians say it's a proto-speed metal song and I agree with that.
Considered as Hard Rock, but actually Heavy Metal
Its obviously a garage rock but as for the riffs,it invented hard core or hard rock music,so I don't think calling it hard rock would be wrong,cause every first genre isn't always pure.for example deep purple didn't turn to heavy metal directly,they used to play progressive and psychedelic rock and then they went heavier and invented metal
Considered as Hard Rock, but actually Garage Rock
This is a great hard rock song. Even if it's called glam metal, it's again hard rock because glam metal isn't really metal. The term "glam metal" is a terrible misconception. All metal musicians hated glam metal - namely because it's not metal and only gives metal a bad name. Glam metal is the glam version of hard rock, or the MTV version of hard rock, or the pop version of hard rock. Glam metal is a poser metal subgenre - "glam" and "metal" are actually opposites.
I don't know whats the difference between glam metal and heavy metal,a musician with 20 inches long hair and too much make up and with leather vest and pants really could change the music?
Considered as Hard Rock, but actually Glam Metal
Considered as Rock and Roll, but actually Blues
This song is both hard rock and progressive rock. But unlike Rambles said, this song isn't prog metal. Prog metal is actually a faster and heavier version of prog rock. this song is softer and slower than average prog metal songs.
Considered as Heavy Metal, but actually Progressive Rock
But I saw this on Wikipedia its considered as Rhythm and Blues. Not jazz really. They change a lot
Considered as Jazz, but actually Rhythm and Blues
It really cringes me that people consider it as Viking Metal, and it isn't even a Metal song.
Considered as Viking Metal, but actually Hard Rock
Its also considered as a hard rock
Not sure about power pop,but its more of a psychedelic rock song,and the reason it called as a hard rock song because the solo starts very hardly,which could be considered as hard rock,so only for the solo part I think this song can be called as a hard rock.
Considered as Hard Rock, but actually Power Pop
