Periodic table of metal bands


The folks over at Jacksonville.com have posted the periodic table of metal bands.

Heavy metal bands come in many varieties. Some are lightning fast, some are slow and plodding and, sure as iron is heavier than helium, some bands are heavier than others.

This is our best attempt at categorizing metal bands. By splitting them up, we hope to give some kind of order to the genre.

Each different color below represents a type of band, including Hair bands, Modern Metal Bands and the Founding Fathers of metal. Click the colored bars to learn more about the bands in that category. We've also got quizzes with each category to test your metal skills.
