Post-metal is a genre of heavy metal music that combines elements of post-rock, progressive metal, and sludge metal. It is characterized by its slow, heavy riffs, complex song structures, and often lengthy songs. Post-metal often features long instrumental passages, often with a focus on atmosphere and texture rather than traditional song structure. It is often characterized by its use of dissonance, repetition, and a wide range of dynamics. Post-metal bands often draw influence from a variety of genres, including ambient, drone, and noise music.
