Spanish Metal is a subgenre of heavy metal music that originated in Spain in the late 1980s. It is characterized by a mix of traditional heavy metal and traditional Spanish music, such as flamenco and folk. It often features Spanish lyrics and instrumentation, such as acoustic guitars, castanets, and flamenco-style handclaps. It is often associated with the thrash metal and power metal genres, and is often seen as a bridge between the two. Popular Spanish Metal bands include Avalanch, Saratoga, and Tierra Santa.
