Welsh Metal is a subgenre of heavy metal music that originated in Wales in the late 1980s. It is characterized by its aggressive sound, often featuring distorted guitars, fast tempos, and harsh vocals. The genre is heavily influenced by traditional Welsh folk music, and often incorporates elements of Celtic music, such as bagpipes and fiddles. Welsh Metal bands often sing in both English and Welsh, and often draw lyrical inspiration from Welsh mythology and history. Notable Welsh Metal bands include Bullet for My Valentine, Lostprophets, and Funeral for a Friend.
