It typically features African rhythms, melodies, and instruments, as well as distorted guitars, double bass drums, and growling vocals. African Metal bands often draw inspiration from traditional African music, as well as from other genres such as thrash metal, death metal, and progressive metal. African Metal bands are often characterized by their use of traditional African instruments, such as the djembe, balafon, and kora, as well as their incorporation of African rhythms and melodies into their music. African Metal bands have been gaining popularity in recent years, with bands such as South African group Black Hand, Nigerian group Witchrist, and Ghanaian group Dark Suburb leading the way.
