Metal Tico is a heavy metal music genre that originated in Costa Rica in the late 1980s. It is characterized by its aggressive sound, fast tempos, and distorted guitars. The lyrics often focus on themes of violence, death, and social issues. The genre has been influenced by thrash metal, death metal, and black metal, as well as traditional Costa Rican folk music. Metal Tico bands often incorporate traditional instruments such as marimbas and drums into their sound. The genre has become increasingly popular in recent years, with bands such as Sepulcro, Sarcófago, and Desalmado gaining international recognition.
