Brazilian Heavy Metal is a subgenre of heavy metal music that originated in Brazil in the late 1970s. It is characterized by its aggressive sound, fast tempos, and distorted guitars. It is heavily influenced by traditional heavy metal bands such as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and Black Sabbath, as well as thrash metal bands like Metallica and Slayer. Brazilian Heavy Metal bands often incorporate elements of traditional Brazilian music, such as samba and bossa nova, into their sound. The genre has become increasingly popular in recent years, with bands such as Sepultura, Angra, and Krisiun gaining international recognition.
