Bulgarian Metal is a subgenre of heavy metal music that originated in Bulgaria in the late 1980s. It is characterized by its aggressive sound, often featuring distorted guitars, fast tempos, and harsh vocals. The lyrics often focus on themes of national pride, mythology, and history. The genre has been influenced by a variety of other metal genres, including thrash metal, death metal, and black metal. It has also been influenced by traditional Bulgarian folk music, which can be heard in the use of traditional instruments such as the gaida (bagpipe) and the tambura (lute). Bulgarian Metal bands have gained international recognition, with some of the most popular bands being Epizod, Grai, and Stoyan Velichkov.
