Początkowy, lecz już wyraźnie ukształtowany heavy metal, można zaobserwować w muzyce grup Led Zeppelin i Black Sabbath. Jeśli chodzi o korzenie, to jedni upatrują prototypu utworu heavymetalowego w piosence The Beatles "Helter-Skelter" (z Białego Albumu) lub The Kinks "You Really Got Me", inni zaś za pierwsze utwory protoheavymetalowe uznają przeboje grupy The Dave Clark Five, szczególnie "Any Way You Want It" i "Glad All Over" z 1964 roku. Zresztą nurt zapoczątkowany przez The Dave Clark Five nazywa się heavy drum albo heavy bass, od ciężkiego, hałaśliwego i agresywnego brzmienia.

Zevon Warren - Backs Turned Looking Down the Path
(Warren Zevon/Waddy Wachtel/Julia Mueller)
Sitting on the sofa
Suckin' on a bowl of crack
Thinkin' to myself about my
Angel dressed in black
I know she went out hours ago
I hope she's coming back
So I wait here patiently for my
Angel dressed in black
CHORUS
I don't want to go out in the rain
I don't want to go out in the rain
I don't want to go out in the rain
I wish she'd come home right now
So we could interact
I've got a big surprise for her
My angel dressed in black
My little angel
She's the Queen of Downtown
She gets around town
My angel dressed in black
I'm getting kind of paranoid
I'm going off the track
I'm starting to hallucinate my
Angel dressed in black
She might have been arrested
She might have been attacked
She might be lying dead somewhere
My angel dressed in black
CHORUS
Sitting on the sofa
Suckin' a bowl of crack
Thinkin' to myself about my
Angel dressed in black
My little angel
She's the Queen of Downtown
She gets around town
My angel dressed in black
