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.

Hanoi Rocks - First Timer
Please operator, please operator, This is the first time I'm with a woman
Well years can change, And we become much older
Oh but we don't always realize, And it becomes harder and harder
Soon I'll be too old to be a debutante, I'm hangin' up my telephone
How come you don't ever come, How come you don't ever come
I'm hangin' up my telephone, How come you don't ever come
Tonight will be the first time ever, That I'll fall in love with the things we can do
Tonight will be the first time ever, That I'll get to know the things we can do
We'll take a break, our line's engaged, No one can stop me now
Well comin' in, it thrills me so, Never ever let me go, never let me go
Go go go, Year can change and we get older and older
Soon I'll be too old to be a debutante, And it becomes harder and harder
Don't leave me hangin' on the telephone, Please don't leave me hangin' on my telephone
How come you don't ever come, How come you don't ever come
Oh yeah, Please operator, please operator, Look out Teksty piosenek in the sense, mbhosting Teksty piosenek Teksty piosenek kopenhaga
