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.

3 Doors Down - Smack
(Lyrics by Arnold)
(Music by Roberts, Arnold & Harrell

Rubber headed motor junky, run me down
And try to stomp me
Throw my life away, and I'll be worthless
Just like you
Somewhere now a baby's crying, down the
Road his mother's dying
Shot a line and blew her mind and now
She's turning blue
Don't you throw your life away, just wait
Until another day
Don't you throw your life away, cause
Baby I can feel it
Don't you ever compromise it, don't you
Even realize it
Don't throw your life away, cause baby I can feel it, now
Trip and fall,
I'm sure you all can tell me
What is on the wall
Behind the liquor store where you get
Smacked up all the time
Perfect little life you wasted, overdosed
And that death you tasted
Scared you back into yourself, and now
You walk the line
Don't you throw your life away, just wait
Until another day
Don't you throw your life away, cause
Baby I can feel it
Don't you ever compromise it, don't you
Even realize it
Don't throw your life away, cause baby I can feel it, now
Life away
Life away
