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.

Old 97's - Salome
Salome, uncross your heart
I know what goes on inside it's over before it starts
Well I'll stay all night, I'll wait right here
Full moon might work magic, girl but I won't disappear.

And I'm tired of makin' friends.
And I'm tired of makin' time.
And I'm sick to death of love.
And I'm sick to death of tryin'.
And it's easier for you
Yeah it's easier for you.

And it's easier for you
Yeah it's easier for you.

Salome, untie my hands
Well I'll find another lady
And you'll wreck another man.
It's over now, and so are we
My blood's turned to dirt girl
You broke every part of me

And I'm tired of makin' friends.
And I'm tired of makin' time.
And I'm sick to death of love.
And I'm sick to death of tryin'.

And it's easier for you.
Yeah it's easier for you.

And it's easier for you.
Yeah it's easier for you.

(guitar solo)

And I'm tired of makin' friends.
And I'm tired of makin' time.
And I'm sick to death of love
And I'm sick to death of tryin'.

And it's easier for you.
Yeah it's easier for you.

And it's easier for you.
Yeah it's easier for you.

And it's easier for you.
Yeah it's easier for you. Stres british airways apteka palarnia kawy półki
