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.

2Pac Featuring Makaveli - White Man's World
What do you mean when you say
We've changed our ways?
Say we're just too political,
Or we don't have much to say.
The ones who criticize our reasons,
Always seem to disagree.
No matter what we do,
It's them we just can't seem to please.
(Chorus)
Forgot the things we've said,
We're only clones.
Not cool enough to make it on our own.
Judged by the elitist chosen few.
Their labels aren't for me,
Are they for you?
You say some years ago our songs were fine.
And our debut EP was just divine,
But now a shadow haunts us through and through
And songs we wrote before you never knew
