hardnheavyMany people mistakenly believe that the origins of heavy metal are tied to the rise of punk rock in the late 1970s.

In fact, heavy metal emerged from the ashes of the blues and rock 'n' roll of the 1950s and '60s, which emerged after World War II. The two genres are related in many ways, including the sounds and themes of African-American music. The heavy metal sound is characterized by distorted guitar riffs and loud vocals. These loud and aggressive styles of music were first popularized in the 1960s by bands like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and The Who. The Beatles, in particular, helped create heavy metal. Their 1968 song "Helter Skelter" features distorted guitar riffs and powerful drums that became the foundation of heavy metal.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, many bands began writing music that would later become known as heavy metal. The pioneer of heavy metal was the British band Black Sabbath, who formed in the late 1960s. Combining elements of blues and psychedelic rock and roll, Black Sabbath created music that has since been described as "dark, sinister, and morbid." This answers the question of many music lovers - what is heavy blues rock?

In 1977, the British band Judas Priest released the album "Stained Class", which many critics consider the moment when heavy metal truly became its own genre. "Stained Class" was one of the first albums that was widely identified as "heavy metal". The early 1980s saw the emergence of a new wave of British heavy metal bands, including Iron Maiden, Saxon, Def Leppard and Motörhead. Iron Maiden's 1981 album Killers is widely credited with helping heavy metal gain the attention of a wider audience.

And now for the big reveal. Hard 'n' Heavy is the debut studio album by Canadian heavy metal band Anvil, released in 1981. It was originally released independently under the name Lips. Their playing style was noticeably different from hard rock and heavy metal bands. Without thinking twice, critics took the name of their album to personify (capture) the new heavy style - hard'n'heavy.

In 2023, 50 Shades of Blues Rock launched a series of reviews of new hard'n'heavy releases. The topic caught on and the review series is still present on the Heavy Blues Rock channel. This time we are posting 40 new hard’n’heavy hits of 2025.
