R/Metal Subgenre Essentials

The Introductory Album Project
"Goal: The point of this project was to come up with a generally agreed upon list which would act as an introduction to the sound and style of each of the subgenres. Each list was crafted as a fair presentation of the style and while it takes into count the mind of a newcomer it also tries to present the full scope of the genre. More challenging records are apart of this list if they are important cornerstones of the subgenre. The Main subgenre list (Heavy Metal -> Black) was processed through community until the least amount of objections was reached. The Fusion and Derivation list was less scrutinized and created by a few individual fans of of each style. While these lists are certainly not perfect it is our hope that they get a newcomer most if not halfway into the sound and theme of each subgenre."
NOTE: I did not compose the original list. Some albums omitted from this list, for full list please see Reddit link.
