      Heavy metal genres

      Subtypes of heavy metal rock music

      A number of heavy metal genres have developed since the emergence of heavy metall (often shortened to metal) during the late 1960s and early 1970s.

In this instance, I’m referring to the far less fatalistic but probably more imminent finale to the Gregorian calendar year of two thousand and twenty four (NB. The Gregorian calendar was established as a reform of the Julian calendar in 1582 by Pope Gregory XIII). While ‘The End Is Nigh’ may also represent the rallying cry for the biblical apocalypse, that is not my intention or implication, just my peculiar sense of absurdity.

      “This is the way the world ends, not with a bang, but a whimper” – T.S. Eliot (1888‑1965)

      You are probably tired of all the usual end‑of‑year retrospectives. For those few who aren’t weary of looking back, I am using t
