Is Sister Ray the first Heavy Metal song?
Or at least, Porto-Metal.

Jonathan Morgan

Lucas Nguyen
Wow never heard of this ! Thanks OP ! Very obscure ! :)
Ayden Stewart
It's a me, Mario!
Eli Morales
I don't know if it's Porto metal but at the very least it was extremely influential on post outhouse
John Collins
>noise=metal
Owen Foster
Excuse me what are you trying to prove
Benjamin Clark
obviously Porto-Metal
Sebastian Cook
Once again the Velvet Underground were beaten by the Beatles, who introduced the deliberate use of feedback to rock music in 1964
Jaxson Edwards
obviously Porto-Metal
Jack Jones
>this
Dylan James
But not Heavy Metal.
Julian Morgan
Liam Fisher
It was porto metal
Owen Nelson
Metal songs had already been made by then, sorry m8...The Velvets were anything but metal anyway, that's noise rock...metal is one of the very few genres of music they had little influence on (mainly because it was a garbage subgenre for a very long time until the late 80's when death/doom/sludge and the like took off which are more in like with the Velvets)
Jaxson Rodriguez
Samuel Adams
Any good metal bands from Portugal?
Robert Barnes
no, syster ray actually sounds good.
if it sounded atrocious, then yes.
Joseph Stewart
>Helter Skelter what's that?
Brayden Butler
beatles fanboys are so insecure
this seems accurate
Josiah Thompson
At least we are musically intelligent
Adrian Morris
>Yfw Sister Ray came out before Helter Skelter.
Landon Myers
Easton Morgan
>yfw Helter Skelter sounds like proto-metal but Sister ray doesn't
Mason Martin
That's not rock music, it's surf
Jace Watson
>This came out 14 days before White Light/White Heat
Works for me
Dylan Smith
neither of them sound like "proto metal"
The obvious predecessors to metal are bands like Led Zeppelin, Blue Cheer, Deep Purple, and The Who, not The Beatles or TVU.
Anthony Miller
looool
Nathan Bailey
Incorrect.
The established musical parameters of the genre are all present in Helter Skleter
Evan Wright
Just being realistic. It's a lot more likely that the early metal bands got their inspiration from various "hard rock" or heavier versions of psychedelic rock than from a single Beatles song (which I still don't believe sounds like a "proto-metal" song, but whatever). There are certainly genres that you can give credit to the Beatles for influencing but I don't think there's a great case to be made for their impact on metal.
Jordan Morgan
Except Ozzy Osborn was a Beatles obsessive
Nathan Cruz
surf is a subgenre of rock
its fair to differentiate it from the blues/R&B-based rock that was popular at the time but it's absolutely still rock
Landon Stewart
...
Jack Evans
You zealot Beatles fans are retarded. Link Wray and other rock artists were using feedback before The Beatles.
This is the stupidest thing I've read on here all day. It's called surf ROCK.
Angel Jackson
surf =/= rock
Try again.
Jacob Howard
It's called surf ROCK. It's a rock n roll subgenre. Stop posting.
John Johnson
Nolan Green
>It's called surf ROCK
No, we are discussing surf, not surf rock.
Try again.
Jaxson Taylor
Helter Skelter
Nathan Barnes
Surf music is a subgenre of rock music associated with surf culture, particularly as found in Southern California. It was especially popular from 1962 to 1964 in two major forms.[11]
Daniel Myers
its proto punk
Caleb Parker
this is like saying that psychedelic rock isn't rock, it's psychedelia. makes no sense
Jeremiah Bell
>surf culture, particularly as found in Southern California
Not what we are discussing, is it? The Beatles were not a Surf band
psychedelic rock =/= psychedelia so you are not making much sense
Dylan Edwards
>psychedelic rock =/= psychedelia
Okay let me clarify
psychedelic rock is part of a larger culture called "psychedelia"
surf rock is part of a larger culture called "surf culture"
both are still subgenres of rock music, the fact that they are influenced by other subcultures does not exclude them from the rock n roll genre
i mean most critics that I know of would classify Link Wray and Dick Dale as rock music so this isn't some controversial point I'm arguing.
Blake Collins
OK I admit I am pretending to be retarded
Tyler Evans
fair enough
Hunter Rodriguez
Obviously Porto-Metal, a lot of the soloing uses a very Portuguese scale.
Aiden Howard
Just wondering if I could successfully defend the feedback thing. I can't but I do stand by Helter Skelter as proto-metal
David Wood
little walter was the first artist to use feedback
