A subset of HeavyMetal which combines the musical intricacies of ProgressiveRock with the heavy, guitar/drum-driven sound of metal. Progressive Metal may also include more overt flavorings of Classical music, such as operatic vocals or symphonic arrangements; bands with modern classical leanings usually skew more towards AvantGardeMetal. As with other forms of metal, the lyrical themes tend to be DarkerAndEdgier compared to traditional prog, with more sophistication than other forms of hard rock. A concrete definition of progressive metal is hard to pin down, so the status of many bands as progressive metal can be ambiguous. Its roots trace all the way back to hard rock and early heavy metal acts who dabbled in progressive rock (namely Music/LedZeppelin, Music/BlackSabbath, Music/DeepPurple, Music/{{Rainbow}}, and Music/{{Scorpions|Band}}[[note]]as well as Uli Jon Roth's post-Scorpions work with Electric Sun[[/note]]), as well as prog acts with heavier songs (particularly Music/KingCrimson, Music/{{Rush|Band}}, Music/{{Hawkwind}}, Music/RogerWaters-era Music/PinkFloyd), and [[Music/KingDiamond Mercyful Fate]] and Music/IronMaiden were among the first acts to play traditional heavy metal with overt prog elements. Progressive metal itself is generally agreed to have solidified with Music/{{Queensryche}}, Music/{{Watchtower}}, Music/CrimsonGlory, Fates Warning, and Music/{{Voivod}}, while Music/{{Savatage}}'s burgeoning RockOpera-centric SignatureStyle and heavily showtune-influenced compositions also helped build the genre, though it is debatable whether they were a full example by the time that the others were making their mark.
