Funk Metal

Funk metal (sometimes typeset differently such as funk-metal) is a fusion genre of music which emerged in the 1980s.[2] It typically incorporates elements of funk and heavy metal. It features hard-driving heavy metal guitar riffs, the pounding bass rhythms characteristic of funk, and sometimes hip hop-style rhymes into an alternative rock approach to songwriting.

@Tonyflow666:ehh I wouldn't call metal a sub genre of rock even though it came from it. Just like I wouldn't call rock a sub genre of blues.

listen to Infectious Grooves noobs. and try too convince me that thats not Funk Metal xD you are seriously a fool if you belive that there are some fusion genres that cant be made. metal is a sub genre of rock.. and Funk-Metal is a sub genre of Funk-Rock.. just as much as Funk is a sub genre of Soul..

Funk Metal definitely exists. Also, RHCP's early material is generally considered funk metal.
