A genre of music classified by their bands giving concerts at parking lots, of strip malls or supermarkets. They usually set up their instruments right on the handicapped space. That causes problems.
Mastodon, Idiots on Guitar, Warren Trenchcoat, and Swayzak 1 TOM Robot 0 are examples of parking lot metal bands.

Get the metalmug. Metal that actually has an explosive snare drum and makes more use of the toms to create a more climactic and cinematic metal experience. It generally wouldn't drop below C standard tuning and would make great use of the voice to be dynamic and add vocal expression that enhances, mimics, and complements the guitar work.
