The US heavy metal sound has big hooks, melodic choruses, and monster ballads with nearly every song featuring one guitar solo. Vocals are melodic, and high-pitched. They also include extensive use of harmonies, particularly in the ballads – slow, emotional songs that gradually build to a strong finale. Lyrics tended to deal with love and lust.
