One Of The Most Important And Innovative Concepts Of Traditional Heavy Metal Was The Use Of The Double Lead Guitar Pioneered By Bands Like Scorpions And Judas Priest.

Another Musical Concept That Was Developed Was Galloping Rhythmic Patterns Which Were Extensively Used In Iron Maiden Songs But Also In Certain Accept's Songs "Restless And Wild" "Metal Heart" As Well As Judas Priest "Diamonds And Rust" Dio "Holy Diver" Or Trust "Varsovie/Uptown Martyrs" .
