The new wave of speed metal is a 2010s revivalist movement that resurrects the breakneck tempos, razor‑edged riffing, and high‑energy songwriting of classic 1980s speed metal. It favors twin‑guitar harmonies, athletic rhythm sections, and soaring, clean vocals that deliver anthemic hooks. Unlike the harsher edge of thrash, this wave leans into melodicism and precision: galloping rhythms, tightly palm‑muted alternate‑picked riffs, and flamboyant guitar solos. Production tends to be crisp but analog‑minded, evoking vintage warmth while meeting modern loudness and clarity.

Nitzhonot is a fast, highly melodic branch of Israeli Goa/psytrance whose name comes from the Hebrew word for “victories.” It emphasizes triumphant, euphoric synth leads, dramatic key changes, and bright, anthem‑like hooks over a pounding 4/4 kick and a driving, rolling bassline. Typically clocking in around 145–155 BPM, the style blends classic Goa trance arpeggios with more overtly uplifting, hands‑in‑the‑air trance gestures. Middle‑Eastern modes and ornamental pitch bends are common, giving its melodies a distinctive, celebratory color that set it apart from darker or more minimal strands of psytrance.
