>Russia only 22
there is no way the number is that low
>>61928935
Don't forget that Norway is the country that hasn't even earned it's own independence. I'd rather put Finland as most metal
>>61929083
America again
England pretty much invented metal so of course they are the most metal country I think Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Motorhead are more important than some literally who tier bands Finland spawned and half of them are industrial metal that sound like borderline aggrotech.
PORTUGAL

Romania has a lot of Metal bands but most of them are not used in the statistics, let's say that Romania and Italy should change their number to each other

Most metal is Finland
Best metal is France though
>>61936870
Finland produces quite a lot of fedora metal.
>>61936889
Yeah and a lot of good stuff. There's just generally a lot. I think France has the highest percentage of quality in their metal, tons of legendary bands and only a bit of crap
metal is just one of those genres in which 95% of it is utter trash but some of it is literally elite
I don't know what it's like in Europe but here in America our grindcore, doom, sludge, hardcore scene is fucking massive.

Blackened crust is best crust so yeah do that
>>61929979
babby's first metal band
I don't mean to be biased but it has to be the U.S.
Finland and Scandinavia might have more per capita but most of the "great" bands out right now are from the states. Full of Hell, The Body, Deafheaven, NAILS, Sunn O))), and not to mention all the classics like Electric Wizard, Eyehategod, Tragedy, His Hero is Gone, Converge.

Leprous? Deathspell? Gorguts? Enslaved? Mgla? Ne Obliviscaris? Gris? Cult of Luna?
>>61937229
Yeah I realized that after I clicked submit
>>61937240
Not really, they set the basics for the genre but they're not that great. I will admit that DMDS is a great album though.
>>61937298
Actual prog is good, especially when mixed with black/death. The shit prog is the power/symphonic crap, plus DT clones. Leprous are elite and objectively the best current metal band.
>>61937305
I'm mostly talking about grindcore, sludge, doom. American black metal isn't very good but we're the best at grind/crust etc
If it werent for Rotting Christ i'd be crying in a corner.
South Europe is the least metal
Norway and Sweden for quality.
>>61937220
>power metal, slam not in total shit
>thrash and death total shit
>>61937337
"no"
>>61937337
Take your sub-plebeian taste back to /mu/, helot.
>>61937346
Grind and crust is almost more punk than it is metal though
>>61937379
desu all three of the bottom sections are total shit there are just subcategories of shitness
>>61937347
yeah south Europe is quite dodgy, imo there is nothing cringier in the entire metal genre than Italian power metal.
Rotting Christ is really good though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Qf8JgSm6pE
>>61937410
Yeah, fuck off, faggot.
Go jerk off to Symphony X.
>>61928057
Metal is shit
>>61937452
Only europeans can appreciate it right
>>61937410
Yeah, but a lot of bands here blend genres really well. Also we have mathcore stuff like The Locust and Daughters that you can't really find anywhere else. Whether you like them or not you have to admit they're incredibly talented
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro5FDDr9WXU
Europe is better at metal and America is better at punk.
Sweden has more prominent bands than Finland. just my opinion.
>>61928057
wat time do u paint
>>61937595
Sweden has Dark Tranquility and Finland has Insomnium. I can't choose between them. Both countries make top tier metal.
>>61937603
from 10:30-4am
i paint up and stand in my window while blasting mayhem
>>61937679
>still no reflection
>>61937651
I like Insomnium better but they have a bad habit of making the same album every time
Also I don't consider melodeath to be a good barometer of a country's metal prowess 2bh
>>61931913
i usually like the atmosphere that black metal puts out. But not really fond of the vocals.
Wiededood sounds pretty good though.

>>61939847

>>61939719
Yeah, I really liked it too. I'll be honest, I dropped prog metal because it all sounded repetitive but Leprous is great. Enslaved is another band that drives me crazy but I doubt I'll ever see them live.
>>61928057
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jV9QFS_0eOg
>>61939926
Honestly man I love prog metal but maybe it's just because I've sat through more of it and know where the good shit is. If you haven't heard the latest two Blindead albums you're missing out big time, I'd put them up with Leprous as being the best metal bands of the current decade. I love Enslaved too but they're getting a little bit dry, repeating themselves a bit much. I think the best current bands are Leprous, Blindead, Chaos Divine, Kontinuum, Rendezvous Point (other band of Leprous drummer) and Ghost Brigade. And, depending if you can handle a bit of cheese, Haken and Circus Maximus, who I personally think are better than the bands they're ripping of (being DT and the like)

I'll check out material by those bands then. I used to love prog but I became bitter with it because any djent band or DT clone was labelled as such.

>>61941146
Yeah same, I actually got banned from /r/progmetal a few years ago because I used to ruthlessly destroy any and all djentkids. I like a couple of DT clones that have sick hooks (Haken, CM etc) but they're really just DT with better composition. I hate the soloing and wank parts of both bands.
>>61941568
I used to go there but it's full of djentshit. r/metal is surprisingly good but I don't see lots of prog there, it's mainly black and death.
>>61941822
I basically just decided to stop using the internet to discuss music a few years ago, stopped going on both reddit and /mu/, I think they're both as bad as each other. I have tons of music friends and I run a blog so get sent all the fucking music in the world for reviewing so I generally don't even need to go finding it, which is convenient. I never really used /r/metal much, though I did like the fact that they would ban people for posting basic shit
>>61942626
/mu/ is just terrible. I checked a metal general they had there and they uironically rated slam and deathcore. It was disgusting.
r/metal has days exclusively dedicated to underground which is nice to find new music.
