SAMAEL and HELLHAMMER may have been the most influential and innovative bands from Switzerland, but surely not the most typical ones (that's probably also the reason they were so successful overseas).
MESSIAH had names like "Tschösi" or "Brögi", insider references like "We Hate To Be In The Army Now" plus an extreme Swiss accent ----> no competition. |

Fuck yeah!!! we are awesome!!! Rush are perfect for Ontario (good hard rockin' tunes for the CFL lads, arty prog for the downtown 7/4 time hipsters like myself), Voivod/Gorguts define QC to a tee.... West Coast? Who knows? I've never been....
I think for metal, nothing is more representative of the USA than Metallica.
Italy: maybe Raw Power? I'd like to say Mortuary Drape with all the eerie buildings and shit, but to me Raw Power seem totally perfect. Who knows.... _________________ http://www.last.fm/user/ngadke |

In a way I can see why late Samael would embody that typically Swiss sense of strictness and accuracy, Hellhammer though sounds nothing like that.
GBK for the US is completely out of place, Pantera is a much more fitting call. Despite being a native Brit, Ozzy's personality and late releases are 101% a product of American degeneracy. _________________ Thread derailed

Dear Americans,
Transylvania is not a country, it's a Romanian region, made popular by an Irish novelist at the end of the 19th century. Is the Apple maps app THAT bad?  _________________

As much as I like Spite Extreme Wing, they do not really embody anything peculiarly Italian.
Weird stuff fits us best for sure, the fact that it is mostly horror-themed is merely coincidental in my opinion. Our way to go is dark and solemn, like Death SS, The Black, Black Hole, Paul Chain's Violet Theatre, some Mortuary Drape, Abysmal Grief, and an awful LOT of obscure progressive hard rock from the late '70ies.
And then there's Monumentum.
They are so eclectic yet so good that they deserve to be in a league of their own, they're probably the continuators of our prog tradition and just as close to the genius of Celtic Frost (conceptually speaking of course) as one can be without sounding like a copycat. _________________ Into the Menstrual Night We Go-o, Hey-Ho, Hey-Ho...

it's hard to imagine GBK coming from anywhere else.
Brazil: Sepultura, up to and including Beneath the Remains |
