Best band from the USA?

[Rude Boy Stig]

Mastodon or Isis, imo.

 

[The Don]

Y'aAAAARRRSSSIIIISSSSS

Arsis, Nevermore, Symphony X all get my vote

 

[Koi]

i would say "the dear hunter", a young band from boston with alot of talent. http://www.myspace.com/thedearhunter

 

[sleepwalker08]

Hard to say really. Everyone's named them all. Slayer, Testament, Nevermore all fucking kill.

 

[griev0r]

Novembers Doom, Death, Daylight Dies for me.

 

[angelofdeath9308]

Agalloch, Tool, Metallica, Megadeth, Testament, Does The Mars Volta count? Rage Against the Machine, and Shadows Fall are a personal favorite too

 

[beast from the east]

Agalloch, Nevermore, Novembers Doom

 

[Pethical]

wittr

 

[in_my_time_of_disease]

^beat me to it, in terms of metal, I'm with wittr as well. Isis, neurosis and agalloch would be runners up imo.

 

[NicholasDWolfwood]

WITTR or Neurosis, by far. At least in the metal realm.

 

[all_sins_undone]

you all fail

 

[opeth_353]

Pretty much just reiterating bands already mentioned.

Neurosis, Weakling, Isis, WIITR, Tool..

Agalloch, Sculptured and Sleepytime Gorilla Museum too.

 

[Stimuli]

Is this only for metal?

If its metal I would say Mastodon...

if not then Gov't Mule...

 

[affinityband]

people that say that there isnt any good metal in the US are complete knob ends.

 

[opeth8]

Marilyn Manson or GWAR ???

[EkstatikParataxis]

Death .

 

[affinityband]

Marilyn Manson or GWAR ???

opeth or fall out boy

 

[Walls1441]

Mastodon, Death or NoFX for me.

 

[all_sins_undone]

[Demonite]

Black Label Society, Kamelot(even though the vocalist is Norwegian), Cannibal Corpse?
