dude there is more to european metal than hammerfall and blind gaurdian i can fucking assure you. you were describing cheesy powermetal in your other post. that is a very small portion of the metal coming out of europe. ever heard of in flames? at the gates? children of bodom? arch enemy? or tons of other bands that are completely the opposite of what you described? european metal KILLS american metal as a general rule (imo of course). there are a few american bands that i really love though. nevermore, death, etc. but most of my favorites are from sweeden and finland.Originally posted by JAH
Are you sure?
No. When I meant Europe. I didn't mean a country . I meant the whole fricken thing. That's why I put it there. I think American metal is better musically. My opinion . Just sounds more realistic to me and I can relate to it cause thats where I'm from. As for Dream Theater VS Meshugah. Doesn't really matter that much to me cause the bands aren't that amazing to debate over. There are some bands that I do like over there. (NP) :}

i wasnt trying to put american metal down at all when i said that. i was just trying to point out that not all eurpoean metal is cheesy bullshit about castles and faries and stuff. AND there's just as many american bands that play that style anyway. he was bagging on europe as a whole, and thats just bullshit.Originally posted by xenophobe
Geez... My daddy will beat up your daddy...
Lots of cool music everywhere to argue who has better music than whom....
Personally, I like lots of stuff from Europe AND America.
