It was only a tough choice if I thought about it too much I guess. But over these last few years I've really become genuinely proud of the Australian metal "scene" or whatever.

Some of my favourites, besides all the obvious stuff like Hobbs' Angel of Death, Armoured Angel, D666, Mournful Congregation, Sadistik Exekution, Vomitor and Bestial Warlust etc, are:

Mortification (Hammer Of God album mostly), Würm, The Wizar'd (and all associated bands), Fortress (debut), Pegazus, Outcast, Teuton, Grenade, Denouncement Pyre, Sacriphyx, Innsmouth, Ignivomous, Coffin Lust, Johnny Touch, Road Warrior, Angus McDeth, Ironhawk, Kulturkampf, Trench Hell, Rubbish Mob, Mongrel's Cross.

For me, the three most important Australian bands right now are StarGazer, Convent Guilt and Hellbringer.

I've got the Convent Guilt album. It's good.

I know the seeding is based on votes but USA vs Mexico seems unfair in a first round. I'd choose Mexico over a number of other countries there. France vs Greece is a tight race also

France vs Greece was the closest and I kind of wanted to vote for Greece but Mütiilation and the rest if LLN makes France the winner.

Also wanted to vote for Poland but Finland has so much good stuff in so man different genres.

I'd take Mexico over quite a few of these. Shame it came up against the USA so early.
