SWEDEN

 

[Slayed Necros]

I have 12 five star albums for both Sweden and USA on RYM. Tough choice.

Clearly Sweden wins, having a significantly higher "five star album per capita" value.

 

[Elric of Melniboné]

US

For me, there's no contest between these two.

Clearly Sweden wins, having a significantly higher "five star album per capita" value.

Technically this is correct; Sweden has Epicus Doomicus Metallicus, the USA doesn't have 30 5-star albums.

U S A

[Slayed Necros]

I'm going with SWEDEN.

 

[Vilden]

I vote for Sweden, half is of national pride but also because we have the best bands.

Because foe me while the US have lots and lots of great bands (more than any country I presume) from Queensryche to Nocturnus to Saint Vitus etc. Of my absolut favorites only Fates Warning are from the states while Sweden got Bathory, Candlemass, Dismember and Katatonia.

We all knew USA was going to win this, but second place for Sweden is a nice surprise.

USA wins comfortably for me. if i was gonna make, say, a top 25 from the two countries i could see as many as 21 being american. they'd definitely have a big majority.

USA

Any other choice is fucking retarded. Let me know when Sweden produces an Autopsy, a Saint Vitus or a Slayer.
