That's not the point. I didn't bother examining the state of the nation's mainstream, because in many cases that's not going to focus on any of the music anyone here likes.
My point stands, the most "metal nation" will always Britain. From the very birth of metal to the fine tuning of pure METAL, as well as influence, no other country comes close.

Dark Tranquillity are verse-chorus for the most part. Not classically structured.
Britain doesn't come close to being the best in terms of a high quantity of exceptional bands. The influence of a select few can't be overstated, however.

with all this bashing? I only said it once, hehe. Morbid Angel, in my opinion, is just a really boring band. Ive heard the majority of their stuff, and Ive seen them live 3 or 4 times. Everything sounds the same, nothing interesting. But thats just my opinion, if you like them, more power to ya.

Norway easily:
1349
Burzum
Darkthrone
Emperor
Mayhem
Satyricon
Thorns
Ulver
Zyklon
Arcturus
Tristania
Borknagar
In the Woods
Green Carnation
Dimmu Borgir
Old Man's Child
Einherjer
Enslaved
Windir
USA would probably come in second, mostly thanks to the West Coast...

I see what you're saying, but I don't think the pure number of good bands is a fair judge. Take a comparison between the UK and USA, I would imagine that population wise we have just as many decent bands, just that there are simply more due to the US being a larger place.

Fair enough. I'd agree that the good-to-shit band ratio is surely greater here in Britain than in the States.
V.V.V.V.V.
Houses Ov Mercury
France has the best BM scene in the world currently.
You forgot Eikenskaden though.
Other awesome French bands:
Loudblast
Gurkkhas
Kronos
Fairyland (name sucks, music does not)
Agressor
Children of Maani (whom you actually recommended me)
Kabbal
etc.
Caelum Adustum
Call me Ishmael
VEHEMENCE
Helping The World To See
Slayed Necros
Void
Children of Maani completely slipped my mind. Very decent band, much like Blut Aus Nord.Worm-Infested Intestinal Tract said:

.. but for bands like Destruction, Sodom, Accuser, Headhunter, Kreator, Exhumer, Assassin and Vendetta, I choose Germany to be metal nation #1, closely followed by the USA..
