Ditto, bud. I'm all about good ol' Sweden, Norway, and since I'm a naive and arrogant american, I dunno if Finland and Switzerland are Scandanavian. But if they are, oh boy is my opinion cast in stone forever.

 

[genocide roach]

finland is, switzerland is not. they are next to germany.

Sweden, Norway, Denmark & Finland are all Scandinavian countries... I voted for them, as they simply has the best bands around...

All over the world. Most of the recent trends have started from Scandinavia though.

Scandinavia seems to have it.

I voted Other tho. My favorite bands seem to come from Canada and US.

Scandinavia. Austria is close behind with some great bands.

 

[JayKeeley]

Does the question relate to today's music only?

If not, then Great Britain has to take the crown surely.

@Ormir- good call on Austria.

I voted for Western Europe because a lot of my fave bands are from Ireland

 

[parimal2k29]

Germany! Legends like Gamma Ray, Helloween etc.

 

[FailingAcension]

Scandinaiva.......so many great bands....... Next would be the rest of Europe..... then the U.S. even though some of my fav. DM bands are from the U.S.
