amberleaf Posted June 30, 2005 Reading a recent post made me think about the subject of which countries have a good musical history.

British -Led Zepellin -Black sabbath -The Beatles -The Rollin Stones -Queen -Iron Maiden -The Clash -David Bowie -The kinks -The Who these arent my favorite but i'd consider them the biggest/most talented. 0 Share this post Link to post

pilottobombadier Posted July 2, 2005 Canada: Voivod Annihilator Rush Big Sugar Anvil The Tragically Hip That's about all I like from my own country. Most of what I listen to is American prog-metal and European (mainly British and German) power and thrash metal. Although, from the UK, the bands/Musicians I respect the most are: Judas Priest Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler Bruce Dickinson Eric Clapton Jeff Beck Elton John before his wrist went limp From the US: Testament Overkill Steve Vai Joe Satriani Dream Theater Alice Cooper From Germany: Rammstein Kreator Nevermore (i'm pretty sure htey were German...) Primal Fear From Scandinavia: Stratovarius 0 Share this post Link to post
