Music from your country!

[dragonslayer32]

Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Sex Pistols, Dire Straits (and if we are talking about the UK in general here) AC/DC (that's right, the majority of the band are from the UK)

[Wintermoot]

its either shitty-preachy rap or shitty MIDI music with guys singing cheese lyrics over it in other words garbage but atleast we arent responsible for the Jonas Sisters or Bieber

 

[Vhite]

Only local band that I love. Yeah its Guns N' Roses video but it really fits to the music.
If you dont like it wait until 2:05, thats when really awesome part begins.

 

[Amphoteric]

Hey guys, I was wondering, if you could post some music from your country!

I'll start!

Now try to guess on what language the band is singing on.

NO CHEATING!

I'm guessing Icelandic because of the the word "Reykjavíkur", it looks like Reykjavik which is a city in Iceland.

 

[Zorg Machine]

I was planning on showing of good swedish music but since others have beaten me to it...here you go.

 

[TheHecatomb]

Oh man there's such a diverse amount of amazing music from the Netherlands. We totally own most subgenres of electronic dance music worldwide, underground hip-hop is blossoming, metal's doing pretty well internationally, too. Just a small grip;

Spoiler: Spoilered to save your bandwith

And just because it's horrible in an awesome way:

 

[Icarion (aka Stockholm)]

Guess I'll add something in swedish..

Translation: "Hello.. This is a bird. Come take a look. This is a bird.. bird, bird, bird ,bird, bird, bird, bird, bird.. Bird, you have a bird here, it's dangerous!"

Welcome to the Escapist!
OT:Hmmmm....

Spoiler: Good ol' American thrashy metal: (Also my avatar)

Spoiler: Some nice American Genre-defyingness

Spoiler: American Prog/alt Metal from the Midwest

(ok weird video I know but the music is great)

Spoiler: And of course some good ol' American punk

That's who I listen to in those genres, or the best examples thereof.

 

[DaJoW]

Yet another Swede.

And a slightly more classical song:

 

[Athol]

Oh Canada!

 

[Chaosweaver]

Alchemist - from the album Austral Alien (guess what country they're from

 

[Icarion (aka Stockholm)]

Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Sex Pistols, Dire Straits (and if we are talking about the UK in general here) AC/DC (that's right, the majority of the band are from the UK)

Spoiler

Aren't AC/DC from Australia?

That's my source, what's yours?

 

[Knusper]

Iron Maiden!

I don't think it's hard to guess which language they speak, but...

Spoiler: Wasted Years

Oh, and also a load of other great bands, but it seems like other people have done them all (Rolling Stones, Queen, Pink Floyd...)

 

[DarkenedWolfEye]

Three Days Grace. The most awesome thing in the world.

I'm in the UK so I guess my favourite metalcore band would count!

BFMV are classed as metalcore?! Hmm I guess their newer stuff has more of a hardcore edge to it but I wouldn't class them as metalcore personally. Ah well, whatever, not important really

OT: I'm from the UK as well and the best thing to come out of the UK, in my opinion, is The Clash

And here's my favourite British Metalcore band: Architects

 

[David_G]

I'm from Macedonia, and there are surprisingly lots of Punk bands here, so I'll post some of them.

Read the individual band members' pages. Angus and Malcolm were born in Scotland (as was Bon) Brian was born in England and so was Cliff. Origionally, all members apart from Angus and Malcolm were from Australia, but now, it has become a predominantly British band with only one member (Phil) that is Australian.

 

[BlastedTheWorm]

I love my country.

 

[Peperonici]

My friend, you just won this thread, well done!

Yeah, that's unfair also want to have such an awesome band like muse in my country

Anyway music from Austria

 

[Woodsey]

Just to counter all of the inevitable rock and metal (although I do really like this song, and I know it'll annoy plenty of you):

 

[Nouw]

Fantastic song from a genre I'm not that too keen on.

A pop song which is really popular in my country and maybe others. I love it!

A calm and relaxing song I found out thanks to my parents.

Cookie for the person who knows which country I live in.

I don't like K-Pop that much but it's in my blood to at least enjoy some...
