Well, here is some special for /metal/ I don't like Black Metal, which is why I'm going to share some treasures from my vault.
In this thread, I will post some obscure DM classics from obscure countries. No USA, UK, Canada, Poland, Sweden, Finland, but instead, Bulgaria, Israel, Argentina, Denmark, etc.
with links
It will take some time between my posts. You better keep bumping, if you don't want to lose some important info

They were well known for some reason, albiet this is probably the worst produced album ever

ok, name me ten important Death Metal bands from Denmark. For comparison, I can name 60 important Death Metal bands from Spain in the 90s, while only 28 from Denmark

From Nepal, Ugra Karmayoutube.com /watch?v=TpHRWAIoraU&list=PLiJEa5PQfcwxM5kJqvQ_VUyWGYGqDRn8i
and Arachnidyoutube.com /watch?v=5AJOdSIlSRo
I first started getting into Nepali scene, after Vader had a gig there. Apparently they really had something going on for some time.
They still have a long way to go, but they are doing good, despite the conditions

India
it's baffling that this country for such a long time was absent from metal world
Dying Embrace is a no-braineryoutube.com /watch?v=6ABGZ0HGe74
To be honest, I don't really know what I can recommend from India without feeling like an idiot

Iceland I feel like a cheater, because Sororicide is pretty well knownyoutube.com /watch?v=kPTq5ouiBFo

Croatia is a piss poor country, when it comes to metal, quite the opposite of Serbia. Weird, huh?
Ashes You Leaveyoutube.com /watch?v=vA49TF32jeA&list=PLF0B1E1A26FC21F53
and Aeonyoutube.com /watch?v=UZCBGBlHGOI
It took me a while to find these bands, though

The only chinese band worth a damn is Hades, nowadays known as Narakam

They are far from being good, but had they released an album in 1994, they would be fucking legendary. Sadly, they lost the mastertapes and we will never know.

Kazakhstan
Lead Weightyoutube.com /watch?v=PjNGt_BVBHs
The band started in early 90s, but they played speed / power metal. Then they split up, and reformed as Death / thrash.
another good band is Requiem, but you won't find them on ytmetal-archives.com /bands /Requiem /8076

Guatemala:
Sanctum Regnummetal-archives.com /bands /Sanctum_Regnum /23138
Rotting Corpse(s)metal-archives.com /bands /Rotting_Corpse /43838
They were featured on many comps and they slightly changed their name from Rotting Corpse to Rotting Corpses. Good band, but obscure and rough.
Okay, I'm talking a break. If this thread is still alive in an hour from now, I'll keep posting moar, and from better countries.
