>American white ''''music''''
Either inferior copy of black music or british music

>knowing this little of music history
US has blues and rock before brits.

It doesn't really have anything to do with 'color'.

Germans do experimental stuff better than any other western country. Stuff like Rammstein and the Scorpions isn't representative of their contributions to modern music at all.

>Scorpions isn't representative of their contributions to modern music at all.
What is? I've always seen Scorpions as pretty contemporary.

You clearly don't know history. The Beatles invented Rock, and they were from the UK.

Bands like Neu! and Kraftwerk as well as Krautrock and the early electronic movement in general had a big impact on a lot of anglo musicians such as David Bowie, Iggy Pop, and Lou Reed. There's a reason why so many famous rock musicians of the 70s and 80s went to Berlin to record albums. They've made a fuckhuge contribution to rock music considering they're not an English-speaking country, mostly under the radar but there nonetheless.

Shitty photo mate

>expecting anything good

>not naming what they are
coward

Hes right, Metallica and Van Halen are only good US bands on list.

>Metallica and Van Halen
*Anthrax and Van Halen

Slayer and half a point for Metallica and Pantera
Black Sabbath counts as two good bands, althoughI should give half a point to Zeppelin
Kreator

New Metallica sucks

Best krautrock bands are CAN and amon duul 2

>quit drinking
>"talent" disappears immediately
>many bands who are ten years or more their senior who influenced them are still going strong
what a joke of a band

my nigga

Metallica and Van Halen

[power gap]
Kiss
Guns n Roses
Anthrax-Megadeth

[power gap]
everything else

Because the rock and metal genres started and was perfected in the likes of the UK and the US, they're Anglo/English-language genres of music.

AWFUL taste friend
Never post again

>not creating a separate bottom of the barrel absolute garbage tier for Manowar

New Metallica is fine, its better than circa 1999

;)

I NEED YOUR TOUCH

>new Metallica is fine
they have no business settling for being "fine" after releasing albums like Ride the Lightning and MoP. They're a bunch of soccer dads who ran out of ideas 17 years ago,

Def Leppard is among the most overrated bands ever.

KISS is the number one most overrated band of all time.

>wearing a flag shirt

>They're a bunch of soccer dads who ran out of ideas 17 years ago,
At least they've come to terms with that and they aren't still childish and stopped doing blues rock and whatever St. Anger was.

>Def Leppard is among the most overrated bands ever.
>>wearing a flag shirt

lmao at both of you nerds.

>American bands are generic shit
>German bands are edgy shit
>British bands are overrated shit

>New Metallica is fine

New Iron Maiden >>>> new Metallica

>KISS is the number one most overrated band of all time.
Being a band is about giving a show, KISS gave a show. Spitting blood and big sets with pyro shows are still rare.

the money is in your account old chap ;)

not him, but I never really liked Maiden that much but I do have to recognize that they're still basically as good as they were 30 years ago, which not many bands can say.

>dragonforce

>New Metallica is fine
No it isn't

(you)

Why are they shit?
They have goofy accents sometimes.
Scorpions for example. This is a nice song but a goofy accent is a bit distracting:

>Internet Metal Nerds

Def Leppard gets good radio play here but flag shirts are a lot to look at.

Black Sabbath is the best out of all of them because ozzy is a fucking legend.

Calm down Mexico City, they will be touring there soon.

>ameriADHDs

Here's Black Sabbath with Deep Purple's vocalist.

youtube.com/watch?v=sNL3HO6uXqw

>because ozzy is a fucking legend.
I was thinking how Ozzy didnt make it to this list but I considered hes universal

this whole album is unironically great. I just wish the production wasn't so fucking awful.

Butler was the true legend
Black Sabbath is definetly the most influential metal band ever though

Bless 'em for doom metal and sludge

Born Again was ok album, Hotline is a good track.

Black Sabbath was made by Tony Iommi. A lot of their albums without Ozzy were fantastic.

>tfw live near the popular concert venues
>Get to hear all concerts from my window at reasonable non annoying volume

umm where's Venom? their album Black Metal literally gave birth to a new genre - back when you could actually understand what the fuck the frontman was singing.

youtube.com/watch?v=JgbKU7-iVHI

Avantasia, Blind Guardian, and Helloween are great.

Is Glen Hughes considered a DP or BS vocalist or neither?

Megadeth is the premier thrash metal band and everyone knows it.

Mustaine ever doing vocals was a mistake.

metallica is danish

The worst part of Metallica and the reason they turned to shit is Danish.
So fuck off, Daneshit.

Why was this allowed?

youtube.com/watch?v=Yo5WQjPwumw

metallica is good because they are danish

As much as it pains me to give the British credit for something, the Brit column is the only one with actual music.

It started in America, to be fair.

You aren't big in America if you don't have a southern influence.

with cheese

>You aren't big in America if you don't have a southern influence.

But Def Leppard were already big in America.

But now... You have to have southern influence.

wrong they are danish and good because of that. americans are bad at music

danes are bad tennis players ;)

unless they're brown

Why was this allowed?

youtube.com/watch?v=mvBwNz04Ois

lying is a sin

They needed mileys southern influence to get viewers

>starts a discussion about how Germans are inferior at music
>accuses others of ignorance of music history

>Germans are inferior at music
Their bands are... Its clear to see.

Its also mainline history rock and blues was starting in the appalachians.

>Why are German bands such shit compared to US and Brits?

Umm.. think again honey

youtube.com/watch?v=LCWvZAv3txQ

not german and not metal, but i like lacrimosa
dark and moody and also in german, just perfect
but considering what bands you are talking about here, you probably haven't heard of them

Put Nazis on something and continentals will go nuts.

3rd to the bottom british column

>Yes, I am a fascist.

hehe

Black Sabbath?

Lol what?

Are you like assuming my political stance?

fyi i don't care about politics.

No one follows these bands domestically. They are purely making bank abroad while riding one the 'German is so hardcore and evil' meme.

Same here with shit like Behemoth and Vader

>They are purely making bank abroad while riding one the 'German is so hardcore and evil' meme.
Its all Central and South Americans desu, go to Spotify or Itunes or whatever. They are only ones consuming metal enough to be profitable.

no, that was a string from uploader's about page in profile

Nobody follows Rammstein in Germany? Really.

They are and aren't the prime example for different reasons.

Their lyrics are very primitive, actually but if you don't speak the language then you don't have very high expectations or a feeling for that.

You have the very same effect in lots of European countries. American pop songs with shitty in ridiculous or shitty lyrics get cut more slack than songs in the actual native languages.

The only reason why they are kind of popular at home are their extreme live shows.

>German music is ba-
youtube.com/watch?v=koVY-zMzeVQ

Oh, okay.

music for non-brainlets

youtube.com/watch?v=M5nsIFQXeH8

their are shows are fucking amazing. i don't care about the lyrics :D
this is berlin btw. judging by the crowd i wouldn't say they are "kinda" popular there.

Those are continentals, they come from all over the EU on EU tax monies.

>i don't care about the lyrics :D
~all thrash metal fans

Rock is fucking lame as hell. I'd rather listen to country than the pile of horseshit that heavy/metal rock is.

UK used to have a lot of great metal bands, not so much anymore.

The U.S. underground is where it's at now. At least for grindcore, black metal, etc.

>when an American cartoon has better music than an entire country
lol

> rammstein
> thrash metal

>rock is lame
>he meant to imply listening to country is bad
the sad state of America, our culture is dead.
Granted I realize its because country music became pop-country garbage. But thats an issue in itself.
I just can't believe a country that grew up on bluegrass, then country, and early rock now views it as such a terrible thing.
Meanwhile spic and nig-hop songs are topping the charts.

Traditional Americana is dead, every generation moving forward really is LE 56% face. I'm so done with this gay earth bring on civil war or WW3, pelase.

Why do 99% of German bands sing in English? When I tried finding something in German I found like 5 examples

Commercial issues. English is spoken by almost eveyone now, while German is just spoken in some specific countries

Yeah but every country has people who sing in their own language. It seems like in every genre 99% of Germans sing in English. At least I couldn't find it.
