Monthly views of what?
Of each of the bands.
This needs a per capita, otherwise just another map of population or Spotify Accounts
It’s the number of views for each bands (as it is one band per country). It’s not a map population of Spotify accounts, otherwise you would see Mexico in much darker green for instance (and Australia less dark)
None of that fake shit, WWE cuz you know we keep it real like the UFC…
UUHHH…
Can’t recommend Moldova (Infected Rain) and Georgia (Psychonaut 4) enough! Great bands!
Somehow genuinely had no idea Gojira were French so, TIL!
Also wtf South Africa.
Check out Benighted! The new-ish guitarist is my old high school friend.
Benighted has always been my favorite franchement band, above Gojira. Living in Lyon, I see Julien (the leader & singer) at nearly every gig that happens in that city.
Super, moi je parlais de Manu le gratteux. Le mec était déjà un génie dans notre petit groupe de pre-ados/ados, tu lui mettais une track il l’écoutait une fois et ensuite on la remettait et il jouais pratiquement nickel avec le morceau, un monstre.
N’étant pas musicien, j’ai jamais compris comment c’était possible ce genre de choses. Mais c’est sûr que ce ne sont pas des manchots, leur batteur est excellent aussi par exemple. Et nouvel album dans 2 semaines !!!
Je suis musicien mais moi non plus je ne comprends pas, je te rassure ^-^’
Je n’écoute plus trop de métal mais j’irai regarder ça.

For anyone curious
Speaking as a South African, never heard of them.
You have, it’s just that that name fits in nobody’s memory. /s
There are a few surprises here, tbf. I had no idea that Pentagram was Turkish (although, maybe it’s a different Pentagram). I kinda remembered that Sepultra that was Brazilian, but I’m not really a fan, so I had mostly forgotten.
You’re probably thinking of the Pentagram from Virginia.
considered one of the “big four of doom metal,” alongside Candlemass, Saint Vitus and Trouble
Yep, I was thinking of the VA Pentagram.
I was somehow thinking of Phantogram and wondering “huh, never knew they did heavy stuff.”
Also wtf South Africa.
Yeah, can someone help me out with a pronunciation guide on that one?
It’s pronounced just like it’s spelled.
Xavleg (zav-leg) is the accepted “short” name for when you need to say it out loud or write it and can’t be bothered to put the whole thing
The whole thing is an abbreviation for a bunch of gross shit with X’s on the front and end.

English speakers most often use a Z sound for an X at the start of the word, like xenon and xylophone. I’m ignorant of how it would be pronounced by speakers of other languages, but all my conversations about the band (all three of them, lol) have been in English
In German x is pronounced ks or kz
But in Afrikaans it’d be a ks
Good thing that it’s an abbreviation. It wouldn’t have fit on the record sleeve otherwise.
Oh it fits just fine:
I’ve checked them out on Spotify and that is some dirty, filthy grindcore
So in other words, nothing you’d be able to find on Encyclopaedia Metallum (unless they also got classified as some genre without “core” in it)
Edit: just joking. Mostly. I am still pretty salty about the fact that their gatekeeping is denying Every Time I Die their rightful place among the metal greats
They’re also declining Lorna Shore from being added as well.
That’s so stupid who the fuck can even begin to claim they’re not metal
Looked up the site and it seems like they also don’t have Between the Buried and Me or Protest the Hero so it seems like it’s one of those “exclusionary to be pretentious and no other reason” kind of sites
They’re great at finding new bands as long as the bands are properly “metal,” but they arbitrarily exclude any genre that includes the term “core” which seems like a miss to me.
They have a pretty narrow definition of metal I don’t always agree with (like cocktail and ball torture missing), but I’m sure glad it’s not flooded with -core bands.
Check out Alcest. I’m obsessed with them
Actually will, cheers for the recommendation!
Brazil is as expected
So is Denmark, but as a F Dane, I’m still slightly disappointed.
Should be mercyful fate
I would call Volbeat rock, but are they really metal?
Good question!
Yeah that one was predictable
Yo fuckin Elis, I haven’t listened to them since… Well, since their original singer’s brain went and popped (cerebral hemorrhage). They were pretty kick ass.
Destiny Potato with the Party Cannon energy.
Something seems sus here…
No two countries have the same favorites?
the title was a little bit confusing. it’s the map of popular bands by the country of origin.
That’s not what the map is showing.
WTF is Awakening Sun :D
Parkway Drive are a fucking great band, Australia can do metal
Yeah they are great if you are a 35 year old girl
I don’t understand your comment
Parkway drive aka BMTH with an Aussie flavor. Music that white millennial girls bump too loud when they wanna look cool
Ohhhh you’re one of those guys. Have you ever considered that people, especially those who have made it into their mid-30s, especially women, make choices that have nothing to do with putting on a show for anyone else?
It’ll change your world if you realise that once you’re a certain age (the younger the better) you don’t actually care whether people think you’re ‘cool’ - an ever-changing something that’s only meaningful to people in highschool.
🍆
To scale?
Yep, round and bulbous
Wormrot is the best on the list, hands down.
Kinda surprised sabaton beats amon amarth
I’m not. They fucking rock.
They aren’t very worshipped over here in western canada like the other mentioned bands here
And in flames… Opeth…
Yeah good point, I’ve been into metal since I’m 14 and sabaton was never a band I cared about for some reason haha, always amazed by their popularity
It’s very palatable metal for people who migrated from Arctic Monkeys and like European history.

if It is be English language It without a doubt would be bedwetters (in Estonia)
South Africa looks like a cat walked across the keyboard
Full name: Acidic Vaginal Liquid Explosion Generated by Mass Amounts of Filthy Fecal Fisting and Sadistic Septic Syphilic Sodomy Inside the Infected Maggot Infested Womb of a Molested Nun Dying Under the Roof of a Burning Church While a Priest Watches and Ejaculates in Immense Perverse Pleasure Over His First Fresh Fetus.
Yuck
We get it, band. You’re edgy.
You can really see where the Taint Nation boundaries lie. Once you’re a Taint fan, you’re never the same
“Then, everything changed when the Taint Nation attacked.”
