Do Nordics really like heavy metal music? Why?

much like their tastebuds, their earbuds are so bereft of stimulation that even incoherent noise sounds good

>>76943561
Because its the white mans music, together with classical music

>>76943561
>Why?
Autism

Only metal song I've ever liked.

>>76943561
yes, they do. Because, unlike American metal, their music is actually good.

Nordic metal:

American metal:

notice how Amon Amarth have actual melodies and harmony in their song, while Pantera sound like "muh ugliness! muh suffering! muh straight edge!"

not that Pantera isn't great, but it's easier to like music when it actually sounds good, you know?

Neither of those bands are very good, just what average mallshopping normies tend to like. Worthwhile metal comes from just about all 1st world countries, and a bunch of notable stuff from former soviet bloc and Latin American countries.

I could go on but you get the idea. The question really is why the Scandinavian countries produced so MUCH metal for such a relatively small population. An exception being made for Denmark, who made jackshit aside from the excellent Mercyful Fate and Artillery. Some reading I've done indicates that teenagers in Sweden, Norway, and Finland had ample resources to start bands: money for instruments, rehearsal spaces in town, and plenty of spare time. It's also a matter of timing, as metal reached critical mass in the late 80s with thrash peaking in popularity and the emergence of death/black metal. Each country had a scene that kids were eager to hop on with their own bands, and the record labels saw a lot of potential once bands like Entombed and Emperor started shifting significant units.

Why doesn't Scandinavia produce quality black metal anymore?? All the good bands come from Canada, USA, or Central and Eastern Europe

>>76944770
Ensiferum is good, but I generally find the vocals to be too harsh for my tastes.

These two bands represent two different genres thats why. You can find melodic bands like Amon Amarth in the US and trash metal bands like Pantera in Scandinavia.

You don't seem to know anything about metal kek.

Elvis made normal rock white decades before metal was a thing, screaming into a microphone is degenerate as fuck

>>76951805
>lead degenerate lifestyle, make music about degeneracy
>die in a toilet stall from drug overdose

>somehow less degenerate than music about European traditional culture

Gas yourself out of existence, Schlomostein.

>>76952013
He only turned degenerate in the 70s, and any of his classic songs from the 50s are far less degenerate than any Eurofag screaming

>>76952202
>screaming is degen-

Only in metal, classical and rock you can see the instruments being played to their maximum limits. Metal music is truly the god's gift to mankind and untalented niggers will never understand it, or be able to play it

>>76952493
Something invented after the degeneration of Western society is degenerate. Get over it. I enjoy some types of degen music but I don't try to convince anyone it isn't degenerate, metal is degenerate as fuck

Steve n' seagulls are the only metal band that I like, they came to my city once and they are amazing live.

>>76952571

>>76952724
Obviously all music produced in 2017 is degenerate, you'd have to be insane to think otherwise
