10.09.14 | Never really realised just how top notch both countries are dayum |
Keyblade
10.09.14 | Both scenes rule and the Canadian one especially is kinda overlooked. Frozen Shadows is another sweet Canadian band |
Hyperion1001
10.09.14 | agreed with key but i still think american is the stronger of the two
i usually like to think of it as north american black metal and put the two in the same category since they share so many similarities |
SCREAM!
10.09.14 | Yeah could've easily added more for each country, not sure why I felt 12 was an "adequate" number but oh well.
The US definitely has an advantage when it comes to numbers but if you look at consistency that Canadian scene is doing pretty damn well |
MO
10.09.14 | Endemise from Ottawa are very solid |
Jots
10.09.14 | probably should know some more of the Canadian acts since they're my frosty brethren, so I'll get on it. Been meaning to get into more BM lately, and I like what I've heard from Gris especially |
ChoccyPhilly
10.09.14 | European BM >
Canadian BM >
US BM |
SCREAM!
10.09.14 | @MO They're definitely solid but they never really wow'ed me the couple of times I saw them play live tbh
@Johnny the bands listed here are definitely a good starting point (Blasphemy is first wave BM like Von though so pretty different from the others on here). I've got lots more to rec should you want to go deeper as well! |
Keyblade
10.09.14 | Didn't realize SIG:AR:TYR was Canadian, sweet
Btw just noticed your profile pic haha, good shit |
SCREAM!
10.09.14 | @choccy not sure comparing a whole continent to countries is really a valid comparison. You'd have to do country to country or at least region |
ChoccyPhilly
10.09.14 | I suppose, but i only did it cos the US and canada are HUGE. However, that doesn't mean much to the Canada given the
population |
Artuma
10.09.14 | norwegian bm > other things |
Atari
10.09.14 | idk but i think i'm gonna check out 6 |
SCREAM!
10.09.14 | Have you heard the others? |
DungeonBoy
10.09.14 | Obviously America cause 'Merica |
DungeonBoy
10.09.14 | But I don't know who rules more Gris or WITTR. tough call |
Atari
10.09.14 | "Have you heard the others?"
Just 7 and 9, but I dig the artwork for 6 so i'm just drawn to it. feel free to rec me anything else |
SCREAM!
10.10.14 | @Atari I'd say the list as a whole is a nice intro to both scenes. Some of my faves from each and my fave album by each |
