Plenty of Canada representation here, so shouting out an album from a local group released 20 years ago.

Someone should’ve made a GUESS THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN BY THE BAND NAME thread.

A ton of Amorphis lyrics are based on Finnish mythology and Kalevala. Tomi Joutsen is an excellent vocalist

I’ll be honest, I’ve never really listened to CoB but I enjoy this cover

And just to have something actually in Finnish, here’s a Stam1na song. I don’t really listen to them either, but I’ve seen them live twice during festivals and they seem really nice and chill guys who have a good time playing

I am from Estonia.
Here are many various folk bands
Most famous metal folk band is Metsatöll who has been active since 1999.
They use various Estonia folk instruments and get inspiration from Estonia folklore.
Here is one example from their discography.
Song name is Vimm and in Estonian it means grudge
Metsatöll - Vimm - YouTube

Also Estonia punk genre is pretty colorful from all kinds of artists especially
from the 80’s when the Singing Revolution time.
The most outstanding band from them could be J.M.K.E who has been active from the late 80’s
Just an example from their 30th anniversary album ‘‘KĂŒlmale maale’’ (To the cold country).

From the pop world in general could be a rapper Tommy Cash who
now performs more overseas than here.
He is famous for his music videos what are
unique

I’m from Spain, and to tell the truth, I don’t listen that much to music from here, although there are some bands I really like. Almost all the songs I will post here are from before the 2000s, because I haven’t found bands that scratch the stich since then tbh There are some songs in Galician aside from Spanish too :smiley:

I don’t listen that much to german bands.

But this one I discovered because I saw their name on hp of the venue miyavi played at last year. I thought the name was so hilarious that I had to check them out

Acht Eimer HĂŒhnerherzen (eight buckets of chicken hearts)

I like this song especially since it talks about the region I grow up in. :grin:

Not a band but probably the german artist I listen to most: Annett Louisan

The mv was filmed in Berlin. Seems like I appriate my home more than I though :laughing:

Swedish here. And it’s KENT. Always and forever. When they announced they were gonna quit, they did it in this way - a march, with shots all connected to album covers, music videos and so on. While I cried when I first saw it 2016 it was still one of the coolest band announcements I’ve ever seen.

Stumbled upon this old thread so let me add my two cents :smiley:

I‘m from Croatia and don’t really listen to music from here. But two groups do stick out for me. One of them is „Jinx“. A pop group with various influences like jazz or bossa nova.

The other group is called „Pips, Chips & Videoclips“. One of the better and more prominent rock bands of the last 30 years. Especially their first three records are considered classics today.

Thank you for listening :slight_smile:

I am Brazilian living in Germany (for while) and i like the mpb genre.

There are so many other Brazilian artists that I love and admire for the strong poetry in their lyrics and the way their songs speak to the listener, especially Brazilians. It’s a universe of emotions that touch me in a way that’s quite different from anything I’ve ever heard.

my fav artists are:

thats one is nice. My german fav groups
