Just to be clear, these are the most popular metal bands from each country, according to worldwide listening stats, correct?
Yeah. I agree it’s fairly confusing. Seems to be the most listened to band from each country according to Spotify.
Oooooh, that explains why System of a Down didn’t show up in Armenia.

Somehow genuinely had no idea Gojira were French so, TIL!
Also wtf South Africa.
I’ve checked them out on Spotify and that is some dirty, filthy grindcore
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.
Check out Alcest. I’m obsessed with them
Actually will, cheers for the recommendation!
Check out Benighted! The new-ish guitarist is my old high school friend.
South Africa wins best bandname.
I don’t know, Bloodywood is a pretty fucking good name for an Indian metal band.
They go so fucking hard live too, absolute blast to watch
Until you find out what it stands for. Lol
ok well now i just have to know…
…oh my god
Best by character count.
It’s not even close.
Genuinely surprised to see that Eluveitie beats out Celtic Frost.
Edit: Just looked at the stats, and wow, it’s not even close: 872,935 to 120,157. That’s a real wtf. Insert Principal Skinner "…it’s the children who are wrong."jpg
Do you have a higher resolution picture?
Click the HD button in the top right but even that won’t help you spell South Africa’s favourite metal band.
Here we go "“XavlegbmaofffassssitimiwoamndutroabcwapwaeiippohfffX (abbreviated as Xavleg, aka 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) is a South African deathcore/ Christian music/ deathgrind/ death metal band. Its members rarely consider themselves Christians.”

… Ha?
That’s what the priest said.
Fucking THANK YOU! I’ve been wondering what the abbreviation was for since some dude offhandedly mentioned it in a comment above. I didn’t want to have to figure out how to google all that lol.
Side note, however:
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
Christian music
Its members rarely consider themselves Christians
I am now even more confused.
Switched to HD and downloaded. It’s clear.
Of course The Hu are the mongolian one. Theyre awesome.
Their cover of enter sandman cracks me up. Super great band!
Not bad but Yat-Kha is my choice that brought metal to Mongolian music first.
My friends are metalheads but I’m not. Popped this over to our discord to see what comes up.
First response: “Greenland is a country. What the fuck?”
They are a vassal state of denmark
Visions Of Atlantis in a land locked country.
That’s how they’re sure it wasn’t actually there, just a vision.
Surprised to see New Zealand on the map.
Surprised their band isn’t ulcerate
Why? Alien Weaponry is a solid band. Check them out.
It’s a reference to the phenomenon where map makers tend to ommit including New Zealand.

Monthly views of what?
Of each of the bands.
All this proves to me is that the global takeover by Metal is nearly finished, soon the whole world will be metal!
Yeah, screw all the other trolls!
Anyone have a playlist with a song from each?

Thank you!
I was not disappointed when I zoomed in on France.
France and Ukraine rocking that home field advantage here.
As a Moroccan, I’ve never heard of Torpedo until today.
I’m pretty sure barely anyone here actually knows them.
Jinjer is amazing. Her voice has such a range
