The most popular metal band (2024) from each country, according to Spotify

I looked up the South African band. They mostly go by Xavleg. The full name is an initialism for “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”. They are a Christian band.

I was familiar with Overthrust from Botswana just to the north because Vice did an amazing article on them years ago (that fortunately has been captured by the Wayback Machine since the photos are gone on the live site):

African. Cowboy. Death metal.

I used to follow them on Facebook back before I ditched social media. Their aesthetic and commitment to the bit is fucking fantastic.

Every single country appears to have better taste in metal than the US.

I agree with you, but also if you asked me to pick one metal band to represent American metal, I’d struggle greatly to pick just one.

I don’t discredit what Metallica contributed to the metal genre. Hell, I was once a hardcore Metallica fan. But since their heyday, many much better bands have appeared. And with actually good drummers.

Create post

A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don’t be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.

We are agents of chaos I’ve created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named “mapporncirclejerk”

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say “take time to grow and come back when you are ready”.
