Who are some other metal bands? Specifically, the european sounding ones. I'm curious to know who else is out there.

It seems as if you have alot more metal going on than our area. We have... not much at all. Quite a few metal-influenced bands, but it seems like everything is really somehow connected back to hardcore and I'm just tired of it. There are some bands and I'm sure that there are more who I don't know about, but... yeah. The biggest problem is that, like in your area, it seems that many of the metal kids are very interested in out-metaling eachother, which is a real shame.

In case I haven't plugged it enough, I drum for a band from Philadelphia called Kiriyama that played Fall River a week ago. http://www.mp3.com/kiriyama
