Your favorite band... from your country?

[Soeru]

What's your favorite band from your country? For me it would have to be Heroes del Silencio, an awesome Rock band from the early-mid 90's/late 80's. The vocalist has a really powerful voice, most people recognize him as Bunbury(Enrique Bunbury, whom now is sadly a queer-looking pop singer). I also really like Avulsed, a nice Death metal band.
Both of these bands are from Spain.
So what's yours? Oh yeah, don't forget to state what country your from.
note to Swedes/Norwegians/Finnish ppl: Please don't drive me crazy over all those kickass metal bands you have, I'm jealous enough as it is.

I really dont know. I like Slipknot and Linkin Park. I am from the USA. Not much of a challenge for me.

Isn't it Evanescence? Btw if you like it, check out Nightwish.
I forgot to mention Mel�n Diesel, a really cool Spanish rock/alt. Rock band, somewhat similar to Radiohead(some songs). Listen to the song "Grita", it's pretty good.

I'm very dissapointed of you, you didn't mention M�go de Oz, Dark Moor, Saratoga, Tierra Santa and Avulsed.

[Sir Zaphanos]

The Kristet Utseende! They're just damn good.
