This is part 2 of my mission to get a picture of a metal band from every country on earth.
Last time I managed to get a band from pretty much every country in the world from A-B, now let’s see how we get on with C-D. There’s many more “FAILs” in this list than I would like, so if any of you can fill in the blanks, I would appreciate it:
Slitensix:
No mucking about here:
This is Steve Jouwersma, the guy that formed Cameroon’s first ever metal band – Ngos’a Bedimo’s. It was an art project that wasn’t well received by the god fearing, ghost fearing population and lasted just three weeks. It seems that Cameroon is still pretty much devoid of metal I’m afraid…
This one wasn’t too tricky as you can imagine… After The Bombs:
FAIL
FAIL – the CAR only have heavy metal in the form of guns at the moment.
FAIL
Boa hail from Santiago:
I thought it would be hard to find Chinese metal bands, but actually there’s a good few about. Here’s Corpse Cook, or in Chinese – 尸厨
Amputated Genitals play brutal death metal (of course) and live in Bogotá:
FAIL – Comoros? Anyone? Apparently it’s a sovereign archipelago island nation in the Indian Ocean, located at the northern end of the Mozambique Channel off the eastern coast of Africa, between northeastern Mozambique and northwestern Madagascar. Population around 800,000. So no metal to be found. It’s more like this…
Infertile Surrogacy say they’re from the Congo but I’m not sure I believe them:
FAIL – Buuuut… US based Forsaaken feature a member that was in a TV show called SURVIVOR: COOK ISLANDS in 2006, so that will have to do:
FAIL
Death metal from Varaždin by Corpse Grinder:
Azotobacter from Santa Clara playing a bit of death and thrash…
Vomitile hail from Nicosia and they are on a label called Horror Pain Gore Death Productions (LOL):
There are loads to choose from in the Czech Republic, including a now defunct band called .springofdrownedpanda. and one called Bad Face. I went for Ahumado Granujo from Prague in the end:
FAIL – In a country where all music must be state sanctioned and the majority can’t afford rice let alone amps, it’s no surprise that there isn’t a teeming metal scene in North Korea.
From Copenhagen – A Kid Hereafter In The Grinding Light, they play avant-garde death metal.
FAIL – This tiny country is located in the Horn of Africa and borders Eritrea in the north, Ethiopia in the west and south, and Somalia in the southeast. Its population is around 800,000 so there must be some metallers in this French speaking Islamic state? Surely?
FAIL – tiny island in the Caribbean Sea. No chance.
It seems that the Dominican Republic is well into it’s black metal for some reason, I found 10 without trying. Malefic:
And we’re done with the D to C section. Way too many fails. Any help would be appreciated… here’s the rest…
