I find it odd that bands like UFO, Accept, Saxon, Rose Tattoo, Circus Of Power and I'm sure there are others never made it big in America. Why are we so effin' picky when it comes to metal? Europe embraces all metal and you see sharing the stage at festivals bands like Mayhem, Bon Jovi, Slayer, Poison, Iron Maiden and Europe. You never see something like that here.

They like hard rock and metal in general and it doesn't matter if the band members are prettier than their girlfriends lol

Yeah, but back to the ones I originally mentioned I still don't understand. These were awesome metal and hard rock bands and why they didn't have the success here they do in Europe is baffling. Are Europeans more metal than Americans? It appears so and that sucks. Motorhead is England BTW.

MF is another band you could say is underrated, the musicianship of the band is fantastic.

Was into all these bands. Atrophy was pretty good. A lot good tracks from Sacred Reich, think they kinda got lost in trying to discover who they were. F&J I followed for a long time. I think up til the Unnatural Selection, then I lost interest in them.

I never lost interest in the underrated Overkill who never lost their edge and glad to see Testament and Death Angel back to form.

Yeah, I was watching That Metal Show and Alex was the guest guitarist and said that Testament has a new album coming out so lookin' forward to that.
