The metal scene in your area

Well here in Regina Saskatchewan I find that it's pretty bad, but it has gotten a lot better over the past few months. We don't get very many bigger name bands anymore, but the local scene is quite alive. Those shows get a lot of people (the last one even sold out), but I find that a lot of bands don't come by here much anymore. I would like to see more bigger name metal bands play some shows here, but it just doesn't happen anymore. Before when they were supposed to play, they were often cancelled and that really irritated me.
As far as metal people are concerned, well I've been noticing a little more now than I did before as well. So to sum it up, I'd say that the scene was dying here, but it's being revived so to speak.

Well.. I guess we're all having the same problem ? Deathcore and Metalcore -_- gosh so many of them... but there is still some Thrashers round' here ! hell yeah, me ... my friends and yes yes some young metalheads that are starting to be around. I never thought there would be more of them than when I was in highschool myself but I guess there is some sort of revival in the movement, its good to see really and not only the Deathcore kids.. I saw some kids wearing Warbringer, Municipal Waste, Mastodon, Death Angel, Arsis, Exodus (...) shirts.. and for the shows, bahh... there is some at times in the small bars of Ottawa but not many big venues and when there is ... its rarely on big stages, anyways there is still the Rockfest (20 mins from my place, with alot of bands this year including Kataklysm, Gwar, Insurrection, Anonymus) and the Blues Fest (we're receiving Mastodon, Iron Maiden and Alice Cooper this year). But apart from that ? I go to Montreal really lol

Right here, No Metal scene to the farthest. However, this video will clear the "kinda of music" scene prevails here.

The Athenian black metal scene is quite developed and has really good bands. The deathg metal scene is less developed but still good and the rest of the scenes aren't that interesting. As far as people are concerned, thera are a lot of metalheads in Athens and many metal shops/bars/clubs.

In my country metal isn't that advanced, there are no old-school bands that growl or scream, just that normal voice of theirs and a bit heat on it. But there are some new bands out here that can also scream, that's what I'm always looking for.
