Who rocks harder? America or Europe
 

America short list:
Nirvana
Tool
Pearl Jam
GnR
Metallica
Alice In Chains
Pantera
All 80's hair bands

Europe short list:
Stones
Beatles
Oasis
Hendrix
The Who
Zepplin
Sabbath

Not Europe, Not America BRITAIN!

Jimi Hendrix?

Well, I think he first became famous there and his bandmates were British.

jimmi is from rainy seatle
so give europe Iron Maiden

I dont like any of those, but these:
Gamma Ray
Helloween
Blind Guardian
Stratovarius
Rhapsody
etc...

but this stuff is a bit harder :)

America rocks harder, no doubt about it.

well you have different eras and styles of rock listed but i would agree about moving Jimi to the US side and adding Iron Maiden to the Europe list.

btw. with the exception of Iron Maiden i would say America rocks harder but Europe may win on the Classics list

Cool, my list was purposely short. I don't even know many European bands. You guys seem like you weren't impacted all that much by 'grunge' or even Nu Metal (ex. tool, korn, etc).

Ah but lets just give "props" where they due...Sabbath and Zepp. really started it all...so back in the day. Europe Rocked alone. the US followed suit.

Europe of course

who cares where they are from? Tons of good bands listed and many more out there yet to be discovered.

I dont follow the scene that much, the bands posted are not so popular among all people. Most dont even know them, radio stations and music TVs play mostly pop. If you didnt hear about them yet, check some samples online. :)

Alice In Chains rocks harder than all of Europe by themselves.

actually UK and USA

The sad part is that there are millions of good bands all over the world but we'll never hear them simply coz they will never have the money to market their music....

We probably have more alcohol-related deaths, but they probably fuck more.

Europe of course....

You forgot:

EUROPE:
Scorpions


America:
Kiss

aaah who can forget Long Tongue Gene :)

There is no such thing as american unless you're talking about the real native
americans other than that it's Europe Version 2 :pimp

Icehouse (one of my all-time 80's favorites)

Rush
The Guess Who
Neil Young
BTO
Steppenwolf
April Wine

great bands

Bingo...

US is better at middle of the road rock...UK is better at classic rock and indie rock...Europe is better at black and death metal

Aerosmith

I'm more particular with the bands, not on countries.

I guess it's America.

Beatles country rocks!
