Recently I was listening to some Belgian bands. I like some of them a lot and I wanted to share them with GMC. But I also want learn to know some new music, so let's hear what your favorite bands from your own country are!
This is my top 5:
1. Wallace Vanborn: I'm a huge fan of stoner rock and heavier rock genres, and this band is perfect! Their live shows are amazing and full of energy.
2. Steak Number Eight: some more heavy rock/sludge metal. And these guys were only 15 when they got famous in Belgium!
3. Channel Zero: a heavy metal band that exists for quite a while now. As with Wallace Vanborn, the energy at their shows is amazing. Sadly, their drummer past away not so long ago.
4. Triggerfinger: bluesrock masters! Their riffs are incredible!
5. Flatcat: I like punk a lot, so this genre could not be omitted from this list. This band is from my hometown. I didn't like them a lot, up until now. Their earlier records where too poppy for me, but now their songs are more rough.
Plus there are a lot more! Like Blackbox Revelation (blues rock), Millionaire (like QOTSA, and even Josh Homme likes them), Red Zebra, ...
Do any of you guys now one of these bands? What are your favorite bands from your country (or, maybe, for people in the USA: from your state)?
