    I have been asking myself that question for weeks and finally I think we europeans (sorry my american mates) got slightly the better sound.

    both really good awesome bands and rockstars, it was really hard to decide, but you can't beat the northern viking metal at the end of the day!

    I really don't know to be honest, too much of a divide.

    If you are saying mainstream music right now, it has to be Europe. But both sides of the Atlantic have really good bands that aren't played on the radio every 5 seconds and worshipped by the hordes of 15 year old girls that mass media prostitutes itself out to...

    It comes down to genre as well.

    that's a good shout mate.


    I think if you are very into hip hop and rap you can't beat the masters of that genre, the americans.

    I especially enjoy heavy metal (nwbm, europe wins), thrash (america wins), viking metal (europe wins) :icon_mrgreen:

    Disney Channel is the bane of American civilization. Brittany Spears, Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, Hillary Duff, High School Musical, and Lindsay Lohan all had dealings with Disney. They just roll them out like a factory.

    Shes a lesbian. Shes going out with a DJ called Samantha Ronson.

    I couldn't decide because I love Americans like Miley Cyrus, JT, HSM and Britney (yes I do still watch the Disney Channel. Sad, I know). But Girls Aloud are my fave band of all time so thats me totally undecided.

    As he said, pumpable :icon_mrgreen::icon_mrgreen:

    lets be brutally honest though, america has produced people like the jonas brothers and miley cyrus.

    we have producted people like Leon Jackson and Steve Brookstein.

    we have both * up severely in the music industry.
