| Wouldn't it depend on the various subgenres? |

As a Prog Metal lover, it's hard to decide because my two favorite bands (Dream Theater and Symphony X) come from America, but almost every other favorite of mine in the genre comes from Europe. So that makes it tough to pick one side or the other....

Europe, no question. It's where the genre grew up, isn't it? I mean... Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple?

| I'm with Time Signature ^. Listen to bands from all over the world so didn't vote and have no preference. |

where the bands are from is irrelevant statistically, I think I know more bands from Europe. Not that I prefer them though.
