SodjesSixteenIncher Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Second yin is only really thre on the basis of being the only band I ken with origins in Ukraine Denmark Ukraine (via upbrining in the States) Sweden (not a band but still having it) Germany Basshunter, Scooter and Rammstein tragically miss out.

SodjesSixteenIncher Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Oh and seeing as this thread will eventually be us all trying to think of anyone we know from the obscure countries to fill the list, Rita Ora is Kosovar and the boy from System Of A Down is Armenian, I think.

CityDave Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Oh and seeing as this thread will eventually be us all trying to think of anyone we know from the obscure countries to fill the list, Rita Ora is Kosovar and the boy from System Of A Down is Armenian, I think. System of a Down's singer Serj Tankian was born to Armenian parents in Lebanon. He has had solo albums out so could be counted as Armenian. System of a Down were formed in Glendale, California so should be regarded as an American band but with a mix of American, USSR and Lebanon born musicians.

Smurph Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 The Hives absolutely have to be number one for Sweden, as wonderful as Magican's remix of Lyyki Li might be. Although, if we're going for remixes, Tove Lo is Swedish too, so I'd plump for Hippie Sabotage's Stay High effort. Bjork or Sigur Ros should win for Iceland. Kraftwerk for Germany. Stromae for Belgium. Armin van Buuren for Netherlands. The Rasmus for Finland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Raccoon Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Excellent call on The Hives, fantastic band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurph Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I love The Hives. The Rasmus was a joke but unless we're going for some obscure gothic-folk-metal band like Korpiklaani or Kivimestan Druidi (who I have both seen live) I don't see another option. Infected Mushroom are from Israel. t.A.T.u are Russian. Andrea Bocelli needs to be the Italian, although not a band. Edit - The Caesars are Swedish too. And The Bomfunk MC's should actually be the Finnish option. Death to death metal, freestyla' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
