That's a big part of the influence and why the US & UK have domintated the scene for so long, while you see a lot of little subgenres like death metal coming out of countries like sweden and germany. I guess it becomes nationlistic in the sense of the musicians and their fans and their identities. Music cannot stand without identity. It's just too bad there isn't much talent in that equation right now for any country at least not that I've heard yet insofar as new musicians.
