In terms of quality, UK definitely wins in my book.

Actually, ill take UK just for its 70s prog. alone I much prefer the popular music there as well than the ones in the US.
And not to forget sweden along, just for its quality in terms of modern metal.

Meshuggah
Opeth
Pain Of Salvation
Dismember
Dissection
Sacramentum
At the Gates
Dark Tranquility
InFlames
Soilwork
Bathory
Bloodbath
Katatonia
Candlemass
Amon Amarth
Marduk
Diabolical Masquerade
Arckanum

I could just go on, but ill stop for now. US comes in 3rd i guess.
