I'm DJing a radio show...got suggestions?

Does anyone have any non-American punk/general hard rock/metal bands you’d recommend? (Particularly from Asia, Africa, South America, or Southern Europe?)

I’m going to be DJing a radio show and I’d LOVE to expand my repertoire a bit.

This is also a good way to get your favorite bands out there, so please give me some suggestions!

(A bit more info: The show is called Global Cacophony. It features punk rock/hard rock/metal from all over the world! I'm SUPER excited. If you want I'll send you a link so you can listen live!)

...Drawing a blank. Unless Flogging Molly counts (irish folk/punk).

@joygirl: They do indeed count!!! :D

Rammstein

Uhhhhhh...off the top of my head there is a group I kinda recently heard of called Lotus Feed...but they're New Wave...

Blutengel?

Sepultura(Brazil/Metal) and Bloodthirsty Butchers(Japan/Punk) is all I got.

Station sounds awesome by the way.

Damn! MetH really wanted to mention Japanese Cartoon but tHey're from the USA. How about... Does It Offend You, YeaH?

Oooh, COOL. I'll give those bands a look, that's EXACTLY the sort of thing I was looking for! And thank you!! :D

Of course it counts! I'll check them out!

SWEET. Thanks a ton!!!! These sound AWESOME! I didn't realize there was much of an Indian metal scene, but I bet it's amazing.

@icarusflies: No probs. Hope the show goes well and good luck.

@judasnixon: NICE, thanks!

@darkazrael999: Thank you!!!

Me First and the Gimme Gimmes has one album that's all in japanese (I know that's pushing it but I'm trying). OMG, also, Alestorm! They're scottish pirate metal and they rock!

Tyr. The Viking Metal band from the Faroe Islands.

Falconer a Folk Metal band from Sweden:

X Japan a metal band from...Japan!

@icarusflies: Use this as an into song if you're allowed to.

Wow! That sounds like a blast! =O I dunno what songs to jam to for the station but the ones recommended look awesome! Hope you have fun. It sounds really cool.

Irish rock is pretty awesome.

@icarusflies: Look up the BLK JKS and The Thirst.

Don't mess up....

@doomnaut: Exactly the kind of thing I was looking for, thank you!!!

@warlock360: NICE, thank you!!!

@joygirl: Pirate metal??!!! :O SWEEEET

@doomnaut: Viking metal is why we Americans don't think of the Scandanavians as total nerds. ;)

@judasnixon: You just have a ton of neat suggestions, don't you! :)

@doomnaut: Haha, I know Falconer. I often refer to them as the Non-Ironic Bird Band thanks to the Spirit of the Hawk song. I've got to check out X-Japan! :D

@decoyelite: Probably can't use it as an intro song, but I might be able to slip it into the show at some point.

@judasnixon: Awesome, thanks!
