Is metal more popular overseas than in the US? If so, why?

Ron H, it's great to hear that there still are some hardcore fans out there!

Keep the Faith, stay Metal and worship the Priest!

I don't know if he was a church goer or not. He was definitely rough around the edges. After the second tale of dead animals I began to wonder  about the veracity of  his cougar sightings. 

After someone I lived with (nope, not me) fed some chicken bones to our dog, in the summer, not noticing the dog was dead for one day or so until it began to smell, and having to dispose of the rotting creature whose bits were dripping away to the woods with the bucket of the tractor along with the doghouse, since then I can't stand to see dead dogs.
I have to say it's very death gore metal in a typical american way.

What I find really sick is the latest "Chupacabra" catch, by some taxidermist in TX. That specimen is a dog. It might very well be a bald dog, but the 
breed exists, and it has a name. Xole is the shortened version of it's long name. It was just a scared hungry dog, he poinsoned.

Everyone knows that my hope in life is that the gates of paradise are guarded by animals.

That guy is probably a good "Church goer" too. Sad and I really hope he is attacked by the ghost cougar / chupacabra some day.

It makes me sick to my stomach to have to agree with you that America is so commercialized!!!!  At the same time, it's also what helped commercialize Metal in the late 70's and 80's..."if American's will buy it...." but I'll put "our" core Metalheads with "yours" anytime!!!  Metalheads, I would argue, are the most loyal fans world wide!!!!!!!!  Keep the faith, Izzystone!!

You're right, it's the Chupacabra, not the animal owner who wants to get rid of unwanted and mistreated animals.

Metal is way bigger in Europe. I don't know why, but maybe it's because of the commercialized culture in US, and Europe has built an enormous metal scene the last thirty years, while US has become more and more commercail. And remember that metal was born in England, and British Metal is still the best!

Oh, THAT was a chupacabra, no doubt! Puerto Rico, Cuba, México are full of them. I even hear that they caught one recently. Nope. Chupacabras are to blame.

Hi Guido...I don't think bugs are the scariest creatures in the countryside: I think ghost cougars are the scariest. A neighbor of mine once had an old horse that somehow "unfortunately" tripped and fell into a ditch and died. Now the neighbor blamed it on a cougar stalking the animal and kept pointing at some puncture wounds on the dead animal and some cat paws nobody seemed to recognize...perhaps because there are no cougars in the region. Biggest cat is a bobcat, lots of wild domestics, racoons, skunks and deer.
Quite scary that ghost cougar, don't you think?
That neighbor was haunted, of course. Lots of his animals kept dying from strange occurrences...the older the nag, the greater the risk of death by ghost cougar...or accidental falls.

Beware of ghost cougars.

Good point...that part of the shoe is usually hidden by the pant leg...too bad.
