Well? I only know a couple of bands from Brazil, like Angra and Sepultura.

Let's hear some non-Euro non-North American metal bands!

Orphaned Land - Israeli band, they play a mix of middle-eastern folk with doom/death and some progressive elements. Highly recommended.

The Berzerker.

They come from Australia and they had the world's fastest drummer..

in impenetrable darkness.
A chill rises

suddenly...
