Qual è Stata La Miglior Scena Rock/Metal? Band Inglesi o Americane?

Indubbiamente i movimenti musicali più grossi che hanno dominato la storia della musica Rock e Metal provengono dall'Inghilterra e dagli USA. Infatti se si escludono alcune frange del Metal provenienti dalla Scandinavia (Black Metal, Death Melodico e Power Metal) e dalla Germania (Speed/Power Metal) tutti gli altri generi vedono band inglesi ed americane dominare. Sarebbe impossibile citare tutte le band provenienti da queste due nazioni quindi sono state trascritte le principali, eventuali dimenticanze a parte. Quale delle due scene ha prodotto band maggiormente influenti/qualitative?
