Foreign Bands
I am a big fan of Rammstein which is a rare example of a non British/American band who sing in their native language becoming successful outside their country. In addition to Rammstein I like other German bands such as Tanzwut and in extremo. I feel Germany has excellent bands. Is there anyone else here who listens to non British/American bands who sing in their native language.

yeah, there's plenty of non anglophonic songs out there.
Os Mutantes - Panis et Circenses Translation: I wanted to sing a song sun lit Let the cloths on the masts in the air Let the tigers and lions in the yards But people in the dining room They are occupied in birth and death Sent to pure bright steel dagger To kill my love and killed At five o'clock on Central Ave. But people dining room They are occupied in birth and death I ordered plant leaves dreams in solar garden The leaves know to look for the sun And the roots seek, search But people dining room These people dining room But people dining room They are occupied in birth and death I wanted to sing a song sun lit Let the cloths on the masts in the air Let the tigers and lions in the yards But people in the dining room They are occupied in birth and death Sent to pure bright steel dagger To kill my love and killed At five o'clock on Central Ave. But people dining room They are occupied in birth and death I ordered plant leaves dreams in solar garden The leaves know to look for the sun And the roots seek, search But people dining room These people dining room But people dining room They are occupied in birth and death I wanted to sing a song sun lit Let the cloths on the masts in the air Let the tigers and lions in the yards But people in the dining room They are occupied in birth and death Sent to pure bright steel dagger To kill my love and killed At five o'clock on Central Ave. But people dining room They are occupied in birth and death I ordered plant leaves dreams in solar garden The leaves know to look for the sun And the roots seek, search But people dining room These people dining room But people dining room They are occupied in birth and death

I like a lot of prog from places other than America and England that sing in their own languages, and the voice just feels like another instrument to me and it doesn't bother me. But for some reason, it can be hard for me to enjoy other genres with foreign vocals. Except French, since I speak French.

Those foreigners can make solid tunes, crazy stuff. This is basically some of the best music that there is

For some reason I like singing in french a lot less than in other languages.
There's obviously a ton of great french music, so I do listen to it, but there's still something vaguely annoying about it. Singing in german is usually even more annoying to me, except for german hip-hop.
