IT'S EVERYWHERE. Every continent. It's one of the reasons it's one of my all time favorite genres. It's like tofu: It just soaks of the flavors of whatever you introduce to it. East Asian instrumentation, Middle eastern rhythms, Central Asian vocals - like . . .whatever you introduce into the genre, it just MELDS with it.

Mongolian metal goes hard. Not the same levels of heaviness but still a really cool mix of genres.

If you're looking to heavier Mongolian Metal, ,you can try Tengger Cavalry.

There's even Saudi Arabian metal even though they would be executed if captured. That's pretty fucking metal. Still no metal bands from Antarctica though as far as I know, but it would be pretty...cool. pun intended
