well that's a tricky question if u notice most of the original metal bands in America aren't from America like Judas Priest for instance and AC/DC both are from around the area of Britain but gained almost all of there fame here in America but the very first metal band ever and literally the for fathers of what we listen to today came from Birmingham England the almighty BLACK SABBATH so I'm not entirely sure but i think that the British people back when metal started to form metal bands Britain was still in the 60's swingers era so many bands over there headed for America where they found there fan base for instance jimmy Hendrix was from America but his style was that of like 60's peace and love and he didn't do very well here in America to start off he headed to England with his manager and struck gold the same time hardcore metal bands were leaving England and headed for America where they hit gold see what i mean?? all in all id say metal was popular in England among the musicians but not the fans but in America it was popular among the fans not the musicians so id say Britain and America is where it all started well in my opinion.
