Omnipresent americanism ...

This kinda thing really irks me ...

Heart of Cygnus impressed many with 2007’s debut ‘Utopia,’ a genuinely delightful and completely unexpected work of American progressive metal. With this years ‘Over Mountain Under Hill,’ a brilliant and nearly flawless work, Heart of Cygnus have become the future and bright hope of the genre in America. Unfortunately, it seems their greatest admiration and recognition comes from overseas. Let’s try to change that.

Ok, this in the internet, and the site this was posted on is used by people world wide. So why in hell would you write something directed at fans in the US only? And how is it unfortunate that a lot of fans are outside the US? Why is there any need to change this?

I really hate this kind of US eliticism ...
