I'm with Dave on this one, which UK bands are you basing this theory on, it
sounds like a pile of uninformed  to me.

I challenge anyone on the list to name a NZ or AUS band who can match the
loudness of Brighouse & Rastrick (and probably many other UK bands, which I
won't bother listing).  B&R band must be one of the loudest bands around
(but still with a controlled huge sound), and I would argue that they are
also just about the quietest as well.

I doubt NZ or AUS bands come anywhere near, afterall the best bands in the
world come from Yorkshire (well, apart from YBS !!).
