Bafoussam Massangam from Cameroon (black metal) but you will hardly find any info on them in the internet. Here is a review for french-speaking people :

I read in a music magazine that bands (not just metal) are emerging all the time from South Africa.

The thing with South Africa is that most rock bands or artists coming from there are white, like Manfred Mann or Trevor Rabin - the black artists play music that is more rooted in their own tradition.

Wow!
Thats awesome, I've always wondered the same as well. 
But the obvious ones I think of are Arabic/Middle Eastern "Upper" part of Africa, where ALOT of Metal
is growing (Thanks I'm sure to "Acrassicauda" from the Documentary "Heavy Metal in Baghdad").
I'm looking forward to checking out the Links! Big smile
