There are a few bands that I like that are ultra-heavy, but for the most part, all my favourite music is heavy rock and classic metal from the 80's.
US melodic death metallers Arsis released their debut A Celebration of Guilt through Willowtip Records last year in the US, so the album is actually not that new anymore except to us Europeans.

Early jazz influences found their first mainstream expression in the marching band and dance band music of the day, which was the standard form of popular concert music at the turn of century.

 Madagascar Protectorate (1885-1896)
The flag is a horizontal blue-white-red tri-band, with a red crescent facing the fly and shifted to the hoist in the white band.
1885 is the date of the establishment of the French Protectorate of Madagascar, but Europeans had already settled in Madagascar centuries before.
Since the Tricolor was definitively adopted as the French flag in 1830, it is highly probable that French colonists imposed a flag inspired by their national flag before the official establishment of the Protectorate.
