Just noticed that 'Animals As Leaders' has been deleted from the archives, because they are apparently not a metal band.
Well...I'm clearly not a f@nb0y of that band but seriously: what the fuck :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ?

If this song for instance isn't a metal song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmfzWpp0hMc&ob=av3e, then our world is flat.
Why not erase Cynic, Atheist and dozens of other bands because, god forbid, they occasionally use clean guitars instead of D!$T0RT3D GU!T@R$ !!!!! THAT'S NOT TRVE AT ALL! Oh, and they have some jazzy moments! Only the H0LY TRV3 D3ATH BAND OF 3VIL CHUCK R.I.P SATAN 666 CAN DO TH@T!

I don't give a damn if the mods gonna resign this band or something, but the relevance level of this site is very questionable when well known bands that experiment with their sound are being rejected.

I agree, but fuck it there'sno point in making a big deal about it. Theres plenty of other places on the internet to get good information on bands.

The rules are that a band must have at least one album which is more metal than it is anything else. It's not a case of the band being removed because they have "jazzy moments" so much as because they only have "metallic moments" amidst all the other stuff. Obviously bands like Atheist aren't going to be removed, because they have albums which are predominantly metal.

As their material is being released in quantities more than 20 home dubbed tapes, the band has been removed from the Metal-Archives.

Metal is not only:
-tremolo picked shitty black metal
-iron maiden whorship
-thrash m3tal
-d3ath m3tal with groooooowls~!~!~!

Open your ears, AAL is metal.

PhilosophicalFrog, give me one logic reason why AAL is NOT a metal band.

Not enough metal influences in their music. Same reason the Locust aren't on here. You're still an idiot for bringing up gay crap like that 20 tapes thing.

This is like the second or third thread about a certain band not being in the archives this week. Its not necessary to constantly bring this up. Go to fucking wikipedia or something if its not here. Whomever regulates what goes in and whats out does not have to include everything.

No, the ultimate substitute for saying, "Well, the guy I'm trying to argue with is an idiot and even if I do explain why he is wrong, he'll just use the overused kvlt black metal strawman, so there's no point in even bothering"

I agree that AAL should be on MA, but calm your balls buddy, there's plenty of bands on here that aren't extreme metal/Maiden worship.

Thashierthanthou is a good example of rejected high school depressed boy who have no life.
Anyway, I'm done here, mods are dumb to delete a band which has been here for long time and got reviewed a lot and probably is more metal than any lame thrash/bm bedroom project that pop to this site each day.

H666, I'm just wondering. Do you feel a band is less valid if it is not included on MA?

+ yeah that "Animals as Leaders" band who were never Metal to begin with, like wtf?

Now, did I delete one of your reviews when I nuked the band, Human666? I think I did... uh oh...

But I'm not sorry, because I know you are a smart kid and have the review nicely backed up on your hard drive. So that you can use it elsewhere if you wish. I don't think you'll be using it here, unless you want to submit it on some other band's album? The album-specific information content would be the same as on the AaL album, I think.

And even if you don't have it backed up, I'm still not sorry. For obvious reasons.

They were deleted for the fact that they have progressed beyond the boundaries of traditional metal, and threaten the very existence of tr00 metal by the fact that they are, indeed, the future of metal. I know this act was one of the last token gestures of a dying breed, and that the world will follow the dazzlingly light beacon of the AaL and its kind, and there's no point in fighting back, it's inevitable. But I had to, like the last emperors of Rome, my foolish pride does not allow me to act otherwise; anything not distributed on 66 hand-numbered crappy cassette copies by Malignant Mom's Underground Basement Distro does not count in the delusional world, and I just can't shake off the dogma, even if it means going down with the ship. All the elitist metal in the world is headed for extinction in the near future, and the future of metal is more core-influenced, funny time signatures, no distortion, and something that... well, isn't metal. Just like Korn is the saviour of metal, at least it was five years ago. I'm pretty sure that AaL and Korn will indeed together be the future of metal, and I'm just gasping for air here. Once we see the light, we'll surely hail Human666 as the most important visionary ever. To type this in the tr00 m3tulz w4y Hunam666 sh0wed uz, N4ppy l0zes!

I think it's time for me to set up the noose and down a bottle of vodka, and then make a stage exit the way old-school Finns are supposed to take. The dinosaurs are extinct, what the hell am I doing in this world of new breeds of metal, iPads and other things I obviously can't understand...?

I refer you to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QbAXXXOJF8, which was the subject of a post yeserday. The group in said clip, BABYMETAL, mixes metal with Japanese Pop music, sung by pre-teen girls. And while somewhat laughable, that is not metal. For you see, just because you mix something with metal doesn't mean it's metal. Much as AAL is not truely metal, even though they did use some metal along with their "jazzy moments".

But the above arguments about the jazz factor/experimentation are moot. Because everyone knows you can't worship Satan with a trumpet. Which is the entire point of metal.

Ah, not to pick a fight or offend you or anything, but you more or less ruined any argument you could of had with the "H0LY TRV3 D3ATH BAND OF 3VIL CHUCK R.I.P SATAN 666 CAN DO TH@T!", "THAT'S NOT TRVE AT ALL!" bullshit.

AAL sucks and is not metal. Fuck off.

EDIT They are also nothing like Cynic or Atheist. So fuck off. Again.

I want to know why them being considered not metal by the archives really matters? Do you live your life by Metal-Archives?

I think the decision is dumb. Why? Because their first album is predominately metal with obvious progressive influences in it, but that's why there's a sub-genre called progressive metal. I mean if you remove AAL, you might as well start hacking away any other band with too much progressive influence in it. I have not heard their second album, so maybe you could argue that one.

However, I have heard and listened the first one many times and it's definitely progressive metal. Obviously, it's not a big deal, but it does hurt MA's credibility a bit.

I admittedly probably haven't listened to enough of the band's material to make a rational decision, but the two songs I've heard by AAL were deathcore chugging mixed with prog/post-rock riffs.

Could have said it better myself bud.

Ehhhh also I hate this whole "IF YOU REMOVE X YOU HAVE TO REMOVE Y AND Z" argument. It doesn't follow. If there was a band that sounded exactly like a band that got removed, it'd be a different story, but just because some bands sound similar to others that aren't on here, doesn't mean they should be deleted/others should be added. Raspberry Bulbs borrows heavily from 90s hardcore, but is black enough in its own right, and it definitely doesn't mean hardcore should be on here.

So there's NO other band in the archives that has a huge amount of progressive influences in their music similar to AAL? It's a perfectly fine argument in this case; tons of metal bands are progressive in nature, some more than others, but I am very sure that at least 1 of those progressive metal bands on the archives has about the same amount of influences as AAL.

MA isn't really changing. In fact, I'd say it's become MORE accepting than it used to be, maybe it's just me. Either way, why must people take a band's omission as such a slight? It seems like they take is as a personal insult. A band being or not being listed on this sight is of absolutely no consequence to anyone. And if it is, they're priorities probably need to be re-examined.

Don't bitch about it then, help the database by reporting those bands so they can be deleted.

Well...I'm clearly not a f@nb0y of that band but seriously: what the fuck :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ?

If this song for instance isn't a metal song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmfzWpp0hMc&ob=av3e, then our world is flat.
Why not erase Cynic, Atheist and dozens of other bands because, god forbid, they occasionally use clean guitars instead of D!$T0RT3D GU!T@R$ !!!!! THAT'S NOT TRVE AT ALL! Oh, and they have some jazzy moments! Only the H0LY TRV3 D3ATH BAND OF 3VIL CHUCK R.I.P SATAN 666 CAN DO TH@T!

I don't give a damn if the mods gonna resign this band or something, but the relevance level of this site is very questionable when well known bands that experiment with their sound are being rejected.



This shit isnt metal - simple as that. Im sure you can find people to chat with about this kind of music at Starbucks or something.

I think Deep Purple is a case where their early influence on metal as a whole is significant. They definitely have several songs which are straight-up Priest-influencing speed metal, and their more rock-ish songs are still on the heavier side of their time.

Well its no big deal if a band is not on the site, but its a bit strange that a band is accepted and then deleted later because its not metal.

Surprised the band lasted as long as they did. They must have been accepted when the site had different standards. I'm not sad to see them go; they mean nothing to me.

It's not strange at all. There have been plenty of instances of it happening in the past. Does that mean all of a sudden your choice in listening makes you less of a metalhead? No.

It's a matter that no one should give a fuck about. It's not like when a band is deleted that you should go and sell/trash/delete/burn all that band's material in your collection. It being listed on a website shouldn't bother you in the least.
