G-noma sound nothing like a nu-metal band maybe metalcore but not nu-metal


Nearly three months later, and my position has not changed. Remember that metalcore is oftentimes dubious to begin with as far as acceptability is concerned. Split it however you wish, but the bottom line is that metal is not a predominant cog in the mechanism of their sound.

Vixenta was blacklisted for being not metal over a year ago now, and we have a new release with a different direction and I'd like to re-submit if possible.

The new material is here:

Hi!
I tried to re-submit a band Defying but I received the information that it is blacklisted.
Last time when I tried to add the band in 2013, before the release of the debut album, it has been rejected due to the fact that the music has not been classified as a metal. Of course I respect that decision.
Now the band released a full-lenght album in physical form, always described by many reviewers as progressive/post metal with doom/death influences.
I would like to re-submit the band and I kindly ask you for making it possible.
Regards

Other reviewers can call the music whatever they want. We don't base the genre tags here on other people's interpretations of the music. This is what makes MA unique, the moderation decides on every band individually.

That said, this probably means the blacklisting will stand. If there is a big difference in sound on this new album, perchance include some sound samples so we can reassess. Otherwise, simply coming in here citing third party opinions is never going to work.

Good day to you all.

I just wanted to add a Russian Prog/Folk-Metal band called "Оргия Праведников" (Orgy of Saints) but it's blacklisted without a reason being clear to me.
It has five albums out already, and it's definitely metal enough.
Evidence:
Spoiler: show


Hope for it being "unblacklisted" soon enough.
The band does have some "unmetal" songs, but it's still metal and I hope you'll realize it too. :)

It is blacklisted for being more prog rock than metal.

Well, that's a pity. Guess you're right... I'll have to live with that.

I'm wondering though why bands like Deep Purple or Rush have their own page here... nevermind.
Sorry for bothering.

Ok, I'm sorry. I forgot to include a link to the music. Here it is: https://defying.bandcamp.com/track/portraits . Last time it was before releasing first full-lenght album, and now the style of the band is different, so we ask you to reassessment. Thank you in advance!

No, you're right. It's rather Prog Rock with a lot of Metal elements than the other way.

I'm inquiring as to why Oathbreaker (Belgium) is blacklisted. I couldn't find a thread about it in a search. They are pretty posty, and hardcore, but still very metal. I did a search and if god damn Pelican is metal then this band sure is. They are on the same label as Deafheaven too, which surprised me by being on here. Perhaps the first album was too hardcore influenced?

A link to their latest video.

Oathbreaker is hardcore based, albeit metallic in some aspects. It's closer to Converge than to any metal band. And a piece of advice, "band x is here, band y should too" arguments don't work in this place. ;)

Come on, Deathwish Inc. is a hardcore label, how is that a good argument? We might as well add Nickelback since they're on the same label as Gojira and Dream Theater! I looove Oathbreaker but they're clearly not a metal band and how is Deafheaven being on MA surprising? They're post black metal.

I guess I just want really good metallic hardcore bands separated from the terrible ones, but until Converge is on here Oathbreaker wont be either. Oh well.. they are still good as fuck. Deafheaven is too shoegazy, needs more grit and depravity. Post is a genre I have issues with. That's a whole other thread though. No Oathbreaker.

Hi. I was trying to upload this band Lyria here, but the moderator that had to evaluale it decided that this is not a metal band.
I was wondering if you could listen to the entire album to decide, I'm pretty sure that this is metal band. Thank you so much!

Hello folks.
I was quite amazed when this band submission was rejected with the reason "not a metal band":
http://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Mel ... 3540385735
Dear Azmodes, are you sure you've mentioned just this band when you pressed a "reject" button?
I consider it could be even gothic doom/DEATH band if they've had a growling guy on vocals....

Just accept the decision, maybe make your case again if and when the band releases heavier material in the future. It wasn't a mistake.

heavier?!
hm.
ok, but I'm really shocked.
moderators accept shitty metalcore, ambient and post-rock bands instead of this one.
maybe we have different points of view on what's metal at all.

Indeed we do, and you have to adhere to our guidelines to be presented on our site. Whether you agree or not is another thing. Sorry dude.

The band I submitted, Tranquilizer, was rejected:

""So we have one punk EP and one metal/punk single? That's not enough, sorry. It's a punk band with a borderline single release.""

I think their second release qualifies as metal, and I think it's nitpicking to say "not enough" simply because it's a single.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jk2c0q89dsk

it's definitely punk influenced, but you can't tell me that it isn't also heavy metal/speed metal.

Shadechaser: Admittedly, I didn't listen to the band myself when I rejected them. I went with the word of two other moderators who found the band unacceptable. This is not how I usually prefer dealing with stuff, but I was browsing through the queue and the band had been sitting there for quite a while so I trusted their judgement. Two mods saying no is already more than enough to take action.

I checked "Forest of Insomnia" on VKontakte. This is indeed pretty... slim. It's all programmed, it seems, which wouldn't be an automatic rejection, but it sure contributes to the overall impression of the sound. I dunno, this is very sparse and inconsistent, metal-wise. Droning guitars and sad leads and keys. Some of it can be recognised as dirgy doom, yeah, but the whole thing just really rides the line and a good chunk is just clean keys with guitars in the background. I can't say I'm really feeling strongly enough about it to overrule the rejection. Is the other full-length considerably different? If not, then I'd have to say no.

It'd would have to be a full-length, really. Or at the very least an EP or a demo. But a metal single is not enough if the band has a non-metal full-length.

Hey there!
In the past, there were some problems concerning the band "Tempers Creature" from Germany. When this band was added, the genre was put to "Ambient" because the admin who checked the band listened just to an ambient track (Perhaps an Intro or Outro). When the founder of the band wanted it to be changed, the band was suddenly put on the black list for unknown reasons. I would like you to change that, so I can add it with the right information. Here is a song that prooves that it's not Ambient but Pagan Black Metal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbmbqyxV6t0 and here you can see that the band already released some stuff: http://sturmglanz.de/shop/catalog/produ ... cts_id=878

Thank you and greetings from Germany :)

Feuerschwanz is blacklisted because folk rock.
But there's a new album which sounds metal to me (or also mix of rock like Nachtgeschrei)
Already released. See the description.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qaVg1Ifls0
What do you think? Is it still rock?

anti-thanks to Diamhea, by the way.

Judging by the samples here, I would say 4-5 of those songs definitely seem to have metal riffs. A lot of them really don't, though. Considering the fact that the band is already blacklisted, ehh. Anyone else want to comment on this?

Hello

Last night I attempted to submit my band Marsh Dweller. It was rejected because the demo is only streaming on band camp. Am I understanding correctly that if it is made available for download/purchase then the band will be accepted?

For reference here is the demo, which was deemed metal enough and long enough.

http://marshdweller.bandcamp.com

Thanks

Black Crown Initiate has a new album coming out on Tuesday and I've heard it.

It is absolutely a progressive/technical death metal album. Mix of Gojira, Opeth, Leprous (mainly the vocals). Don't hear anything that would really disqualify them.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qv2k7YyWeL0

I'll provide links but only through PM to a moderator if they agree that the song I posted is metal enough.

I'm downloading the album, I'll give my thoughts later. I had to defend our POV several times already, hopefully it will be undeniably metal this time around.

EDIT: the band will be added next week, the djent influences are almost entirely gone.

Feuerschwanz are one of those terrible, terrible Mittelalter-Rock bands, and from what I've read they manage to be particularly loathsome even for that style. I saw them live at a festival once, but I was distracted, talking to friends and rather inebriated, so I didn't really pay attention to what they sounded like. The point of this little anecdote? Non-existent, really. I'll have a look at that new album.

That Black Crown Initiate album sounds 100% acceptable. Once it is out, bring 'em on in.

Thank you and greetings from Germany :)

To provide some context: The band's entire output at the time (2012/2013) had been checked by the mod(s), to my knowledge. Not just a single track. The band was blacklisted because it wasn't considered predominantly metal by the site. At some point after that, the album "Lupus Est Homo Homini" happened, but instead of posting about it in this thread, the band was submitted (before the actual release date too) with a different country, evading the blacklist. I told the submitter not to do that and post in this thread once the album was out, but this was ignored and the band was simply resubmitted without any changes. Therefore the submitting user was banned. After a time, another account, possibly the same person, evaded the blacklist again instead of posting here. Same outcome.

Looks like we have finally made some progress. Of the two tracks from the album on that label, one is mostly metal, one is ambient. Is there a way to check the entire album?

Good Morning:

Please request verification of the missing information to complete the registration ThunderThrone band in the encyclopedia.


Sincerely attached link of the song En El Trono Negro Throne metalness to indicate what is missing the first record that caused the rejection http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5JricEiPOE

I'm downloading the album, I'll give my thoughts later. I had to defend our POV several times already, hopefully it will be undeniably metal this time around.

EDIT: the band will be added next week, the djent influences are almost entirely gone.

That Black Crown Initiate album sounds 100% acceptable. Once it is out, bring 'em on in.


Awesome!

I'd love to have the honors, I have a draft saved. Probably submit after midnight on Monday night.

Una banda requiere tener un lanzamiento válido para poder ser aceptada en la página - un lanzamiento válido puede ser:
• Distribuido de forma física (CD, CDr, DVD, tape, vinyl, etc)
• Digital y disponible para descarga completa. También debe ser una mezcla final/terminada/definitiva (no ensayos, versiones de prueba, o "rough mixes"), y tiene que ser suficientemente largo (de preferencia por encima de los 20 minutos)
• Ya disponible. Lo que quiere decir, "no lanzamientos próximos!"

Para comprobar lo anterior, debes incluir alguno de los siguientes:
• LANZAMIENTOS FÍSICOS: Incluir evidencia fotográfica. Opcionalmente, si no tienes acceso a ninguna de las copias, puedes incluir links a sitios como BigCartel o la página de la compañia que los tiene a la venta, o donde se haya anunciado oficialmente que están disponibles para ordenarse.
• LANZAMIENTOS DIGITALES: Incluir links a sitios como Bandcamp, iTunes, Amazon, etc, donde el lanzamiento pueda ser comprado o descargado.
