Good Morning. I regret the inconveniences caused. I just wanted to explain, when I try to add Suspirium from El Salvador. we did not have an official launch. more now we have something digital already on the web. I would like to know if Suspirium could leave El Salvador from the blacklist? Thank you

Mods, can anyone share the info, why Ewig.Endlich. from Germany is blacklisted? I don't want to cross this thin line and resubmit, if you considered it as "not metal enough".

here I leave the link of the digital single https://suspiriumsv.bandcamp.com/album/ ... e-realidad

Too much post/post-hardcore.

OK, thx. Subject closed.

The band was blacklisted for not being metal. Even if this was metal, it isn't long enough for a digital-only release.

Sepharvites is whitelisted. Go ahead and submit.

Why was Narcose from Brazil blacklisted?

Blacklisted for being post-rock towards the end of 2016. If they have a new release, link it here.

suspirium de el salvador has a single nothing more in digital format, I already participate in a split. I ask for an answer if I can leave the blacklist?

I didn't see any reply to this. Any update? I'm kinda curious to this as well now.

It's super borderline. I'm going to say no. A good percentage of the songs that have metal in them, have too much non-metal in them. A couple songs just start being metal past hte halfway mark and end on like 30 seconds of ambient stuff.

Shame, I wanted to say yes, I liked the album but going by time - No. Just going by number of songs - No. So yup, it's a nope.

Is the split listed on the site?

HI! My band Tsjernobyl was rejected for no send a link of song. Where send or post a song from the release? Thanks!

The band isn't blacklisted, so go ahead and resubmit. Be sure to include the proof in the submission notes. Also, if you could dig up some studio samples it would really help.

You can resubmit the band but be sure to include the links to the song and release info.

Whitelisted for re-evaluation.

Hey Witcher, sorry I missed this before. The link appears to be expired, so if you're able to do another, please send it to me in PM so I can check it out.

Not sure what happened with this one. I listened in and it seems more metallic than previous, though there's still a lot of noise rock in there (obviously!). Anyways, I'll whitelist it, which will make it easier to discuss the new album. Go ahead and submit.

Well, yeah, it does have a bit more death metal influence than the previous albums (that's not saying much) but it still sounds like Relapse style punk-y grind/metallic hardcore more than anything else.

Thank you , Thestormyride, for your reply. OI think I will be able to reupload the album in two or three days. Meanwhile, I would like to point to the cause of the user , who asked, if he can resubmit the band Arsen aka König der Monster. I took quite a liking to this band and think ,k, that they awould be a worthy inclusion. the band is not blacklisted , as far I know, so in order to help him to resubmit them, here is the link to the full ep No Gods...Only Monsters again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5Jwe3lPvbA Hopefully it will not get overlooked this time.

I already took care of Arsen aka König der Monster and restored it yesterday.

I have whitelisted After Death Alone.


Regardless of whether it's metal or not, it doesn't actually seem to be blacklisted? So just submit and that's that.


If anyone else got overlooked until now, please repost.

The Ever Living, UK post-metal band, said to have been blacklisted, probably based on their debut EP? They had the debut LP out yesterday, will this material suffice to have them added?

hey guys, my project Apothecary (US) was submitted by someone else awhile ago, only for it to be blacklisted.. i understand the stuff i had at the time had a lot of ambient textures to them, but things have changed for the better of myself. i have been meaning to ask if i can just re-submit the works i have now, while disregarding my older stuff to make way for the stuff i have been currently upon.. i do entirely black metal, as well as depressive black metal with little to less ambient structure.
thanks in regards..

First few tracks sound metallic enough to warrant a reevaluation. Whitelisted. Go ahead and submit.



Do you have any links? You can either share them here or PM directly. FWIW, it was blacklisted in November 2017, so are the releases newer than that?

hey there, sure this is my most recent release.. it is available on CD through Share Your Pain Records..

i also have a two track EP released through Tenebrae Sumus Records, except only one track ever uploaded. the EP is titled 'Hiems Ventis'..
there are several splits i was apart of as well, with other depressive black metal\ black metal artists..

Hi guys,

Why was No Sun Rises deleted? If i remember correctly, it was approved by the late Emptiness Cycle right?

https://no-sun-rises.bandcamp.com/releases

Deleted for being crust punk/atmospheric rock with some post black metal influences.


Correct.

I just tried to submit my own project - Mallumejo - only to see that it is blacklisted. I feel my work meet the requirements. I have a full-length physical release, I am on a label. http://shareyourpainrecords.com/product ... trappings/ , and my music is generally classified as DSBM.
Any ideas??

The album was blacklisted in January of this year and that it was mostly acoustic stuff with harsh vocals. Is this a new release or the same one previously submitted?

Its a new release. Just released it last week.

Also, come to think of it, I am wondering if you guys were given the right band in the first place. I have never done any acoustic work. What is the city associated with the blacklisting? I am in IL. Here is my YouTube channel with all my work: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDTyqd ... gsw_7hZRwQ

Your band was indeed the one blacklisted.

So, am I still on the blacklist even with the new album?

Hi guys,

I'd like you guys to make a re-evaluation on the band that was rejected by Emptiness Cycle. Nekromant from Sweden, they play just the same style as old stuff before they changing the name. Please tell me what you think. Thanks.

An album released under the name Serpent.

Hi
I tried to add the band Swine Soul some time ago but it was labeled as non metal due to it being too much on the noise side then on the black metal side.

now they got a new release out with dissonant black metal on a tape called sorrowful improvisations. (released via Hatework Propaganda from germany)
This new material is way less noisy.
Looking forward to your answer!

Both songs of the release:

This is fine, feel free to submit.


Nope. Submit away.


Fair enough, I'll restore your submission.


Whitelisted.
