Even if it seems reasonable, it isn't very wise to change those credits based on a conjecture, no matter how informed it is. I think "Everything" would work better here, and would leave no room for doubt. Or am I overthinking this?


We will have to look into this material anyway if we are to validate the claim about the VST plugin being used on material predating its creation, so I am not suggesting accepting the change with no further questions. Open for opposing views, but it just seemed a bit anal to revert a change based on informed guessing on an "open case".

if you put it like that, yeah, that's a tad thin, but it's not always about numbers alone and in Zodijackyl's words from the moderator notes: "The intro and outro aren't metal, and track 4 is a ballad, but this does seem to be predominantly metal."

"I'm sorry", but I don't see how a 5-track EP, with an intro that has no guitars whatsoever, a Disney song and a ballad can be a "predominantly metal" release. it sounds like a bad joke. at best.

HateDotCom probably deserves a review. At least the genre should be changed because this is not death/thrash or even close to it.

This is WAY more on the Discharge side (not their metallic output, either) than Hellhammer.

Hello from the gutter!
I'm going to copy & paste my report, since Diamhea sent me here. It's about the chilean band Kingdom of Hate, which I think does not belong here for a 'without-own-material' issue.

StarshipTrooper wrote:
After reading the rules again, I think this band should be removed. Why?

Kingdom of Hate was a band formed by some former Necrosis members, long after leaving the band due to internal issues. In fact, the band is named after a classic song of Necrosis. Although they pretended to be a genuine band with own material, their first and only release consisted in the re-recording of the entire Necrosis's 'The Search' (1988), plus ONE, yes, just one original tune (T-34); basically an album of covers plus one own track.

After that, they wrote a couple of songs and played them live (I remember hearing 'Chemtrails' in 2011), and had plans for a new album, but for some reason all went downhill and Kingdom of Hate finally split-up without any other release.

Therefore, they never released any original material except for one song out of eight in an (practically) cover album, and acording to the rules, cover bands are not allowed in the site.

That's my vision according with my comprehension of the site's rules. Maybe I'm missing something, but I hope you, at least, consider this as an honest comment and not an 'edgy no-sense' like a lot of reports in this category.

Also, I'm sorry if my english is a bit erratic. It's not my first language, but I'm doing my best!

I think a few things are important that would probably warrant the inclusion of Kingdom of Hate: The one new song, making it a different release, the fact that they re-recorded it, and wasn't Nata the guy who helped compose most of "The Search"?

So you're the one.

Forgotten Land does have plenty of black metal tracks.

One for example; https://forgottenland.bandcamp.com/trac ... -of-a-gale

I know it was deleted a while ago, but can it be restored? I am finishing up an album currently that has quite a bit of black metal on it.

Having a bunch of Black Metal tracks scattered through a predominantly ambient discography is not enough to be added. When/if Forgotten Land releases a decidedly, unambiguously Metal album, it will/could be acceptable.

Some LLN projects are metal on their own terms, others are selected exceptions on the basis that the LLN bands as a whole formed a very integral part of the metal scene and it would be seen as glaringly lacking to exclude Aäkon Këëtrëh and Moëvöt but include Belkètre. Their situation is very exceptional and they shouldn't be used as an example to justify the addition of average everyday bands.

The LLN as a whole is considered a selected exception because of its scene affiliation, listenership and member connections. And for that reason, we have listed all of its various projects, regardless if Metal or not.

Understandable, but at the same time you are deeming bands acceptable by simply being affiliated with the genre. Forgotten Land on the other hand actually has multiple black metal tracks - As well as being on a label with various other full time black metal bands, using black metal imagery and themes throughout their music and artwork...

Sure, it isn't the Black Metal of days past - but it is black metal. When Varg and others began putting out exclusively ambient works it changed the landscape of BM forever, and frankly I think Black Ambient (not Dark Ambient - because I think we can all see the distinction) is in it's own right a staple of the genre.

I would say if anything Forgotten Land is as black metal as say, Vinterriket, just not as prolific.


Can we just accept that there is a form of Ambient music that files under Metal, apart from Dark Ambient and be done with it?

MutantClannfear is not a moderator. His answer, while helpful and correct, should not be considered an official response from the staff. However, he really nailed it with this:

Their situation is very exceptional and they shouldn't be used as an example to justify the addition of average everyday bands.

Adding to that, here's my answer which you seemed to ignore:
OpsiusCato wrote:

So, yes, the non-Metal part of the LLN is a selected exception we keep both for its deep scene affiliation and for the sake of completeness. To further explain, here's this:
Da Rules wrote:
We accept the following non-metal bands in certain cases (these exceptions can be ambiguous and debatable - scroll down for details):
Side-projects of notable metal band members (ex. Pain, Wongraven, Die Verbannten Kinder Evas). We prefer side-projects to be on a label with worldwide distribution and have a full-length release, but do not require it (this is to avoid a flood of bedroom/MySpace bands).
Non-metal projects included arbitrarily as they are seen by the staff to belong as a part of the metal scene. Their inclusion is rare, exceptional, and discretionary of the staff.
Bands that are no longer metal, but are/were still generally recognized as metal bands at some point (ex: Ulver, Katatonia, Def Leppard)

As I had already told you:
OpsiusCato wrote:

avisioncame wrote:

We do not judge bands based on which labels they are signed to, nor who are their labelmates and what those labelmates play.
avisioncame wrote:

We do not judge bands based on imagery, themes, artwork, lyrics, inverted crosses, sixsixsixes, or any kind of aesthetic factor.
avisioncame wrote:

You're forgetting they had already released unambiguously Metal albums by the time they went ambient. Those unambiguously Metal albums are they reason they are listed here.
avisioncame wrote:

Black Ambient? Seriosuly? This is the first time I ever even see that term used. Dark Ambient is Dark Ambient. That's it's name. There's no distinction. Hell, not even Basarabian Hills tried to use that "Black Ambient" card with us.
And "a staple of the genre"? Of what genre? Metal? No! The fact that Dark Ambient is used on a semi-regular basis as a resource in Black Metal doesn't automatically make it a "staple of the genre". That's like saying that Jesus Christ is a "staple of the religion" when talking about Islam just because they do consider him a prophet in their canon.
avisioncame wrote:

I'm pretty sure Vinterriket has at least one predominantly Metal album, which warrants their inclusion.
avisioncame wrote:

No, not really. Ambient music files under Ambient music. Metal files under Metal. That arguement is like saying that there are certain kind of birds that file under fish just because they swim.

Having listened to it now, I'm going to have to agree with Zodi on this. I was honestly expecting it to be more borderline, but it sounds like symphonic metal if you don't count the intro and outro. Not a paragon of an acceptable release, but I'm fine with it. And at least there's a CD as well.

Deleted Auxxxxxcult and Ebola Zaire. Insufficient samples to determine whether there is a metal release.

EDIT: EZ has been restored after some additional evidence.

Psychofagist is accepted, why?
Just because they made few brutal death metal songs (demo) before switching to mathcore?
(Not to be misunderstood, I like mathcore.)

This example leads us to some general questions:
What if i made 3 metal songs demo (longer than 20min) and 8 other pop albums after that?
Will they be listed in archives just because of these 3 metal songs?

One acceptable metal release is all the we require. We're not going to delete a band because they change.

While Erosion is generally correct, an extreme example such as yours, Curdnoredje, would warrant reexamination of the band. You touch upon a recurrent and valid issue with your post, please see this for a more in-depth explanation. An addendum to that old post is that I have noticed that we have become somewhat more cautious with short/dodgy releases of borderline genres and often reject something, telling people to wait for a more consistent discography. But of course that doesn't mean that we reject a perfectly metal demo just because there's a possibility of the band switching to punk rock later.

If Psychofagist only have a short metal demo (the format of which isn't even known?) and then completely changed to non-metal, that would also be grounds for looking into.

Just updated this band's page:
https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Krull/3540428616

But it seems that there's no valid release. The EP that's listed was released under their previous name:
https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Et ... 3540385451
There's a bonus track. Less than a minute long, though.

Hi guys, sometimes I come back from the dead eheheh :). While I often agree with your decisions, this time I think you did a mistake, Azmodes. In the urge to purge the non metalness from the archive, it happens that some valid bands are caught in the mechanism like in this case: that is Psychofagist. While undoubtely they started to play a kind of mathcore/jazzcore, that process was not sudden, but it was a slow evolution throughout their discography. Their first demo is not their only valid release, but also the split with Hybrid Viscery contains valid Death/Grind songs, and even their first full-length has clearly metal influences. After that their evolution was complete, and the next releases are definitively mathcore/jazzcore. But 2 releases are enough to be listed here I think.

Well, I listened to almost everything from their discography (including the first full-length) and apart from the one song from their demo that I found (I still haven't found any information about how it was released, by the way) it was all mathcore. I doubt a borderline split I overlooked will make a difference.
