Where does the name Tetsui come from?

This version of the band's name is written in Japanese only: 鐵槌
The transliteration is Tettsui with double T.

https://www.discogs.com/artist/1569553-Sledge-Hammer-2

It's not clear what needs to be done here. Which band has been approved: 鐵槌/Sledgehammer or simply 鐵槌? Both names are used side by side on some releases.
E.g. https://www.discogs.com/release/2185525-Samurai-Thunder/images

There's actually more than one release under the name 鐵槌:
- https://www.discogs.com/%E9%90%B5%E6%A7%8C-%E6%97%A5%E6%9C%AC%E7%8B%BC/master/398848
- https://www.discogs.com/%E9%90%B5%E6%A7%8C-%E6%AB%BB%E8%8A%B1-%E9%99%B0%E7%8D%A3-%E5%A9%86%E5%A8%91%E7%BE%85/master/742228
- https://www.discogs.com/%E9%90%B5%E6%A7%8C-%E6%A1%9C%E8%8A%B1-Sledge-Hammer-Ouka/master/398849 (right side: top to bottom)

If the Sledgehammer releases aren't to be added I suggest locking the discography, because the two bands seem one and the same.

Az, one little thing... 鐵槌 is blacklisted, but the country says United States. Dunno if it's the same band.

I've asked the mod who blacklisted them to have a listen (me and yet another mod thought it was fine, though). Let's wait before updating the page any further.

Azmodes [mod] - Mar 29th, 06:25 (2020)

The album is acceptable, entry stays. As for the scope, it would seem that the Japenese name and translation/literation was sometimes used interchangeably, even before the "name change". May be best to keep it all on one page, metal or not.

Yeah, this is metal. I must've blacklisted it based on a submission with another album.

The scope of the discography should be the entire scope of the Japanese name of the band, which includes both anglicizations of it (Sledgehammer/Tettsui)

Looks like Voice_Of_Steel has taken care of it already. Great!

I see the alternate spellings have been added, too.

Looks good. Thank you. :) I'd close this but I can't; it's assigned to Zodi.
