Can understand if the project is a little misleading, but most of Synthosaurus' releases such as Metalosauric Crush, the collaboration Octo / SauruS and Prehistoric Gods are pure Metal, and the artist is in the process of developing this.
Prehistoric Gods is a tribute to Bathory's 'Nordland' as well, with lots of melodic, energetic and fastpaced Metal.

It seems that the moderators did not really listen to the albums and only based their decision on his very first releases.

....What?

"Prehistoric Gods" does have some riffs, yes. But even that one is mostly Dungeon Synth, the rest is pure dungeon synth.
I also fail to hear the "fastpaced" stuff. Pretty ambienty synth, slowly moving forwards.
It's not bad, but nothing he released is even close to being predominantly metal. There's only the few Bathory-isms he added to "Prehistoric Gods"

I did. Multiple times.
There are guitars to add a "fuzzy" backing track here and there, but nothing that makes this predominantly metal. Not even close, actually.

Still a no. This is the Metal Archives, not the Metal-Inspired Archives. We need an album that is definitely metal.
