Hi,
Why is it blacklisted? It's just raw black metal and dungeon synth

Blacklisted in May for being dungeon synth. Checked the latest album and from it, one song is black metal, two songs are half black metal half dungeon synth, and the rest is 100% dungeon synth. So not even close to being predominantly metal.
Blacklist stays.

Hm, but why bands like Mortiis are on MA ? It's mainly Dungeon S.

Here is a detailed explanation from the site's rules: "We have previously accepted some non-metal bands as selected exceptions. Those were mostly side-projects of notable metal band members (ex. Mortiis, Wongraven, Die Verbannten Kinder Evas) and some non-metal bands (ex. Rush, Arditi, Stille Volk) included arbitrarily as they have been seen by the staff to be historically relevant to the metal scene. We are no longer including any more non-metal exceptions. Do not ask."
So yeah, Mortiis isn't really a criterion for acceptability on this site.

Hi,

Band blacklisted cause "too much dungeon synth" releases despite raw black metal songs.
New material here, true raw black metal : https://barbatosvm.bandcamp.com/album/temps-sombre

Asking for a whitelisting
Regards

Topics merged. Please use the search function next time.

The two track demo while it is metal won't be enough to accept them since their more substantial releases are predominantly dungeon synth. So to validate this one we would need either a longer metal EP/demo or a full-length.
