This band was rejected because they had no album out, but now it does, you can find it here https://youtu.be/RA_1Gch2TLo

It's a prog metal band from Spain

It was blacklisted based on that album for being borderline prog rock.

That is not a solid argument and you're being offensive for no reason.

Offensive? I really have no idea what part of my response contains any negative connotations, or even offensive. We have a blacklist system for bands that are assessed to be not predominantly metal. This band is on the blacklist since it was assessed to be more on the rock side of things. Hope this message clears things up.

I want to apologize, in my country being called "borderline" is offensive. But I don't understand how you can classify this band as rock. Have you listened to the whole album? Can you explain more why you call this borderline prog rock? What are the aspects that classify you as a metal band?

I've asked other staff to chime in. Let's hope someone would be interested in looking into this.

It just ain't based in metal riffs. There are metal moments there but they are not predominant in any way. It all sounds fairly inconsistent, so overall this is a bit more in prog rock territory than in metal one and there is nothing offensive about being that. Feel free to bring them up again once they have a new album.
