I remembered that this was discussed lately, but I could not remember where... I delete it and contact the band; it was added by one of the band members.

I have tried to fix Pomaranča, but without much success. The site always deforms it few minutes later. The same for band names in Russian and other Slavonic languages.

The háček (caron) seems to make problems to the system.

Have you tried it with Internet Explorer?

I've seen another few of these mistakes, with 'easier' letters like é and â too. It happened to me when I tried to add a link to Motörhead on a page, and it deformed all names with such letters in the line-up, but when I tried the same thing in Internet Explorer, it worked perfectly. IE doesn't have any problems with these letters.

I have tried it now, thanks, but still I am not sure of the results, it looks similar.

When I edited a few details of the band, I added Pomaranca without the special sign to it's additional names, that way the search function can at least locate their profile.

Edit: Just noticed that the bandname I Copy pasted to their additional notes was changed to Pomaranéa too.

Is this acceptable or is there too much alternative/hard rock influence (I think there is...but it's worth questioning, I guess).

It depends, how many songs like Enable are on the album, that is pure alternative rock, inspired by Tool and Godsmack. Even if the other songs have some Tool influence too, they have enough of the bands listed as influences - Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera, Dream Theater, Black Label Society. If they were in majority on the album and there were only two or three of those alternative tracks, then it would be acceptable.

I just wanted to Add ATOMIC OPERA,but website said that this band was previously rejected.Have no clue WHY ??? Its pure HEAVY METAL.They released just one Demo in 1985. Listen to this Demo Fucking Heavy Metal!!!! http://bangbangblog.info/tag/demo-archive/

check your PM please

To explain it to all, there were two Atomic Operas. One from Texas - a softer and more hard rock oriented version of King's X, and this old heavy/power band from Florida. The Floridian band can of course be submitted, I weill explain the rest per PM, if christkiller has not done it yet.

But I Still can't Add ATOMIC OPERA... Can someone Fix it? Because when I submit All info it automaticly get rejected with link to Forum...

Now resubmit, it should go.

Thanks.Everything worked Fine.

Would this be Metal enough for inclusion, or is it too much on the Hardcore side?

It's still lacking the tracks of the second (screaming) vocalist.

Acceptable? They have 2 demos out.

To everybody, stop adding this band - Valscharuhn, they were posted in the donload thread and obviously have no physical releases, now someone is keen on getting them here. Can't you people respect a few simple rules about releases?!!

Yes, some kind of death tinged groove metal.

in "Statistics" is "Top 10 - Members - Submitted bands"
can you post here Top 100 ? or Top 50?
I saw Top 50 in "Written reviews" ...
(Top 50 Reviewers - http://www.metal-archives.com/board/vie ... 52&start=0)

Ok, no reaction. Thanks then.

I do not see any problems there, old Voivod had similar punk influences and this is overall metal enough, not borderline or anything.

I'd like to add in the 'topic section' Christianity. They are on a Christian label and are classified there as White Metal. Enough evidence?

Most members come from non-christian bands and the new singer Mark Phantom from the band Teutonic, which was anything but christian.

Do you know their lyrics or is there a statement on their homepage?

If not, I would be very careful - compare the situation with Eluveitie and their statement on the homepage.

No... to their old bandpage is only possible to gat access via Archive.org and the lyrics have not been archived.

To all, stop adding "the band is working on their upcoming release" to the additional notes. It is totally pointless and stupid. When it comes out, it can be added normally. For the last time the pages here are not the bands' blogs.

When some you veterans see that, please, delete it without hesitation.

The same for upcoming releases in the next year or similar.

Deleting this from the Ulver page, it's the same kind of shit...

Ulver are throwing a release party for the upcoming album at the Europa Night Club in Brooklyn, New York City on September 20, 2007. Tickets

Too dissonant, correct?

yep, not metal

Had that feeling.

This is as good a place as any, Calignosity the members of Underground Treehouse were not in the bands Reign of Terror or Black Stone Ritual as you linked. So please don't change this back, and yes the data was confirmed by the band directly. John White and Shawn Miller are not the same individuals that play in said other bands.

Thanks

How are these?

The first projet is instrumental rock/hard rock like Vai or Satriani.

The sample songs for the second band (2, 3) sound mostly like the groove metal based, acceptable metalcore.

Tricks of memory, on the other hand, sounds like Creed. The new song sounds like a mix of Gotheburg and Metallica, so maybe you could wait for their new album.

But the second is acceptable?

I would hesitate to accept them since it seems, that the 2006 album is not consequently metal.

If they have a new release in the style of the first song, then yes.

Report on Nuclear Blast Allstars:

Peter Wichers (ex-Soilwork) wrote the entire second one.

Could some of the veterans, who have bought the second CD, add the complete correct line-up for the second CD? I have only the first one personally.

Line -up section should then feature:

CD "Into the Light" line-up

CD" Out of The Dark" line-up

Thanks a lot.

And Morphia from Holland, also on Fear Dark. I used to know a few of the band members, they are not Christian, there lyrics are also not Christian. That they are on Fear Dark does not mean they are Christian, same situation as Eluveitie. I reported Morphia a long time ago, but "Christianity" is still in the Lyrical themes field.

Yes, they have the typical gothic/doom lyrics about sorrow, despair, personal feelings and lost love. Now feel free to add the correct topics.

The number of bands, which were submitted and which are already listed here was terribly high today - again.

Always validate, if a band is not listed here, especially when their latest release more than three years ago.

If you are not sure about the spelling, always go DIRECTLY TO THE COUNTRY OVERVIEW PAGE.

Thanks for attention.

A question:

I have received a lot of demos today and one of them is a Promo tape of the band Blazing Eternity. I have number 11, but I do not know how much of them were distributed. There is a label which was used to distribute them: Darkmere from Germany. There are two tracks on it: one from the first, one from the second demo.

How are promos handled here... should this be added? From what I can guess it is an official one, but it is not mentioned on their myspace site.



edit: The demo was distributed by Darkmere respectively Thor Wanzek. He is/ was(?) a writer for the German Legacy Magazine, so I think therefore it is a legitimate one.

Promos distributed by a band's label are not acceptable.

One more thing, "NWOBHMů as a tag is reserved for U.K. bands only, for obvious resons. The bands inspired by the sound are labelled as Traditional Heavy Metal or just Heavy Metal here.
