I think their album 15 Years of Pride should be metal enough anyway though. It's probably not being taken into account in that comment, because the band was added earlier.

I did not include the newer album , because I coundn't find a working download for them, but judging form the song samples at Youtube, it seems to mme, that ttheir laters album is mainly hard rac with some heavy metal/hard rock influences and again not predominantly thrash metal or metal:

Pretty redundant entry and could be merged with Ritual. Same line-up, no listed releases, no change in style/location/etc., minor name change.

Speaking of Ritual, is there a reason why Farley's Ritual is separate from Ritual? The music from that demo would later be included on both The Gathering and later The Ancient Tome which suggests to me that Farley's Ritual is effectively Ritual. Perhaps a merge should be in order?

Deleted Borderline from Peru. Their sole EP consisted of plagiarized music from Cuckoo's Nest - Dark Shades of Lunacy.

I believe this was a bit rushed because you can buy the CD and get full streaming and download, from what I can see. Unless that doesn't count as releasing, of course.

CD doesn't ship out until September 25th, so it's essentially a pre-order. And pricing your digital release at 666 euros doesn't count as a valid digital release as no one would actually pay that price for an album. Therefore the band currently has no valid release and shouldn't be on here at this time.

A previous submission of this band was rejected on these same grounds as well.

I don't know, but one could read it as "you can get the album digitally now if you buy the CD", which would be essentially a release I think. It's a matter of interpretation I guess, but since MA is more conservative on these cases, then I guess makes sense to wait until the official release. Another case for the Bandcamp rules thread?

This is basically just the band falling down a flight of stairs with their instruments, as metal as Anal Cunt. Didn't find it available on the net but I can share it on slsk if Azmodes wants to check.

Even the additional notes say:
Quote:
"Goat Vulva isn't a satanic group, but an XXX rated porno speed noise today." (Nuclear Holocausto Vengeance)


(I think it was accepted under the side-project rule that preceded the previous side-project rule where normal users could still submit side-projects.)

It might count if that were the case, but we'd have to see proof that the tracks were downloadable if it were submitted again now, anyway.

The 2020 album seems to be just a compilation of their old demos. The band was added by Christkiller, who was a moderator at that time, so I think at least he considered the band to be black metal enough.
I have listened to the compilation of their demos and personally think, that the band could be accptable at least based on theirfirst two demos. The production is trerrible,and so are the "vocals" , but the songs seem to have a clear strcture and the riffing, however minimalist it may be, is also in bm style. It is not pure black noise like Die schwarzen Priester fr example. The demo compilation:

Infectious Grooves(USA) :
It was accepted as a side project, but since the music is very far from real metal (the band's official biogrphy even calls it "heavy funk rock") and since the band's impact on the general metal scene is doubtful, I don't see many reason, why this should stay. It is well known among Suicidal Tendencies fans, but the acceptance among "normal" metalheads may vary and as the side projects of Cynic musicians, which were progressive rock, were also deleted, I see it as a similar case.

Gogmagog (UK):
First song is really NWOBHM inspired, but tthe two other songs on the ep are pure hard rock, so it's not predominantly metal.

So the link between the two bands in the "years active" field should be removed because it is misleading.

Saracen (Aus)- Predominantly slightly bluesy hard rock with some prog influences, not heavy metal. The only heavy metal song on the album is "Skyline .
The Saracen debut album was actually also released as the second album by the band Trilogy for some strange reason:

I'm going to presume that the Trilogy album was acceptable, although I haven't listened to it. This might be a comparable situation to Incubus and Opprobrium. After the Louisiana based band Incubus renamed themselves Opprobrium to avoid confusion with the more recognized alternative rock band Incubus (from California), they recorded new material under the Opprobrium name, and then re-released both Incubus albums under the Opprobrium name (likely to prevent fans of the alternative rock band Incubus from buying it, thinking it was by them). The albums are listed under both monikers here.
