May be this is a stupid question. How to use HTML?

OK, thanks, will do. Now I'm dealing with bandcamp links.

I don't want to forestall the mods but imho bandcamp links that are present in the additional notes of individual releases should be removed for the sake of simplicity. It should be sufficient if a band's main bandcamp site is linked in the "Related Links" section. Someone seconds that?

it can now be applied correctly as the format.

so Metal Archives in earlier times cannot apply format album?

Yes, but I put "Bandcamp" in the version description to clarify the source of the "digital" version, as it could come from many sources.

I would say that nine out of ten of these are just users dumping URLs in a promotional/spamming manner, or due to general ignorance.

It should be sufficient if a band's main bandcamp site is linked in the "Related Links" section. Someone seconds that?

It would if the bandcamp page (linked in the notes) was always the band's, but that's not the case. Some albums are published online by legitimate labels; others by hosts promoting/helping local artists. Removing the link in such instances will result in the loss of valuable information.

Of course it is valuable information but I think most people should be able to use a search engine and type "band name" "label name" "album name" and thus find the site for (legally) downloading/buying. But maybe I'm damn wrong with this assumption...

That's as maybe, but I had MA's welfare in mind not Google's.

Looks like it's not that easy to find a consensus regarding links to bandcamp in the additional notes

Looks like it's not that easy to find a consensus regarding links to bandcamp in the additional notes (valuable information vs. links becoming obsolete)

Is it at all possible to have a contact field as is the case with labels?

Or is that too much work?

Nequicia was formed in 2000, when drummer Gaston, who was already playing with guitarrist Leonardo, called musicians to start a new death metal into Brujeria's style. Vocalist Facundo Gomez (ex-SADDEN (Doom Metal), NECRONOMICON (Thrash Metal), SERPENT DIE (Thrash Metal), CIELO OSCURO (Doom Metal) and bassist Pablo Mamprin joined them.-

The wide range of musical influences converged in a prototype-band, that added many elements from other styles from death, thrash, heavy and hardcore to jazz, flamenco, blues and funk, being this mix of influences the birth of a new style, which was labeled by the band as SICK METAL.-

After a 50 name pre-selection NEQUICIA was chosen, old spanish synonym for evil or perversity.-

The band starts playing live and that year they release PURA MALDAD (Pure evil), demo that opened an era of non stop gigs of three years, with live shows in Buenos Aires, even playing with CARAJO two times and in Z FEST, in front of 2500 people, NEQUICIA being the only extreme band in the fest.-

In 2002 the band started to record their first live album, but economical crisis that afected Argentina didn't allow the band to go on, besides many arguments between the band's musicians on the mastering and mixing of the songs. This era ends when Pablo leaves the band, as he was not happy with the mixing, and Muneneori enters the banda, first on bass, then on guitar and Facundo P. as new bassist. This affirms the line up for two years.-

2004 was a productive year for NEQUICIA, as, besides they set up a powerful sound, they get to play for suppot act with BRUJERIA in their first Argentinian gig; this was also the year for their first gig with christian metal bands, rare fact as the singer is mostly know as El Cura (The priest), because he desses up as a priest for their live performances.-

Two months after the Brujeria shows, Munenory leaves the band, and right after that Facundo P. also leaves the band in very bad relations with the rest.-

Band takes Jose Lagarto Gonzalez, (Ex-SANEDRÍN (Brutal Death), SAGRADA PERVERSIÓN (Brutal Death), now BAGRONK (Death Grind), BUCAL DEFECATION(Death), by the beggining of 2005 -year of big changes on the band-, they release the compilatory CD DESORDEN MENTAL (Mental Disorder), including rarities, acoustic versions, live songs and some covers; Fabián Cejas (Ex-DEVASTACION, JINETEANDO) in rithmic guitar and Javier Figueroa in back vocals were recluted for the band, both from more extreme and technical styles, so the band starts to leave behind their original sound and influences, adding more violent influences, also added by Jose Lagarto, who in aougust leaves the band to dedicate to his personal project, BAGRONK.-

By october, after a tense internal situation due to personal and musical issues, drummer and lead guitarrist leave the band, being replaced by Damian C (Ex-LAGASH (Heavy Metal), actual NEMESIX(Heavy Metal) and few moths after Javier Figueroa leaves the band.-

After auditioning for bass players, Germ3n (Ex-BLASFEMIA (Grunge), actual CAYM (Grunge), gets the vacancy, adding to the band other attitude, as algon with Fabian they have an instrumental technique that let them evolute to a more precise, intense and coordinated sound, and at the same time more violent, crude and extreme, leaving behind once and for all those "very-far-from-metal" elements, and stabilyzing the line-up.-

Last, Leandro, (NEMESIX) enters the band and now the band is getting ready for fothcoming gigs.-

After a long-time silence, NEQUICIA opnes 2006 editing their new EP, EVOLUTION, that has two re-versions of old songs, two covers Poison Heart (RAMONES) y Bark At The Moon (OZZY OSBOURNE), and a new song; this EP signs the beggining of a new era for the band, from the esthetic point of view as the leave aside 95% of what the band used for five years, including the logo, as, due to the circumstances, a so-shocking change of style makes all previous musical and esthetic ways, and also evoluted into a more proffessional, responsible and stable band, musically and personalle, as the musicians have the same purpouse: Nequicia.

There are some "{label x}" inserted to additional notes:
