Well, it was almost perfect. Malagamus Muck and Mourneblade are pretty straight forward thrash. I might even venture far enough to say Malagamus Muck is good(ish). And after some searching, I'm pretty confident to say that Mourneblade is not one of the already listed entries by the same name. I'll have these both submitted as soon as I can get my USB recorder to work again. (PM me and I'll get a rip to anyone that wants one).

God Awful on the other hand...I don't even know what the fuck to call this. It's full of sporadic metal riffs sprinkled among non-metal wankery, odd progressions and off-beat time signatures, with prominent bass riffs and a shitty attempt at a power metal falsetto from the vocalist. I welcome a second opinion when I have the rips to share, but this one is likely a strike out.

Not to be an ass, but at this stage, it's all irrelevant as it's pretty much Dungeon Synth and wouldn't be accepted on the Archives anyway.
Try this link for some info :
http://ascoven.blogspot.co.uk/2011/12/elfen-to-eldamar-from-minas-morgul.html

But the demo is considered black metal.

In the related videos along the right-hand side, you can listen to the entire release. It is, indeed, mostly some strange dungeon synth.

Here are a bunch of bands that I know exist(ed?), but I have little to no info about. Some of them I'm not even sure if they are metal or belong on the site (see the ? marks)! If you know anything about any of these bands, then by all means add them, or let me know (if they don't qualify) and I'll remove them from the list. Some have links in case anyone is interested in adding them but requires more info...

You may also request a band (or more info regarding the band) in the metal forum.

Regarding Cybernetic Erosion, I can confirm, that it is the same band, which iis listed on Discogs.com. Their style is certainly not metal, but EBM/industrial/darkwave. I do nnot have the samples from the album mentioned in the original post, but here is anotherfull album of theirs, which is certainly not metal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjGOoJsRhr0
Also importantly, there are some songs from the album mentioned in the original post here on the Cybernetic Erosion Soundclick page: https://www.soundclick.com/bands3/defau ... did=264660
https://www.discogs.com/artist/2059097- ... ic-Erosion

Yeah, that Cybernetic Errosion was listed as Industrial/Heavy Metal on Discogs. Turned out that the album was some soft electronic industrial with some sort of wave music. Didn't even have guitars...

Thanks a lot , Paganiusi, for re-organizing the threadd. It bears the first fruits:
Regarding Alliance (USA), here is the B-side of their single "Born Again": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sy21svNvyaU
Alliance discography at Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/Alliance-Water- ... se/6268835

Edit: regarding Cappa/Seifert, the entire song "Steel City Metal " is available on a digital compilation of rareheavy metal and hard rock singles at the HMR forum. I am not a member there, but I know, that some mods are, for example Azmodes: http://heavymetalrarities.com/forum/vie ... php?t=3185

Cappa/Seifert: some copies on EBay
https://www.ebay.de/itm/Steel-City-Meta ... :rk:3:pf:0
https://www.ebay.de/itm/45-DON-CAPPA-C- ... :rk:2:pf:0

But Az will take a look at it again shortly.

About Cappa/Seifert, the track in that HMR compilation isn't the full thing. It's the 1:30 sample that was already provided in the submission.

Regarding Glace: Their drummer Ryohei has also played in the well-known visual kei band Candy. I have also found recently an info page on Glace , unfortunately it is all in Japanese
https://www22.big.or.jp/~yunisan/vi/glace.html

I've seen that site before and they have a fairly standard layout. Top bit lists each member by instrument/name then each band they were in before and after the band in question. Plus a similar line for their regular support bassist in this case.

Bottom bit is their discography

Other details: Kurosaki MARCUS Ogura WOW distribution

Release date: 01/06/23
Other details: STUDIO Do! Distribution DT

There's a fairly basic bio, which agrees with Rob M's here: https://vk.gy/artists/eve-1996/
(Note: There's at least two other bands with the same name at the site, but this is the one in the original video)
Lists the two demo tapes and track lists but not the covers, though I found a copy of the named demo (with pic) for sale here: http://genka-market.jp/?cn=100125&shc=10024052

Thanks Bill again for your great work. Aquestion to the mods, since this was my rejected submission: Could Eve be resubmitted now, that we have proof of physical release and confirmation of the bio? I think the song at youtube is convincingly power metal based.

Given that the demo that is for sale there (second hand, I assume) has "NOT FOR SALE" written right on the front artwork, I'd love to have a bit of info regarding a public release. Looks a bit sketchy, more like a promo thing that wasn't meant to get to the public.

The Japanese describes it as a 'haifu' (distribution) demo tape which will mean it was given away 'free' to fans who bought tickets and attended one of their live shows (i.e. included in the ticket price). Sometimes they're limited in number (e.g. 100 copies) so they work on a "first come, first served" basis. Not sure if that's exactly within the rules for a release at MA?

Also found a copy of their first demo for sale here at a HM/HR VK shopping site if that helps though: http://aduma8.shop-pro.jp/?pid=49149404
Suspect this one wasn't a freebie as its a bit longer (4 songs) and isn't marked 'not for sale'.

worth getting another look in the queue then. Seems fine to me.

Regarding Idare: Their former guitarist Maasa has a new solo project called sirene. He was also in Vampire Rose.
Official Sirene homepage: https://sirenet.official.ec/
Official Sirene Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCzVxu ... 2oKGkDr1Qh
https://www.jpopasia.com/sirene/
https://vk.gy/artists/vampire-rose/

Regarding Jéz: I found some links, which at least prove, that the Youtube bio is largely correct and that the band was active under the name Jéz Qold since 2010 for several years. Unfortunately all the info is in Japanese, so it would need someone, who can read the language, to get more possible info from it: http://98.xmbs.jp/Jozqold/?guid=on
http://sonic-project.com/mitoi/link_zimoto_hijklm.htm
So the band was active under the name JΦZ Qold from 2010 to 2013 The band name should be also corrected to JΦZ instead of Jéz, because it is the correct transcription and I was only using the incorrect one in my original submission, because I had some problems with copying and pasting the epsilon letter.

That link gives me an error message, but the "main page" confirms that this band existed.

Wading through a ton of Google results for gay porn (terrible band name), I found this GeoCities site, which is either official, or a really thorough fan page. It includes a bio and an email to purchase all three J.O.G. releases. The updates to the band history and upcoming shows tabs stops around Fall 2000, but the shop page includes the 2001 and 2002 albums as well.

There are two samples from the 2002 album for download on the 'sound' tab, bot in .ram filetype. The first is the same song linked in the original YouTube video. The second is another song, "I go to Heaven"; I tried to convert the file into a more easily-readable format like MP3, but none of the programs I have off-hand worked. If anyone has Real Media Player or another .ram compatible program, go for it.

I did also find two other links that seem to corroborate the YouTube bio's claim that they reformed and toured. Both of these are tour history pages for other bands where Jack Off Guys is mentioned:

-Page 1
-Page 2

===========

I struck out with both Gideon Knights and Hot Coke, the only info on either really coming from either the linked YouTube videos, or pages about the VA Comps they are featured on in said YouTube videos.

I'm sure someone has already done so, but if not, perhaps we could reach out to the person behind that YouTube channel and see if he could shed some light on his sources. He seems to be fairly proficient in the scene.

Sorry for the delay MCH. Nice job finding that site, looks like the release issue is satisfied, but I have no clue right now how to get that sample to play. Besides, while two songs are definitely better than one, it's still rather slim.

EDIT: hmmmm, seems like the files are no longer working? I just get super tiny files when I try to save it locally.

If you open the .ram files with a text editor you get the direct link to the download you just well...downloaded, because .ram is "Link file used by RealPlayer, a program used for streaming Internet audio and video; saved in plain text and contains a hyperlink to a corresponding .RA file, which can be streamed; includes a "pnm" or "rtsp" URL, which are the protocols used to access and play RealAudio data."
https://fileinfo.com/extension/ram

That's why they're so tiny.

EDIT: Files are still working, currently listening to them and searching a way to save it

EDIT 2: here you go, I hope (It's the "Ｉ　ＧＯ　ＴＯ　ＨＥＡＶＥＮ" song)

Regarding Teen Spirits: The name of the band is actually Teen Sprits, not Spirits, since it is listed so in the video and on the Anarchist records III compilation, so it would be nice, if this could get corrected. The band had also aanother song on that compilation" melody" so if somebody has the entire compilation and could upload this song, I would be really grateful. Info: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyHYRQxMkBU
https://vk.gy/releases/teen-sprits/
https://vk.gy/releases/12012/6313/anarc ... ii-shouki/

Found　two old web pages for this one (mostly Japanese):
First page: http://www.ask.ne.jp/~prnmania/hotcoke.html
Later page: http://www.page.sannet.ne.jp/ryusuke-s/hotcoke.html

Had a brief look around, and it includes first demo CD-R track list here: https://web.archive.org/web/20001210174 ... tcoke.html but picture and sound sample links are broken unfortunately. I have the Slu[gd]e Compilation mentioned, but it just includes the song on Rob's video, so its not much help if you still need more samples.

Regarding Eroticism : Iam posting a link to the entire Shikkoku No Symphony III compilation, because it features the Eroticism song "Dead Line", which is not on the Rob M channel, so the mods can listen to it: http://jp-rock.blogspot.com/2018/10/shi ... 99504.html
https://vk.gy/releases/eroticism/

Listening to that comp that features Eroticism, they still sound fine to me. Needs more proof regarding the release though.
