Genre: Symphonic Metal
Location: Hungary

First of all, I think this might be ready to submit, due to this band being relatively known and commented about on certain underground circles and I would like to get the mod's feedback on this.

They're the first incarnation of this band: https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/So ... 3540372038

[spoiler]They've released an EP called "Devil's Destiny" in 2012 and it was available for purchasing and downloading through their now deceased Soundcloud and Reverbnation page (the latter doesn't appear on archives.org, but SC does and the download button is still there, even though it doesn't work anymore):
https://awesomemetalbands.com/forum/sho ... ny-EP-2012

^ Also offers a brief description of their music:

"Symphonic metal with classical female vocals and progressive elements. The base fo the genre is made up by the symphony which is sounded by the keyboards, the choirs and the orchestral elements. This is accompanied by the guitars and the drums. The female tones sometimes are mixed with male vocals which is giving harder sounding for the melodic and classical female phrases."

A similar description of the above in here, in Hungarian:
https://www.rockbook.hu/zenekar/thristana

A review in English:
http://www.twoguysmetalreviews.com/2012 ... stana.html

"Thristana is a really cool symphonic prog band who know how to rock. Their music is very similar to that of bands like Nightwish and Amberian Dawn, yet they give it their own twist. They have a sound that is very professional and quite beautiful. The guitar work is filled with cool rhythms and heavy arrangements. You sense a major Nightwish influence in a lot of the riffs.They have the same 5/4 symph power metal magic. Yet the proggy edge of the song makes them a bit more unique. The bass playing is very heavy and adds a surprising amount of meat to the music. In particular I like the bass playing on Devils Destiny which somehow really gets to me. The drumming is pretty well executed and does a great job of capturing the atmosphere on the more symphonic bits. The piano is a crucial part of this group. It just adds so much power and magic that this band would be almost nowhere without it. It creates some beautiful bridges and has quite a few stellar lead lines. Finally, this bands' singer is brilliant. She has a beautiful classical voice that fits in perfectly with the music. I really like the overall mix too and it really makes everything come across crystal clear. In conclusion, Thristana is a lot of fun and a true symph metal experience. Check them out!"

- review in Revelation #3 (1991)
https://thecorroseum.org/fanzines/revelation-03.php
Translation: "The band was still a female band when the said tape was recorded, until they changed a few different line-ups! lived through. As a result, a male guitarist and bassist and a female drummer were added. The demo itself is pretty good and worth owning not just for the re-recordable cassette. When I saw the new line-up live, I was a little disoriented about their musical direction. They seem to have moved from melodic heaviness to heavier metal. Highlights on the tape are vocalist Kathryn Etzel's penetrating vocals and Deana Rigg's innovative guitar work. More info: ARIES c/o Gig Marit (Attn. Grina), 1509 S: Andrews Ave., Ft. Lauderdale, Fl 33316 (U.S.A.), $5 + postage"
- Des Moines, Iowa newspaper article from October '90 that mentions the band (I don't have access to see the whole article) - https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/127894534/ - name of member Kathryn Etzel is here, so it is the same band despite being from a state far from Florida, where they were located by the following year.

Genre: Nu-Metal. Possibly Groove Metal on the '96 demo (?)
Band members: Nuno (vocals), https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/ ... ruz/201567 ,
other 3 members can be found within this band's line-up: https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Mo ... nds/101536
Discography: "Blame" (1997) demo is nu-metal, as is the band that they became, Str@ain. They released one demo, "Against the Rules" (5 songs) that audio can't be found for. Have moved them from the site to here, as it's unlikely that they went from playing legitimate metal to what they were playing on "Blame" a year later. One of the songs on the first demo, "Hidden Propaganda" is also on the 1997 "Promúsica 9" compilation CD.
