You and Miro should be presented medals for your work in here this year, haha. Killing it.

I give it up to the bands on facebook! Big resource and a lot of helpful individuals pointing me in the right direction and providing resources. Case in point: Wanderlost just sent me their three track ep only available at live shows. Will submit when I have access to my other computer again.

Yeah, it's always cool when they're helpful and especially when they send their music over instead of speaking in riddles or acting pompous when you have a genuine interest in something that they were a part of.

MI.S.S. (Italy) can be removed. Stands for Milano Southern Stuff, a band that included https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/ ... ach/628698 - party rock / cover songs.

Most of genres are taken directly from Discogs entries, so finding samples might still be good to verify whether it's metal or not.

Needs research. - Organ Grindr
Genre: ??
https://www.discogs.com/artist/12060802-Organ-Grindr

They are listed on this split:
https://www.metal-archives.com/albums/W ... ide/349694

Featured on this compilation:
https://www.discogs.com/release/2509390 ... -Offerings

I can't find any samples or other information.

The Common Man - US (I think) band
Split with Plague Thy Child who I have submitted.

Wouldn't be shocked if it was a similar style.
https://www.discogs.com/release/2716577 ... -Thy-Child

Has been submitted. - Mono No Aware

@Miro: Before I add anything from your list that is not tagged with a metal genre, I'd prefer having them at least confirmed to be metal. If there aren't any samples for blatant non-metal genres, and we have no reason to assume the tagging is super off, let's not waste our time with them.

Regarding Mono No Aware (2 posts above), here is some of their music. Shouldn't really be much research to do - it is a matter of whether or not this material is metal (haven't listened):
https://thumos.bandcamp.com/track/the-spire
https://thumos.bandcamp.com/album/the-p ... o-no-aware
https://thumos.bandcamp.com/album/lacri ... o-aware-ii
https://thumos.bandcamp.com/album/unwritten-doctrines-3

Thanks for reminding. Yesterday I was just checking all the unlisted bands for further research. I'll check now all non-metal bands.

Voidwork: ambient.

https://voidwork.bandcamp.com

Permanent Death: noise.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ja8BGZE5hMs&t=120s

Visions of War: not very familiar with this genre, leaning to punk side in my opinion.

https://visionsofwar.bandcamp.com

Kingterror: hardcore punk.

https://kingterror.bandcamp.com

Ulrike's Dream: has some metal moments, but still too punk.

https://open.spotify.com/artist/2zUwTUnqtMEbiSgsPofXRY

Bite Down: hardcore punk.

https://bitedown.bandcamp.com

My Aim: unacceptable metalcore to my ears.

https://open.spotify.com/artist/4RXhm832oq3QK7VfJwwdww

Badder: hardcore punk.

https://badder.bandcamp.com

I the Exploder: stoner rock.

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=O ... QweLc69R0w

Silver Bullet Machine: alternative rock.

https://soundcloud.com/silver-bullet-machine/sets/ep-1

Moonsurface: stoner rock.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LklX9gMiAs

This Can Hurt: industrial/gothic rock.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oobTLQusuw

Haemers: hardcore punk.

https://haemers.bandcamp.com

Days of Depths: ambient.

https://www.reverbnation.com/daysofdepths

So yeah, all these could be wiped off.

The band Collusion of Dishonest Purpose (C.O.D.P.) now has a Discogs entry. Their alt. title on the main list has the first word listed as Collision, but it's Collusion.
https://www.discogs.com/release/2889340 ... -Of-Embers

Needs research. - Виднеются дырки в носках
Location: USSR
https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/%D ... 3540467218

VR???

Found 2 of their demo tracks released on YouTube. I'll put this to submission thread to see if it's enough to make a submission. There are some other tracks released too which might indicate they released another demo as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmJUqCIDbZA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhqSMZGt27k

Needs research. - October
Location: Hungary
Genre: Heavy Metal/Hard Rock
Discography: Hétvégi láz (1994) (https://www.discogs.com/release/1623719 ... i-L%C3%A1z)

Line-up:
Rajkai József - Bass
Bors Csaba - Drums
Sásdi Tamás - Guitars, Vocals
Kreszta Gábor - Guitars, Keyboards, Vocals

You might also want to check bands tagged with 'metal' on the Face Your Underground list. 'The Evil Pony's' for example says metal but is just rock.

Regarding Sun of Blood, I was sent the full demo (which was never released I believe) and it sounds like a mix of punk rock and metal, leaning towards punk.
https://youtu.be/Vy026j_uCC0?si=v-VZ0SifA7JLvFfv

Yeah I've learned some Discogs tags are quite misleading like in this case. In some cases they might be good to give some sort of first impression of the band but still they're not to be trusted blindly.

Some Discogs entries from Corroseum list worth further research:

Compressor (Romania): https://www.discogs.com/artist/3420990-Compressor-5

Hades (Romania): https://www.discogs.com/artist/3367882-Hades-15

I'm 99% Miroir Miroir has no VR. The reverbnation mentions an album released on myspace, so streaming only.
https://www.reverbnation.com/miroirmiroir/songs

A couple of songs by October (Hungary) found on YouTube - not promising, unfortunately.

Krusher: No VR.
https://imgur.com/a/fugbNfI

Outsider: One single, no vr.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ol3qpVYCcRA

Overcome the Juggernaut: Some live footage. Sounds like it was probably more core than metal, but in all actuality they probably never recorded anything.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9i3Muaw_xU

Oxydus: Channel with one cover track
https://www.youtube.com/@OxydusOfficial/featured

Project Versus: Recorded an album and released on cd in 2009 titled "Welcome Down to Earth". Combined with the tracks on reverb, it's probably enough or close to enough to submit. Yay, nay?

https://www.reverbnation.com/projectversus/songs
https://www.facebook.com/projectversus/ ... 6941216055

Propane: Considering all three tracks on bandcamp were released on the same day, I think it's sage to assume it's a single EP. It was referred to as such on facebook. This might be moot now though, as I'm starting to lean towards the the music is rock more than metal.

Needs research. - Skull Krusher / Addictive Suicide
Location: Los Angeles, California, US
Genre: Thrash Metal
Members: John Romans (vocals - https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/ ... ans/213954 ), Mark Metcalf (guitars - also played in Death Valley Meth Lab (DVML) and BloodFist), Rick Babayan (drums), Rich Doll (bass). One of these 4 members seems to go by the artist name Spazmoid Dickie (also guitarist of Black Flame 13 and Reseda Groove Clinic).
Discography: Skull Krusher did this 4-song demo. Slightly more than just handwritten titles, there is a logo stamp used as well. Could use some confirmation of release/distribution. Year unknown, track listing: Lines of White/ Life Is an Illusion/ Vicious Cycle/ Gates of Insanity - https://imgur.com/a/OcUWtbu , https://www.ebay.com/itm/225863352127
- changed their name to Addictive Suicide in the 2010s (in August 2011, said they'd been together for almost a year. Not sure if that counts time that they were called Skull Krusher. Last FB post in 2015.

https://www.reverbnation.com/bloodfist3
https://www.facebook.com/bloodfistband

Needs research. - Takker
Location: Odessa, Texas, US
Genre: Heavy Metal (?)
Band members: Ricky Takker (guitars), Danny Williams (vocals - maybe this guy, considering the DLR jump in the live photo: https://dwcmap.com/our-story ), Efren Chavez (bass - had played in the Odessa, TX band Vision in 1987, which included Brian Cole, Alan Bailey and Richard Tedford (R.I.P.) - possibly same person as Ricky Takker), https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/ ... ston/15486 (drums). It sounds like they had a drummer prior to Eddie also.
Discography: Unknown
https://imgur.com/a/zwm3l2i (article is from 1988)
- members wearing Helloween and Savatage shirts are a good sign.

Needs research. - Next
Location: US (possibly Allentown, Pennsylvania or nearby, where Helffrich Recording Labs was based out of)
Listed genre: Heavy Metal ("high level of musicianship, excellent metal sound" - said by someone selling it for $2,500, so low credibility)
Discography: "Crash and Burn" / "Paradise" 7" (1985)
Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/release/2892020 ... -Paradise-

Needs research. - Tattered Fusion

Good news about a band active in this thread, B.F. Raid - they put 2 1983 demo tracks out as digital singles. Should be an easy accept (just posted about it for someone to submit). Can be removed once they're on the site.
https://bfraid.bandcamp.com/

BTW - The 6 pages of this thread may be worth looking through both for unlisted bands with a digital release, and for links to the Bandcamp page for existing bands on M.A.: https://heavymetalrarities.com/forum/vi ... 124&t=4364
That's where I found the link for B.F. Raid's Bandcamp.

Saink: This is the same artist behind Dilem, which was just added. When it was approved I saw that SullenDemigod changed the additional notes for the discography, changing the 'Fracture' album's format from unknown to CD. I'm assuming that's based off this picture? If so, then Saink should be added too, as it is pictured as well. For the record, I think theses are just art pieces. If Sullen changed it based off other info, then nevermind.
