Kiron can be removed. It's a different band and I just submitted them.

TMG Prophecy of Ukraine should be spelled 'PROSPHESY' according to the guide.

So, regarding the Belgian Downward, it's a project from Humanity Defiled. The music of Downward though, is listed on Humanity Defiled's bandcamp (and consequently the MA page). It's also linked on the Downward website. Should this constitute the band's own page on MA?

Nosferatu (Ohio, US) were added today, and can be removed from the list. Thanks!

Symphonium (Norway) can also be removed (added recently), and so can Euthanasia (US - they're submitted with audio of the full demo that will determine whether or not they qualify).

Ice Field Kingdom: Archived site doesn't give me much to work with. These two listings however mention that at least two albums were on disc. Need to translate it to find this info though.

Impact: Looks to be the same HC band. The demo is in full on youtube (you can find it through the discogs page). Has metal moments, might be worth submitting, but I'd like another opinion. There's still a lot of core in this.

In The Name Of: According to this forum post, you could download the entire album from myspace. No archive page though, so we'd have to rely on TMG description of metalness.

Izjoga: This is a weird one because TMG tries to translate some russian characters into standard ones. This band is also known as 'Изжога', and the album 'Жить стало лучше, стало веселей' is on youtube in its entirety. Was released on CD. Will submit.

Location: Japan
Genre: Heavy Metal/Hard Rock (early), Nu-Metal (later)
Active: Active

I think this should be an acceptable band, but there's not enough info out there on them, or at least it's too spotty. This one was active in the mid 80s, got at least one feature of some kind in the prominent Rockin'f metal magazine Japan had back in the day, but I don't know which edition (I have a band photo that seems to be from one of those magazines), I'm hoping for direct mention in said magazine of the 5-track demo that I've linked audio for down below (the first link). There's at least the one demo tape, but I don't have cover art or a year for it.

The band reunited at some point modern-day and released a full-length which was unfortunately nu-metal, which earned them a spot on the blacklist. I'm focusing on their 80s era, which is entirely different and sounds like something pretty easily acceptable.

They have a physically released live-album of 1984 audio, containing an array of songs included below in both the demo audio (first link) as well as from another live performance from 1983 (second link), but I haven't actually heard it to verify if it qualifies.

Seems like moniker 'the' is giving me some trouble when searching for topic. I didn't get any results when using band's whole name but got this same post as a result when using only 'Deeps Beyond'. Will watch out for this in the future.

Tomorrow I'm leaving for Turkey and in the following weeks I'll enter Georgia, Armenia and other central asian countries. I hope to find something in dusty and forgotten shops and solve some mysteries along the way

Anyway, they may have some recordings. They appear on this compilation here:

Non-significant name change. - Divine

Yep, that's a minor change and no new page is needed.

If someone wants to take over on where I've been checking for bands daily for the past few years (I'm working more hours now, and don't have time to keep up with it any longer) - a lot of unlisted bands will be able to be found on these sites and with the following specific searches:

DISCOGS -
https://www.discogs.com/
Go to 'explore', 'explore all', style 'all', 'heavy metal'. Change sort from 'trending' to 'latest additions'. Then the results will show what heavy metal has been added most recently. The genres that I had been checking are: heavy metal, thrash (then 'x' off heavy metal), speed metal (then 'x' off thrash, etc. repeat with other subgenres), power metal, progressive metal, death metal, black metal, doom.

EBAY -
https://www.ebay.com/
The searches that I've been doing are "metal demo", "thrash demo", "rare metal cassette", "rare metal tape" (then change sort: best match to sort: newly listed). The reason that I search for demos specifically is that a lot of albums and EPs are already present on the site, and it's the best way to get to the real underground stuff.
This seller has been listing a lot of very rare stuff lately: https://www.ebay.com/str/riverratcollectibles
Demogod has been regularly posting extremely rare stuff for years: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_ssn=de ... me=demogod (he includes photos of the j-cards with release credits, which have been very useful to the site. He has a TikTok page where audio samples of auctioned tapes are sometimes posted: https://www.tiktok.com/@demograils )
- note: other countries have their own separate listings of eBay items, and checking ebay.it and ebay.uk, for example, can turn up different results.

THE CORROSEUM -
https://thecorroseum.org/
These are the categories that I had been checking on daily for updates: 'Reviews' (not updated often), 'Compilations' (not updated often), 'Fanzines' (updated about once a month, and when the updates come there will be like 12 new 'zines to read through), 'The Heavy Metal Mania' (German metal from '70s/'80s exclusively. Updated more often than most of the other categories. Sometimes has daily updates, and at times will go weeks without), 'Ye Olde Obscure North-American Heavy Metal 7-Inch Guide' (not updated often), 'Hellenic Steel' (had been at a dead stop for a year or more, but has begun having occasional updates), and the forum. The fanzine and The Heavy Metal Mania parts particularly are goldmines for unlisted bands, and additional information on listed bands.

HEAVY METAL RARITIES FORUM -
https://heavymetalrarities.com/forum (I'd been checking 'downloads' in the top tab, to see what the most recent ones are. Also, looking in 'requests' you can find some rare stuff, even if the music isn't fully available yet. 'Streams' / 'streaming zone' used to have updates regularly, but lately has been inactive as far as newly-posted releases go.)

FACEBOOK GROUPS / PAGES -

https://www.facebook.com/groups/LIHMH

YouTube channels:
https://www.youtube.com/@norwegian_obscurity
https://www.youtube.com/@heavymetalofeasternbloc (note: pictures used here often aren't for the actual release, but it is a good way to find bands and rare recordings, and look into them from that point)
- I had also been running two weekly searches on YouTube, "metal demo" and "thrash demo", and then change filter to "this week." In addition to old releases that people upload with j-cards, things that have been recently added to digital platforms are often uploaded to YouTube as well with a noted copyright of a very recent date, and can then be looked for on the most common digital platforms, Spotify, Apple Music, and Deezer. Being so recently added, they sometimes won't appear there in a Google search yet, but can be found on a search within the platform:
https://open.spotify.com

Looking at the most recent things for sale/pre-orders on Sonic Age Records is also good for finding bands and adding new versions:
https://www.sonicagerecords.com

Haven't checked any of these for the last 4 days, so likely Discogs and eBay, if not other resources listed above will already have something to be found.


Cheers.

Should not 'Hellslaughter' be removed for lack of VR? I don't believe they put anything else out besides the plagiarized material.

Kasakit: According to the forum post Spooky link, the EP was available for sale albeit an unknown format. Should be enough to submit, no? Gotta translate the page if you want that info.

Cadaveres De Tortugas is also in the queue.

Can you quote the relevant part? Had some trouble finding it on short notice.

They were listed on the site previously but were nuked 'cause it was unsure whether or not it was released physically by my guess. May be good to confirm if I'm getting this right.
