The link between sludge and post metal is evident in my eyes. I don't think they need two separate genres. 

Symphonic metal IMO is just another type of power metal. But it can be argued that two genres are needed. 

I agree that traditional metal should INCLUDE NWOBHM..... There's no need for two genres there... 

I don't think we need an atmospheric or neo-classical metal (there are genres already listed that can contain artists like that). 

Funk metal would go in alternative metal (no RHCP, please... they're not metal)



And we just split these up today.

 We are still working with all the Admins & Collaborators to get a good way of dividing bands into genres.

Bas.
