I think this excellent band should absolutely be here. Here is their official site:

but, but, but .... they're not Metal.
Carl McCoy's The Nefilim and their only release "Zoon" was sort of gothic industrial/black metal-ish.

After spending more time exploring this artist, it seems like it is more rock than metal. Sorry, I will have to delete it.

It is a shame, because they are a damn fine band and one of my favourite Goth Rock bands. You can probably add The Nefilim I would have thought as they are called "Metal" in a lot of places.
/edit: not to be confused with Nefelim, which is a different band all together Edited by dean - 26 Mar 2010 at 1:11pm |

Yes, it seems The Nifilim fits more in Gothic Metal: http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/the-nefilim.aspx

Cian Houchin's Saints Of Eden is a really good industrial-techno-gothic-metal band well worth checking out - I'd have to give them a proper listen sometime to see if they're really metal or not (they are a bit like Rammstein so it's a possible)

I guess this thread can ble closed, and that the suggestion mentioned at the end should pop up in a new thread.

Yes, they belong to gothic ROCK, not gothic metal. I can't hear any metal in their first three albums.
Zoon is a side project by Carl McCoy and is indeed metal, but that is not an album by Fields Of The Nephilim.

maybe we should include only their last album.
And what about Killing Joke, who didn't play metal until 1990 ???? Should they be in MMA : maybe only their metal albums ?

The non-metal albums released by bands included in the database are indeed listed in their discography, but tagged Non-Metal, and cannot be reviewed. I think this is a very wise solution, because site users can get the whole picture of a band's output without seeing reviews of non-metal albums on the front page (something that seems to upset so many people).
Anyway, I think it's time to close this thread, and open a new one with Dean's suggestion. |
