HAHAHA wha...?[views:9459][posts:73]__________________________________________________ [Jul 19,2009 11:58pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] Sorry TycoBrahe, Encyclopaedia Metallum was forced to reject your submission for the band Heisai Yasokawa's EMPTY ORCHESTRA (United States of America), for the following reason: Not metal; does not belong. If you would like to object to this rejection, please do so in the appropriate thread in the suggestions and complaints forum. Do not e-mail moderators directly about this. Sincerely, Encyclopaedia Metallum |

| ___________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:02am - archaeon ""] They're pretty retarded about that shit sometimes. Ion Dissonance isn't on there. and theres a lot of grindish stuff that would make sense on there that isnt |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:02am - RichHorror ""] Yeah, I fail to see how this is surprising. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:03am - archaeon ""] just make a shitty deathcore band, and itll be up right away |

| __________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:07am - RustyPS ""] okay THAT is surprising |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:07am - arilliusbm ""] They're not as liberal as they used to be |
| __________________________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:07am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] And all the TTOS projects are on that site EXCEPT HYEO. WTF? |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:08am - RichHorror ""] Now that is a shock. I remember they denied Benumb over and over. |
| __________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:13am - RustyPS ""] RichHorror said:Now that is a shock. I remember they denied Benumb over and over.I do remeber for a long time they had a straight up grind ban....which is illogical IMO |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:14am - RichHorror ""] They still do, if you click the 'not metal' link. |
| __________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:16am - RustyPS ""] isn't Gridlink on there though? |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:16am - arilliusbm ""] There are many loopholes in MA's submission standard |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:20am - archaeon ""] My favorite HYEO song is Rusty's ukulele solo |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:25am - RichHorror ""] Grindcore - Death/grind = OK. Noisegrind, crustcore, jazz/grind, heavy punk/hardcore, etc. = Not OK. |

| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:33am - PatMeebles ""] Whaaaaaa? 26 Beers is on there!!! HAHA |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:34am - RichHorror ""] I submitted Rampant Decay for lulz. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:51am - FuckIsMySignature ""] sweet scaphism's on there... needs to be updated though. http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=30194 |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 1:05am - boblovesmusic ""] haha, aww, I was hoping HYEO would get on there. Can't say I'm surprised for some reason. Sometimes you can go to the forums and argue your way in, but it's kinda annoying. Someday I'll do it for you guys! |
| _________________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 2:19am - BoarcorpseJimbo ""] Nick- maybe when we do the record in the winter it will get on. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 2:33am - gravesideservice ""] we made it to that site and spacecorpse left us neg rating right away... |
| __________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 10:16am - sxealex ""] ttos was metal because i was in it XD |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 10:17am - arilliusbm ""] The worst loophole with MA submissions are the Ambient / Dark Ambient stuff they add. It basically boils down to the Moderator's opinion. |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 10:34am - AUTOPSY_666 ""] Fuck that site. |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 10:36am - the_reverend ""] not news, terrible subject to go to the front page. |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 10:39am - arilliusbm ""] I presonally think Led Zeppelin belongs on MA. Even though they are "proto-metal" .. If Rush is on there, the Zeppelin can be on there. If Deep Purple is on there, then Zeppelin can be on there. Hell, I even think King Crimson should have a nod on that page. What the moderators deem 'metal' is ultimately redefining the whole genre for all the metal newcomers. Site getting real lame now. The review system also makes me sick. Nothing worse than reading a negative review about a GOOD classic metal album by some proclaimed 16 year old. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 11:36am - MillenialKingdom ""] Between The Buried and Me is not on here and that pisses me off. There are so many bands who should be included but aren't. Hell, they even accepted Emmure and labeled them Deathcore (which they are not). |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 11:37am - arilliusbm ""] I'm pretty sure BtBaM are on that site |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 11:38am - arilliusbm ""] they were for years. but I guess they were taken off. Good. |

| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 11:46am - arilliusbm ""] anything that overtly has more "-core" elements than metal elements will probably get the boot and/or not get accepted. BtBaM have always had a -core backbone but the musicianship is definitely top-notch with their touches of metal in the songs. |

No. There's not one single drop of death metal in their music whatsoever. |

BtBaM have always had a -core backbone but the musicianship is definitely top-notch with their touches of metal in the songs. They are most definitely metal. I think for the past 2 albums they've moved away from the Metalcore genre completely. I never really thought they were core to begin with. They've always been a Progressive Metal band to me. Progressive metalcore or something. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:09pm - archaeon ""] They have chugs like every 3 songs and they're tasty chugs. Also, archaeon was denied at one point because i submitted before our CDs were actually for sale. gay. |

Prayer for Cleansing > Between the Buried and Me |
| ________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:45pm - Pires ""] Agreed. So glad I saw the prayer for cleansing reunion at hellfest. Well worth the trip. That and shai huluds "last" show with Geert. Ahhhh memories. |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 12:46pm - RichHorror ""] We got rejected because our CD is imaginary, apparently. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 1:07pm - arilliusbm ""] I disagree man. Plain and simple. |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 1:20pm - The_Rooster ""] (1) Your band is awesome. (2) Fuck that stupid website. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 1:21pm - RichHorror ""] haha, I just figured we would sneak on since everyone in Rampant Decay minus the drummer is in or has been in a black metal or death metal band. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 1:25pm - arilliusbm ""] Won't hurt to try again? |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 1:26pm - RichHorror ""] I didn't care that much in the first place, I was just amused to see in what way we wouldn't make the cut. |

| ____________________________________ [Jul 20,2009 1:29pm - arilliusbm ""] They also won't add Powerglove because they're a 'cover' band.. |
| _______________________________ [Jul 21,2009 12:29am - jvv ""] everyones fav gradesideservice is on here haha can u search by just state? |
| _____________________________________________ [Jul 21,2009 7:08am - markrichardsmobile ""] Composted was put up on MA waaay before we released our CD. Cool that they did that but stupid since it's against their rules. As far as the whole BTBAM thing is concerned, they've maybe had about 5% "core" anything in their entire discography. |
