Talk:Australian heavy metal

Atrocity Records
I think this should be removed (I may remove it yet). It's not an active record label, they haven't even "launched yet". The guy is of very questionable character and has screwed over Perth metal bands and moved to Brisbane to try to start again. I think as it has no releases/no distro/no anything it shouldn't be in the list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.1.223.204 (talk) 14:27, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree. I would prefer to see the list of both labels and bands restricted to fairly "notable" ones rather than every dude who decides to start up a "label". --BrianFG (talk) 13:35, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Almost Human
This article is intended as an overview of Australian metal and the section about this band seems a bit long. I think they were prominent enough to be mentioned but an entire paragraph is a bit out of proportion with the rest of the article. I'm going to shorten it. Please discuss here and not in the article itself thanks! BrianFG 10:09, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Pathogen
Perth Melodic Death metal band Pathogen has gone on to support Major acts such as Children of bodom, Arch enemy, lamb of god and As i lay dying.

I took this part out because this article is an overview of major aspects of the scene. Pathogen has one self-released album so far. This doesn't really make them notable enough for this article. Supporting a list of international touring bands is not enough either as in Australia lots of unsigned bands open on tours. PS. I have nothing against Pathogen as I think they're great but in the context of this article I think they aren't quite notable enough --BrianFG 02:05, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Vice
This article is intended as an overview of Australian metal and the section about this band seems a bit long. I think they were prominent enough to be mentioned but an entire paragraph is a bit out of proportion with the rest of the article. Please discuss here and not in the article itself thanks! I don't want an edit war over this band to ruin this article. If Vice is notable enough, perhaps they should have their own article on Wikipedia --BrianFG (talk) 08:28, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Melbourne Grindcore
This article doesn't mention the flourishing of the Melbourne Grindcore scene over the last 8 or so years.

After the crust scene in the mid 90s (Beanflipper et al), Grind made a resurgence in Melbourne, particularly around the No Escape record label and the Arthouse Hotel.

Bands like The Kill and Fuck...I'm Dead!, led a renaisance of grindcore which is appealing to more and more diverse music crowds (witness the success of the Grindcore 2008 festival).


 * By all means a section about this should be added. Maybe someone who's closer to the scene than I am could add something?--BrianFG (talk) 07:30, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Notable albums
I took this section out as it was really completely POV. --BrianFG (talk) 03:58, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Pendulum
You have forgotten to mention Pendulum in the Text--188.101.79.124 (talk) 09:58, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

Grindhead Records
Fixed link to their website and followed the Coffins Slave paragraph to include mention the two festivals they run. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.168.167.66 (talk) 10:29, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
