Talk:The Faceless

Albums
Their two album articles were userfied in my userspace: User:Amalthea/Akeldama (album) and User:Amalthea/Planetary Duality. There's not much of use there, and nothing sourced at all, but I'm thinking that at least Planetary Duality passes WP:MUSIC since it charted on The Billboard 200. I'm not finding much coverage, but I'm probably looking at the wrong places. If anyone want's to try cleaning them up, feel free to do so. Otherwise I'll try myself once I find the time.

 * Wow, finally this page got brought back. Yay. Planetary duality charted at #119. 24.16.73.118 (talk) 04:58, 19 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I moved Planetary Duality back into article space now, since it was recreated as a copyright violation just before. I brought it up to date and cleaned it up, but there's still loads of information missing (e.g. most blatantly the track lengths), reviews to be sought, etc. Since I know neither band nor album, I'm sure someone here can help?

I will assist. FireCrystal (talk) 02:15, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

 * The userfied article of Akeldama has been deleted again, as far as I can tell it doesn't pass the inclusion guideline at this point. If someone thinks it does I'd be happy to restore it again. Cheers, Amalthea  00:03, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Debut album
y is there no info on there first album(Seth4000 (talk) 14:41, 25 February 2009 (UTC)) Seth4000


 * This is because their debut album wasn't noticed yet by the media and it was only until Planetary Duality was released when they were recognized as a top modern tech death band with their charting and touring, etc. FireCrystal (talk) 18:34, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

DJ Schwartz
Was there a drummer at one time in The Faceless who went by the name of DJ Schwartz? The information was put there a while back by an anonymous user. I highly doubt that this person was a drummer of the band, but is there any reliable source that would confirm that a person by that name was in this band? This could've easily been a vandalism that was meant to introduce false information. I've tried to look it up, but to no avail. I looked up the band that DJ Schwartz is in, and it turns out that I have proof of a band named Sunny Days and Stickmen with a drummer named DJ in it. This is their myspace. So, unless if there is proof supplied that DJ Schwartz was in this band as a drummer, then I will remove that piece of information soon. Thanks.

 * Okay, then. I'm taking down the information. If anyone objects, go ahead and revert my upcoming edits AS LONG AS YOU HAVE A SOURCE TO CONFIRM DJ SCHWARTZ WAS IN THIS BAND. Backtable Speak to Me  about what I have done  20:35, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

Genre
Technical death metal? They sound much more like deathcore than tech-death to me. Metal-archives lists them as both.

 * The Faceless is technical death metal. If we're going by Wikipedia definitions, they most certainly are not deathcore. They don't play standard "deathcore" breakdowns. They are also fairly consonant (opposite of dissonant) for a death metal band. I reply now, as opposed to sooner, because a few days ago an anon user changed the genre and lead to add deathcore. I'm going to remove deathcore from both sections for now, but if you or someone else feels really strongly against this, we can discuss what genre(s) we shall use.

Yes, I agree, in that they are very melodic, but they are technical death metal. I am also having the problem of someone reverting every genre to "technical deathcore" and even "progressive metalcore", which they certainly are not. I will carry on reverting to tech-death-I also think they are progressive death metal as well- but if the genres keep changing, I would like to (try and) semi- protect the article.Drumkid13 (talk) 08:03, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

-CynicalDouche-

This is not Death Metal. The vocal and guitar progression is very much like deathcore. Yes, there's no dissoance, but that's only common under other core genres. Technical Deathcore and Technical Death Metal are VERY different. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CynicalDouche (talk • contribs) 22:23, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

Some sources missing (unsigned and undated pre-February 2013)
I notice some sources are missing and this article needs to be cleaned up in the grammer and spelling departments. I did some recent changes to the words bad to band and thehr to their. If someone can source the last statement about the upcoming album that would be great.
