I'll be reviewing this article.

After examining the article, I'm going to have to fail it. There are large portions of uncited text as well as unformatted refs (the issue of unformatted refs was even brought up a month ago on the talk page, but the issue has not been addressed since then. The lack of sufficient sourcing means that sentences like ". . . incorporated dragging dirge riffs, maniacal punk-metal outbursts, and droning industrial and gothic atmospheres. The songs were long, multi-part theatrical epics, with lyrical topics ranging from heartbreak to getting revenge on a cheating lover, and even contemplating suicide." come off as editorializing. Unreliable references like Metal-Archives are used. It also appears that some genuinely cited material has been removed since the article's last GAN. As mentioned in the last GAN, the "Soundtracks and covers" section remains largely uncited. Dating styles in the reference vary (and on occasion use British instead of American dating). Unfortunately this article still requires a lot of work before it is ready for another Good Article nomination. WesleyDodds (talk) 05:49, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
