List of industrial metal bands

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Not a single reference for over 2 3 years. I suspect this is a fancruft page. Many of the bands are already cross categorized into other genres. Are all these bands cited as industrial metal as well in (music) journalism? Curb Chain (talk) 03:25, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep Tons of sources are out there. Just because they haven't been added doesn't mean they don't exist.  This article wasn't even tagged before the AfD nomination.  AfD is not for article clean-up.  —Torchiest talkedits 03:47, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Lots of sources, just look. Bands can be polycategorized into many genres, as they may well "have at some point in their careers played industrial metal" as well as playing other genres. Samwb123T-C-E 05:42, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep A notable list of musicians by a notable genre. The list has a clear inclusion criteria. I feel this is a POINTY nomination by Curb Chain, after a similar list was kept.  Lugnuts  (talk) 08:20, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure this is notable, but as yet, this has not been proven. Over 3 years without a reference.  I'm not going to spend 3 more years to write a well referenced article.Curb Chain (talk) 20:21, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
