 * Speedy Keep - As with most music genres, this list provides readers more information than a category. While origin of the band is the only additional information given in the list in question, it could be enhanced to provide more information. See here for more lists. As many bands (particularily in the rock / heavy metal area) are associated with a large range of different genres or subgenres, often not all genres are included by category in the article to prevert overcategorization. This list gives the info that would be missing that way. Also, I cannot help but to assume bad faith in this nomination (nu metal is a genre disliked by many), as the nominator did not nominate any other lists, some of which are identical in layout to this one. Further more, the nominator did not provide an actual reason for deletion. ~ | twsx | talkcont | ~ 16:58, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
