However, recently, J. N. said that we could use "backing vocals" or "spoken word" or whatever for guest and studio musicians, but not the actual band members.

That makes no sense whasoever.

Well, I'll leave it up to the staff to work out.

This album has no style tag as a result of the band disbanding before its release. Can someone fix this?

Just noticed Opeth's styles are misleading. It should be as such:

1990-2002 Extreme progressive metal
2003 Progressive rock
2004-2010 Extreme progressive metal
2011- Progressive rock

Damnation already has the prog rock tag, just not visible on the band profile.

Yup, I did have a look, but I guess I didn't see it. In any case it should look like this then:

1990-2010 Extreme progressive metal
2011- Progressive rock

Just want to reiterate this AGAIN before the main styles of bands get changed all over the place:

OK @ ALL ..... the reason why we implemented the album style feature is so that the band style will NOT be changed fifty thousand times when a band releases an 'out of style' album. Please, don't change the band styles around if you feel album x is not their usual.

Yeah, definitely agree with that and it makes perfect sense. Not sure if you're a fan of Opeth or have heard their stuff, but they've followed the extreme progressive metal style up until 2010 (barring Damnation, which has a custom prog rock tag. I think calling Ghost Reveries and Watershed progressive metal would be a misrepresentation of what the album actually features. What do you think?

Also anyone else who reads this, please let me know what you think.

that's what why we make that style change new rule to not add any single style to the band page to not fill 100 genres, but fill it in album

Totally agree. But, do you agree Opeth needs their styles fixed? They were never progressive metal - only extreme prog.

disagree Ghost reveries are way to heavy to be just prog rock

Yes, it's extreme progressive metal.

Just noticed that this one album has been flagged for a very long time now:

Speed N' Spikes Vol. I , added by Cesar1391 on 22.10.2015.

Could a member of staff have look at that? Since it's flagged I cannot reject it. Couldn't find any official source that verifies its existence.

How about fixing 3 delete and 4 act req bands what are not in a list
and those who accept delete
when someone requ delete, click submit , and then delete manually, if you click auto delete when request is pending it wont get rid of it and there will be error

Pain Of Salvation recently announced they would be reissuing their album Remedy Lane under the title Remedy Lane Re:visited (Re:mixed & Re:lived). Should this have it's own entry in the database as a separate album or just be part of the additional info on the original album?

This album needs to be removed. It is a 10th anniversary re-release of the 2006 album and is in no way different from that album
