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

http://metalstorm.net/bands/album.php?album_id=86399

Done, and added additional info about the re-release to the original. Thanks.

You should have an option to add a tour, no? It won't actually add the tour, but it should put into the queue for approval. Then from there we can link single events into the tour.

*At least I think you should be able to. It's been quite a well since I dealt with tours/events around here. Lol

@Staff

Why we cant trust to MA

Charles Greywolf

Guy did edit his profile

Quote:
Source: http://www.powerwolf.net/2011/matthew-greywolf.htm http://www.metal-archives.com/artists/Matthew_Greywolf/9936# http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powerwolf
I haven't modified anything since I don't know how to correct this, but it seems that wikipedia and metal-archives agree that Matthew Greywolf is Benjamin Buss [http://www.metalstorm.net/bands/bandmember.php?member_id=2048] and therefore there's a duplicate. Powerwolf's official site doesn't mention Mathew's real name, but it mentions his birthday, which coincides with Benjamin's. The same case can be made for Charles Greywolf [http://www.metalstorm.net/bands/bandmember.php?member_id=9745] and David Vogt [http://www.metalstorm.net/bands/bandmember.php?member_id=18039], again with the same wiki, m-a and birthday arguments. The Stefan Gemballa [http://www.metalstorm.net/bands/bandmember.php?member_id=2049] and Stéfane Funèbre [http://www.metalstorm.net/bands/bandmember.php?member_id=9747] lacks the wikipedia and birthday arguments since he's an ex-member. I hope I made my case


My PM to him in facebook:
Quote:
Hi
I am sorry for bothering you, but I am from metalstorm.net (I AM NOT A STAFF member) but I do datebase edit
Can you confirm that your real name is David Vogt and you're same guy what is playing in Flowing Tears.
Metal archives says so but our site don't accept those edit since there are planty errors

Can you confirm it?
Otherwise we are duplications, same musician 2 profiles

any maybe you know same facts about Matthew Greywolf , Benjamin Buss

We will appreciate it



This is what he answered

Quote:
Hey.
No thats wrong. Also dont know Why metal archives is writing that....
Thanks for asking!
Have a nice day.
Charles




STOP doing this MA based edit, its wrong !!!

FYI you all: when you select "default line-up" in the album page the musicians real was was displayed. We fixed that and from hence forth the correct alias/nickname will show up.
Yes, their real names are still listed under the default line-up box, but as soon as you apply it, their "artist name" will show up on the album page. If it doesn't, make sure their nick is added in the band page. Read here if you are unsure how to add this to the band and musician profile.

The drummer and bassist on Zakk Wilde's solo band aren't on the new album. Anyone know when they left and if the 2 new guys count as members or session? I've put them in as session for now.
Also, if a guest is only on a bonus track, do they still need to be added to the band's profile?
Oh, and Book Of Shadows II isn't metal. It's more southern rock or blues. Apparently the 1st album is, too, but I haven't heard the 1st one so I can't say for sure.

Considering that this solo stuff is not full time, I'm gonna say they're probably session members - you can leave this as such for the time being until it's revealed for sure.

The other guys were probably also only session musicians as, if I understand it correctly, Zakk did Book Of Shadows, and then that was it for 20 years until he decided he wanted to do BoS II.

Regarding the single track guesting, we're actually having a kinda sorta half-assed discussion about such things upstairs right now. For the time being, leave them off the profile, but include them on the album page (if they don't already have a musician profile on the Storm then don't create one for them at this time).

I have, and have listened to numerous times, Book Of Shadows. It's a fantastic display of primarily acoustic blues rock, and I figured BoS II would be as well. The solo project was added long ago, and since it's Zakk Wylde we've let it stay, but it should be set to "Can't be activated" (fixing that, and the style, now).

Thanks for bringing this up.

Should I change the other 2 members to session for the 1st album year only? Added Cory Taylor to the album page, in the additional info part.

Do we complain about genres here? I thought we had a "fix the wrong genre" thread or whatever but couldn't find it. Anyhow, Advent Sorrow should have "Symphonic Black Metal 2010-2014" and thereafter "Depressive Black Metal 2015-". There's nothing symphonic about Advent Sorrow anymore.

Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong topic.
