Roadrunner United's "The All-Star Sessions" should be under groove metal

First Post November 10, 2023 11:27 AM

The highly ambitious 25 anniversary Roadrunner release is currently tagged as alternative metal, but you can't deny the metalcore, thrash, groove, and to a lesser extent, death/black metal appearing here. While the alternative metal tag will still be kept on for this album as a general genre for many of the songs covering alt-metal, nu metal, and alt-rock, but it's as dominant as groove metal which appears in many others, particularly the heavier tracks written by Robb Flynn (Machine Head) and Dino Cazares (Fear Factory) not too far off from their respective bands and Sepultura. With that, I'd like to send Roadrunner United's "The All-Star Sessions" to the Hall to be added to the Pit as groove metal, while maintaining its position in The Gateway with alternative metal.
