Special Horde removal judgement submission week: Day 7 - The Gathering's "Downfall: The Early Years"

First Post February 14, 2021 12:46 AM
My last judgement submission of this special week is for this album from a band that I lost interest in along with the rest of my earlier epic metal taste because of this band's later alt/prog rock. Similar to that Paradise Lost compilation, this album is a collection of demos The Gathering made before they released their debut album Always... However, once again, while there are standard death metal elements in the demos, death-doom is much closer to doom. I don't think a gothic death/doom turned alt/prog rock band would ever belong in The Horde. So I'd like to submit The Gathering's "Downfall: The Early Years" to the Hall with the proposal of removing it from The Horde while keeping it in The Fallen.

Thanks Ben! And good timing too, my departure from death metal (https://metal.academy/forum/10/thread/748) is only a couple days away. All that's left is my submission for Persefone's Core to be removed from the Horde (https://metal.academy/forum/28/thread/688), could you please add that to the Hall during your next judgement submission addition round? Thanks again!
