Requests for The Guardians Releases / Bands to be added to Metal Academy

Reply to this thread to request releases or bands to be added.

Can you please add Quartz Ben? I want to add a rating for "Quartz" & a rating & review for "Stand Up & Fight".

Quartz has been added.

I have to assume that the unreleased album from 1981/1982 that was finally released in 2015 as Too Hot to Handle is a heavy metal release. It only has 1 vote on RYM, and it's hard rock. The albums surrounding it are all considered heavy metal, so I've included in on the site until we know for sure.

I've added the first two, but don't think I can add St. Valentines Day Massacre yet. A number of Girlschool releases are considered metal primary, so I'll likely create a new band called Motorhead / Girlschool (or MotorheadGirlschool as the EP is actually attributed to that).

Please add the Zarpa Rocks album, the Heavy Load records & Iron Maiden's "The Soundhouse Tapes" EP Ben.

Heavy Load has been added.

Zarpa has been added. Thanks for sending me down the rabbit hole with this one. Just figuring which releases are genuine was hard enough, let alone finding artwork of a suitable quality.  (You know I love this shit though)

Maiden's Soundhouse Tapes is a 7 inch, so please don't make me add it. If I start adding 7 inch releases, I may implode.

Fair enough. Can you please add these:

1. Nokomono - "From The Black World" (1979)

2. All of Samson's back-catalogue

3. The Hand Of Doom - "Poisonoise" (1979)

All have been added.

I would like to some Horna and Behexen additions as I am quite into my Finnish BM and they both have strong discogs I feel.

Ben, please add the following:

Paralex (UK)

Killer (BEL)

Sarcofagus (FIN)

Hi Ben,

Really enjoying the concept so far, the navigation can be a bit clunky at times though.  So for example if I click on an album in the Chart section to rate it I have to then go back through to the Chart section via the menu again and reset my filters to the right clan and find where I was up to.

Thanks for adding those two bands, I will get a review up tomorrow on one of them.

I'll look into that. I tend to use my middle mouse button to open up a new tab when viewing releases so I don't lose my spot in the chart. But I agree, there should be some easy navigation back.

Note that any and all feedback is welcome.

Ben, please add the following:

Paralex (UK)

Killer (BEL)

Sarcofagus (FIN)

Holy crap! That's 62 full length albums + EPs, Comps and Live releases to do!

There goes my weekend.  Oh well, they had to be done some time. Might as well do them all in a marathon session.
