The Hall of Judgement: Rainbow - Rising

Daniel requested that this release be submitted into the Hall of Judgement.

Request: With a result of 8 NO to 6 YES, Daniel's request to have Rainbow's Rising album changed to Non-Metal & removed from The Guardians was denied.

This change has seen the release stay in the Heavy Metal genre.

Member comment: "I've never regarded Rainbow's Rising album as being metal. To my ears there's far too much blues still present for that. I honestly don't know what people think hard rock is if Rising doesn't qualify for that particular genre tag. I'm proposing that Rising be removed from The Guardians & labelled as Non-Metal moving forwards."

NOTE: Only members of The Guardians could vote on this judgement.
