Xandria's "Ravenheart" and "Salomé: The Seventh Veil" should be under gothic metal

The Lisa Middelhauve era of Xandria (their first 4 albums) has more of a symphonic gothic metal sound as opposed to the symphonic power metal in subsequent releases. These two albums exemplify their earlier sound with upbeat melodies and symphonics mixed with the dark and melancholic atmosphere of gothic metal. So I'd like to send Xandria's "Ravenheart" and "Salomé: The Seventh Veil" to the Hall to be added to The Fallen and gothic metal while maintaining The Guardians and symphonic metal.
