Tundra: Please remove death metal tag from these bands

NexCeleris 01.09.25	Except for Whitechapel, who veered into the dm lane on their latest two releases, this list is actually spot-on. Well done.
jrlikestodance 01.09.25	Despised Icon is definitely a death metal band (just not purely). They sound very close to Dying Fetus especially on their earlier stuff
NexCeleris 01.09.25	Oh, that's true.
Tundra 01.09.25	I actually had to double-take at seeing Emmure with death metal tag LOL. That looks so insanely wrong.
JohnnyoftheWell 01.09.25	post in meds
jrlikestodance 01.09.25	Definitely agree on Emmure. I even think calling them deathcore might be a little bit of a stretch. They lean far more metalcore
Feather 01.09.25	I am sure this will be the meds first priority!
JohnnyoftheWell 01.09.25	there's been plenty of tag management in past meds if you don't post there, at least provide suggestions of which tags should replace the dm tag in individual list entries
jrlikestodance 01.09.25	Can we vote on genre additions in the meds threads or is Sput too far gone for that to be a thing? Lol
JohnnyoftheWell 01.09.25	lmfao I wouldn't get your hopes up
GhandhiLion 01.09.25	We already did that last year kind of
GhandhiLion 01.09.25	Non zero chance that some of the other genres mentioned then turn up randomly one day
jrlikestodance 01.09.25	I figured as much lol but gotta ask! Crazy stuff like jungle, footwork, tech house, and melodic metalcore are not options
DaveyMonsoon 01.09.25	I'm surprised Sput never had a tech death/tech thrash tag personally.
Cygnatti 01.09.25	Not to be a hater but I don’t really consider tech death or tech thrash as high priority additions. Death core and like disco were more appropriate.
veninblazer 01.09.25	Is this really that big of a deal christ almighty you take your pie too seriously
ArsMoriendi 01.09.25	A quick google of the first band shows they're both deathcore and technical death metal according to RYM, so a removal of the tag for that band seems just to benefit your chart rather than to be for accuracy
ArsMoriendi 01.09.25	@jr: I discovered that all "new tags" were in Sput's code for like a decade, they just needed to be unlocked, so unfortunately unless you can find a secret already existing page for a genre, your genre can't be added until mx decides to do it himself (which is likely never) That being said, I did scour all of those secret pages and it's how I found glitch, neofolk, and darkwave
jrlikestodance 01.09.25	Good to know Ars. I was always curious to know what the process for an update like that would be. Don't think I'm computer savvy enough to unlock those hidden tags sadly
Tundra 01.09.25	I thought about meds but.. listing all these bands out seems excessive lol, guess not
ArsMoriendi 01.09.25	If you wanna look yourself incase i missed one this is how you'd do it: 1. Go to a genre page, like https://www.sputnikmusic.com/genre/23/progressive-rock/ 2.Change only the number in the URL (the 23 here) to a different number (when I change https://www.sputnikmusic.com/genre/23/progressive-rock/ to https://www.sputnikmusic.com/genre/24/progressive-rock/ the page for bluegrass comes up, but https://www.sputnikmusic.com/genre/45/progressive-rock/ turns up "not a valid genre") if you hit a page that doesn't have a showing tag, the mods can make it show 3.Tell the mods to add the genre you found
ArsMoriendi 01.09.25	I only did it to like 300 or so because I stopped finding ones after like 250ish? Synthpop is 251 But yeah Glitch, Darkwave, and Neofolk were all found that way and now we have them
Avagantamos 01.09.25	also remove the electronic tag from all drum & bass, techno, house, dubstep, garage, IDM, glitch, breaks, downtempo & trance artists
JohnnyoftheWell 01.09.25	plz make an actual list of these and hit the meds with it (I killed a lot of electronic tags last yr and dropped the slice from my pie entirely, but it's a lot easier to do by profiling your own ratings) "listing all these bands out seems excessive lol" you have already done literally just that for the benefit of people who can't help you, so go the extra mile plz and thanks it is one slightly-edited copypaste away
Tundra 01.09.25	Just done it, all good
Tundra 01.09.25	@venin yeah true, but I've wanted to make this for a while now. I was cool with it for years, even, but.. my pie is just inaccurate as it stands. That death metal tag leads people to believe I'm some dm mega fan, when really, all I like is tech death and deathcore.
Hawks 01.09.25	Lmao
ThyCrossAwaits 01.09.25	Still no deathcore or harsh noise tag
GiaNXGX 01.09.25	it’s a long stretch to claim Wchapel and Carnifex arn’t dm
bellovddd 01.09.25	lol
ArsMoriendi 01.09.25	@ThyCross: you’re half wrong Or 75% wrong if you’re not aware there’s a regular noise tag now that isn’t noise rock
GhandhiLion 01.10.25	Ars what did you mean by "doesn't have a showing tag"? The sput page loads normally but there's no listed releases?
ToSmokMuzyki 01.10.25	tundra youre a swell guy no matter what anyone says about you
chemicalmarriage 01.10.25	This motherfucker loves his pie chart. I wish I could mail you some mushrooms and send you to someplace beautiful to trip at. I need to hit the lottery
Butkuiss 01.10.25	TAIM at least were actually very dm on The Adversary, but they went back to deathcore on Hate.
jrlikestodance 01.10.25	Lmao chemical
ArsMoriendi 01.10.25	"Ars what did you mean by "doesn't have a showing tag"? The sput page loads normally but there's no listed releases?" Like I found the page for darkwave BEFORE mods allowed to be used as a tag. The page existed, but there was no built in way to find it without playing with the URL like I said in the above steps It'll be for a genre that isn't currently an option to tag on an artist page and yeah the page will have no albums or similar genres yet, but will still have the genre name listed
ArsMoriendi 01.10.25	But the highest number i saw that yielded an actual genre page is 255 (disco) so I only went to like 300 or so There could be ones in the higher numbers, but idk
ToSmokMuzyki 01.10.25	is there viking metal programmed?
