[edit] Deathrash

Deathrash (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

I have wondered about this one for a while, and with the discussion on the Talk page going incredibly slow i decided to put it up to the test. All Google references to Deathrash are about a non-notable band, making this neologism even less notable than that. Jimmi Hugh 23:15, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Strong delete as obvious neologism, and possible musical hairsplitting too. What's the difference between thrash and death metal anyway? Ten Pound Hammer • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 01:38, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete. I'm sure someone can point out some arcane reason why they think thrash and death metal are different, but since no reliable sources are specifically discussing this word it fails WP:NEO. --Charlene 02:38, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Well i actually feel there is a world of difference between the two genres... I wouldn't class Metallica or Megadeth as anything like Cannibal Corpse or Dying Fetus. As i mentioned on the Article page though, the softest form of Death Metal is just Thrash metal with slight Death Metal tendencies, there is no inbetween. -- Jimmi Hugh 12:33, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete, no references, and all the artists in the list belong to other genres as noted in their articles. Not convinced this genre exists, and as Jimmi Hugh says above, I don't quite see how death and thrash metal can "cross over". While the two are different, death metal minus all the complexities just gives you thrash, and the wording in the death metal article seems to agree with me there. - Zeibura (Talk) 13:54, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
