Genre[edit]

neaera don't play metalcore. they play melodic death metal. on the first record there were little hardcore influences, but the latest two are "pure" metal records —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.151.124.49 (talk) 15:37, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You seem so sure of yourself that you completely missed or ignored the citations provided in the article stating that Neaera is indeed a metalcore band. In fact one of those citations is from an interview with the band in which the band themselves states that they play metalcore. Wikipedia does not welcome personal opinions, so what you think the band plays is irrelevant, however, Wikipedia does welcome information cited from reliable sources. --Leon Sword 19:22, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Neaera did play some kind of Metalcore. But the last two releases are Melodic Death. This is no personal opinion. This is fact!

They didn't state they're a metalcore, but didn't care to be called like that. The singer once said, he doesn't think, they're metalcore anymore, but (melodic) death metal. Even the Metal Hammer Germany sais this is Death Metal. German Wikipedia sais Melodic Death Metal, too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.151.100.119 (talk) 12:56, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Updated to melodic death metal with citation. Metal Archives is a significantly authoritative site on band genre, representing majority opinion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.160.176.230 (talk) 10:49, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
