Editprotected

{{editprotected}} Could an admin or someone take that bit about all the members being Christian out of the lede, or at least reword it to specify that they're a self-confessed Christian band? Thanks. 205.200.18.71 (talk) 21:17, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article is semiprotected, not protected. Please use {{editsemiprotected}} to request an edit be made. To your original suggestion: What would be the purpose of doing this? Intelligentsium 01:21, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

{{editsemiprotected}} Because, as it is, the statement is useless. It's like saying that United States Congress is composed of humans of mixed racial background; relevant, but completely without use. Something like that doesn't belong in the lede. Saying that they're a Christian band, on the other hand, accomplishes a lot more. 205.200.18.71 (talk) 04:23, 26 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done Welcome and thanks for contributing. The sources say that it is (or evolved from) a Christian metalcore band, but that says nothing about the individual members, so I removed that sentence. Celestra (talk) 19:09, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Melodic Black Metal

Though I possess no source to prove this, I would simply like to point out that Underoath's early work, particularly the first two albums, contain a very noticeable Melodic Black Metal influence, arguably moreso than their more widely-known Melodic Metalcore elements, in terms of vocal style and instrumentation.

Thus, I recommend adding "Melodic black metal (early)" in the genre list. 71.218.224.193 (talk) 22:07, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Without a source, this comment is totally pointless. Go find a source, then we'll talk. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 22:23, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Neither "Metalcore", nor "Post-hardcore" are sourced. By your logic, neither of those should be there either. 71.218.242.36 (talk) 20:08, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
