I suggest adding Abraham band to S/PM . They're a post hardcore
quintet based in Switzerland formed around members of metal acts KRUGER
and NABOKOFF.
Debut album '' An eye on the universe'' will be released in january 2011. Links: http://www.myspace.com/abrahamband The track on MS are quite good. |

I don't know anything about the band and I don't mean to discourage anyone but post-hardcore isn't a metal subgenre. It's based off of hardcore elements with other alternative stuff thrown in.
------------- Lost respect for these archives when I saw Creed added, among other bands. Not going to be foruming here anymore. You can keep my reviews if you want. |

We have post-hardcore acts here like Converge, Burst and The Ocean, so if Abraham is in that vein I don�t see a reason why they shouldn�t be added. Depending on what elements of their sound are dominant, post-hardcore acts go to either metalcore or sludge/ post-metal. It�s always debatable if an act is more hardcore than it is metal, but that�s the team�s decision.
In my opinion most Post-hardcore acts include lots of metal elements and should be included here. The line is fluent and hard to define though. The line is drawn with hardcore punk though ( with a few exceptions). ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |

Well they have contract with PelAgic Records same as The Ocean and God is an Astronaut. I'm not familiar with post-harcore genre, but I think that they have enough elements of post-metal and alternative metal. If Cult of luna is here then Abraham should be here as well. |

Listening to some now, sounds like a fit for sludge/post-metal. |

Not sure if the sludge/post team evaluated them yet, but we will now.
