Looked up the site and it seems like they also don't have Between the Buried and Me or Protest the Hero so it seems like it's one of those "exclusionary to be pretentious and no other reason" kind of sites

They're great at finding new bands as long as the bands are properly "metal," but they arbitrarily exclude any genre that includes the term "core" which seems like a miss to me.

They have a pretty narrow definition of metal I don't always agree with (like cocktail and ball torture missing), but I'm sure glad it's not flooded with -core bands.
