Metal/punk[edit]

Metal/punk is a music genre combining metal and punk. Nothing links here. Let's delete it before anything does.—Wahoofive (talk) 04:49, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I tried to find something appropriate to propose a redirect, such as hardcore punk, Metalcore, or Grunge, but nothing seemed particularly appropriate. Also, the article asserts that punk and metal are seemingly disparate, yet from a brief glance at the punk pages, it does not seeem like that would be true, so I call the accuracy of the article into question as well.

Delete. An article on the crossover of metal into punk and vice versa might be useful, but I wouldn't call it a specific genre. Most bands that are influenced by both styles will call themselves "metal" or "punk" or (most likely) just "rock." Soundguy99 16:13, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep (or possibly merge with Metalcore). Accuracy may be imperfect, but can be improved. Musical genre is notable, especially if explanation and links expanded. Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters 21:24, 2005 May 13 (UTC)
