WP:CONTENTFORK and overlaps with List of death metal bands. Categorization of politics is irrelevant to music and even if necessary a stand alone list/article is not necessary. Formatting of the broader article is all that is needed. American death metal is also not a genre. Curb Chain ( talk) 01:03, 4 June 2013 (UTC) reply
Even if it were plausible that American death metal music was not itself a notable topic, WP:LISTN isn't relevant here anyway, but instead WP:LISTPURP, as this is a completely ordinary navigational list of articles grouped by nationality. postdlf ( talk) 15:22, 5 June 2013 (UTC) reply
On your belated return to your initial complaint about this list being subdivided by nationality, I'll only say that it's rather ridiculous to be challenging the very notion of identifying a band's nationality just because there might be a few more complicated cases involving band members of differing nationalities. That hardly invalidates the whole enterprise, and such classification is standard across band articles and categories: see Category:Musical groups by nationality and its 154 subcategories. There is nothing unique about the nationality of death metal bands that would apply to this list specifically. postdlf ( talk) 20:05, 6 June 2013 (UTC) reply
