As an adjective coupled with a noun, extreme music is a common enough expression. So too are good music, mild music, and stupid music. I was not able to find anything that suggests extreme music is anything more than just an expression that different writers use to refer to different things in different context. There are three external links provided in the article. The first two are sites that are devoted to extreme metal music. They do not cover avant-garde jazz, new complexity, breakcore, noise rock or any of the other non-metal music that this article includes as "extreme". The third external link is a "Malaysian Independent Music Portal" and has little relevance to this article, let alone any reliability. We already have an article on extreme metal, an umbrella genre that has been the subject of published academic books. The same cannot be said of this "extreme music". This article is nothing more than original research. As far as I could tell by browsing through the article's history, there has never been a single citation to any source. It has been nearly two years since someone slapped a template asking for sources but none has been provided. --Bardin (talk) 17:42, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete as WP:OR. The only point I would make about the nom is that if one were to try and forge a definition, "music covered by Terrorizer" is not an awful one; the magazine may be primarily extreme metal but also covers a certain amount of industrial, noise rock and out-there electronica. But realistically, this could never be turned into a coherent, NPOV article. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 21:33, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
