Hiiiiiii Mr Spotify, I am a big fan of the plattform, I listen normally 80s heavy metal and you have a big library BUT you do not have the best band of the 80s Heavy Load is there any way you can add it to the library it would make me soooooo happy

Hey @quf6who6-o_n, thanks for writing!

I'm also a big Spotify fan, but unfortunately, missing or unavailable music is almost always a decision by the artist/label to withhold the content from Spotify.

Sometimes it's temporarily unavailable while they sort out legal issues or correct metadata, in which case it'll be back up as soon as they resubmit it to Spotify. While it might be a good idea to contact the label directly and ask why the music isn't on Spotify, you can also use Twitter and Facebook to ask the artists themselves.

You might also be interested in supporting this idea, which suggests a simpler method for requesting albums missing from Spotify.

Let me know if you have any other questions 🙂

I am truly sorry but im afraid that is up to the artist/band to have there music on Spotify.

It has to do with the label.
