Is Napalm Death AI?
No — Napalm Death is a real band.

Everything else we checked
- Live shows 15 shows listed at 15 venues, 2 of them upcoming. A generated act does not book venues and play them.
- Back catalogue Releases go back to 1987, before generative music tools were usable.
- MusicBrainz Catalogued on MusicBrainz, active since 1982, GB, group. See the record
- Audience 406,367 followers — people who chose to follow, not just listeners a playlist delivered.
- Release pattern 45 releases spread over 36 years or more — a normal working pace.
- Presence elsewhere We hold no website, Bandcamp or social links for this act — though we may simply never have collected them.
Some of these checks may look inconclusive on their own — a band can be missing from MusicBrainz or release quickly. They do not change the answer. The gig history settles it.
