You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.200.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 16:45, 10 February 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Rogue Male''' are a British [[Heavy metal music|heavy metal]] band, formed in 1984.<ref name="Larkinindie">((cite book|title=[[Encyclopedia of Popular Music|The Guinness Who’s Who of Indie and New Wave Music]]|editor=[[Colin Larkin (writer)|Colin Larkin]]|publisher=[[Guinness Publishing]]|date=1992|edition=First|isbn=0-85112-579-4|page=239))</ref>

Rogue Male was the brainchild of [[Northern Ireland]]-born singer and guitarist Jim Lyttle,<ref name="Larkinindie"/> who had previously been in the [[Northern Irish]] punk rock band Pretty Boy Floyd and The Gems. Moving to [[London]] in the late 1970s, he decided to put together a band that would mix punk rock styles and aggression, with the more heavy metal sounds of the [[new wave of British heavy metal|NWOBHM]] bands of the time. The band signed to the UK heavy metal label [[Music for Nations]] and subsequently [[Elektra Records|Elektra]] in the US.,<ref name="Larkinindie"/> Shortly afterwards, the band were invited to appear on the ''E.C.T. (Extra Celestial Transmission)'' Heavy Metal music programme on England's [[Channel 4]] where they performed two songs live on 19 April 1985.

The first Rogue Male album, ''First Visit'', was written and arranged by Jim Lyttle, recorded by Jim Lyttle on guitar and vocals, John Fraser-Binnie on [[ guitar]], Phil Clark on bass, later replaced by Kevin Collier Bass, and Steve Kingsley on drums.,<ref name="Larkinindie"/> Kingsley was later replaced by [[Danny Fury]].,<ref name="Larkinindie"/> The album was produced by Steve James. Rogue Male toured the UK, Europe and the US in support of it. ''[[Kerrang!]]'' magazine in the UK gave the band several features, and a front cover article, they also got featured in several main rock mags throughout europe and Japan and were awarded Top International New Artist by number one French mag Enfer. "All Over You" was released as a 12-inch single. Their second album also written and arranged by Jim Lyttle ''Animal Man'', was released a year later.<ref name="Larkinindie"/> Rogue Male subsequently dropped their record companies and started legal proceedings for infringement and conflict of interest against them and their manager Martin Hooker (MFN). The 1980s incarnation of the band played their final show in late 1987.<ref name="Larkinindie"/> After a 6 year long protracted legal battle, Jim Lyttle won the copyright to all Rogue Male material, including the trading name Rogue Male.((cn|date=December 2023)) 

Both the original albums were re-released on the Polish label Metal Mind records in 2007. In an interview in the March 2009 edition of ''[[Classic Rock Magazine]]'', Lyttle stated that he had recently written, arranged, recorded and produced a new Rogue Male album. Released in 2010, this album guested [[Bernie Tormé]] on guitar on some tracks, with John McCoy on bass and Robin Guy on drums providing the rhythm section and was called ''Nail It''.  A new track, "Cold Blooded Man", appeared on the CD which accompanied the magazine. Original guitarist John Fraser Binnie subsequently rejoined the band and a new DVD entitled ''Liar'' was recorded and released. The album HARDCASE was released in 2023 on their own RM2K music label featuring all the original members, including Danny Fury and also session drummer Greg Brown (drums), recorded at Alvic Studio London and Rockfield Studio Wales. The first 4 tracks recorded at Alvic were produced by Steve James, and the rest at Rockfield were produced by Jim Lyttle.
