That would be just one signal for the recommendation engine, given that you only named the playlist without any songs that probably weighed in quite heavily on the recommendations. Did it change after you added songs or kept suggesting metal songs?

Just tested it and yes, it keeps recommending metal even after adding a handful of obvious non-metal songs.
