[edit] Hyper rock

Appears to be dubious own research. I can't find any evidence of any existing sources providing any critical analysis of the term "Hyper rock". If not own research and is verifiable, then almost certainly non-notable BigBlueFish 17:45, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. I don't see it as a widely used term: [1]. PJM 18:46, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Original research, possible neologism. - Rynne 18:50, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
• KEEP well its a genre, i use it at school all the time, the NME uses it to describe Muse and there are more bands coming out like them —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.136.184.52 (talk • contribs).
• KEEP Bill Mike performed with his band, drummer Steve Goold and prolific bassist Chris Morrissey (Mason Jennings, Haley Bonar), and the trio formed a tight unit of deliriously fun hyper-rock"

• • Comment: Flashburn (talk • contribs) appears to be a "sockpuppet" of 86.136.184.52 (talk • contribs) though it's not worth the CheckUser to verify this.

• Delete. Not a common term at all. There seems to be some confusion between describing a band as "hyper rock" and actual genre terms. WesleyDodds 10:39, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Exactly. I have yet to see hyper used as anything but a descriptive adjective. I'd also be interested to see this NME citation, or a band that describes themselves as hyper rock. BigBlueFish 16:25, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

• KEEP Anyone see that program about the NME on the 10th march, BBC 2? in states that anyone can make up a genre, as they did - 'Camden horror' & 'Figgle' where made by non-musicians, but critics, one writer in the NME grouped together as little as 3 bands and stated they are a new genre, and this was accepted. This is the beauty of musical creativity and creation in general, anyone can do it. so from now on, with or without the 'law' of wikipedia, there is a new genre in the musical world known as 'Hyper rock' - bands in this catagory are mostly unsigned, apart from Muse. Unsigned ones include ones from my area - Zeitgueist, Hyperlight and Zero—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.136.184.52 (talk • contribs).
