[edit] Isocracy (band)

Likely fails WP:BAND in my opionion. Should possibly be a redirect to Green Day. Posting here to gain a consensus. No vote from me. Dipics 15:22, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Does not fail WP:BAND on a number of point including:

• Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such.
• Is cited in notable and verifiable sources as being influential in style, technique, repertory or teaching in a particular music genre.
• Has been a significant musical influence on a musician or composer that qualifies for the above list. Samiam and Green Day.

Iscocracy is one of the main bands covered in the book about the Gilman project: http://www.924gilman.org/, read up on Gilman at least half of the punk culture in america has been somehow influenced by Maximum RocknRoll and 924 Gilman Street.

• Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable sub-culture.

Also: Isocracy is linked at MRR, Gilman, Green Day, Samiam, Lookout Records, Al Sobrante, El Sobrante, etc.. Etc... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=isocracy&fulltext=Search ...... (Xsxex 15:32, 23 June 2006 (UTC))

• Weak Keep If some of the band members went on to bigger and better things, it should be noted in the article. Needs serious cleanup or delete it.Beaner1 16:16, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
