[edit] Gorgon (band)

- Keep - the band is Japanese and doesn't have a whole lot of US press but is known in the Metal community. They have a large amount of singles and some splits with Sabbat, another well known (in the metal community) Japanese band. BeastmasterGeneral 17:10, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

- Delete. Verifiability is an issue for this article which does not cite any reliable sources. Stifle (talk) 22:42, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

- Comment This is a Japanese band and much of the press on it is likely to be in Japanese; can anyone provide press from Japanese magazines about the group? Also, do they have an article on the Japanese wiki? Chubbles (talk) 05:21, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete I was not able to find much mention of them in English. They have not released any full length studio albums despite being in existence since 1995. Seems to be too underground to merit a place on wikipedia. No prejudice if someone can provide sources in Japanese per the request of Chubbles. --Bardin (talk) 11:43, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - per WP:MUSIC, this band simply not notable. The article's creator BeastmasterGeneral even tried to add some reliable sources to the article but the best he came up with was Rockdetector.⇨ EconomistBR ⇦ Talk 03:33, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
