This band may not meet the standards of WP:MUSIC. ➥the Epopt 20:18, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep - According to the article they've got three albums, which means they pass WP:MUSIC. Jayden54 20:44, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Just having three albums is not enough. To qualify under WP:MUSIC by number of albums, an artist must have at least two albums released on a major or significant independent label. None of the record labels that this band is associated with has an article in Wikipedia, and one of those labels was founded by the band itself. That said, the group may qualify under some other WP:MUSIC criterion, and I may reconsider if evidence of that is found. --Metropolitan90 22:25, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete While they have released a number of records, none qualify them under WP:MUSIC. This may change, and if so the article can be recreated. They can fill out all of the red links at the same time!--Anthony.bradbury 22:54, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak delete The article claims that the band pioneered the hip-rock genre, which would make it notable. However, there isn't an article for hip-rock. If a (reliable) source can be found for the statement, then keep. ShadowHalo 08:51, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete "sold over 25 records worldwide"? add three zeroes, then maybe... ˉˉanetode╦╩ 08:20, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
