  • Delete appears to fail WP:MUSIC. No independent reviews cited, and all music produced thus far appears to have been self-released. --Bfigura (talk) 23:56, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ELIMINATORJR 00:00, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - At first glance they do appear to satisfy WP:MUSIC but if you look closer their album releases are actually "EPs", they charts they refer to are MP3 download charts. All their releases are via online sources in MP3 format. There doesn't appear to have been any "tangible, hold in your hands" releases. Although they state they did local and European tours there are no details, and more importantly, nothing to back it up by way of 3rd party references. There are no independent reviews or citations listed. Furthermore, the article doesn't meet WP:MOSMUSIC. --WebHamster 14:57, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete The article provides no references to prove notability or support any of the statements given. It does however, link to the band's website 3 times. That plus sentences like: "Specimen-X was renowned for the intensity of its live performances, diversity in songwriting, and lyrics and performances themed around the perils of technology and social commentary." make it seem promotional as well.

  • Comment There are album stubs linked to this page. They are just track listings, and should be deleted if the band page is deleted. (note: I submitted this AfD as MarkinBoston above - I need to figure out my password) MarkBul 01:39, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
