• Keep has an allmusic entry, 3 published albums, seems to pass WP:MUSIC --Pboyd04 17:30, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep for the same reasons I quoted on the band's latest album page. The deletion request was made by the same user who appears to have a bit of an interesting history of late. The band is notable, as is the album and the personalities involved. The album 'Ripple Rock' is sold and distributed by Mint Records in Canada and by Alternative Tentacles in the United States. The Album is not 'home-made' but is professionally recorded, printed, and pressed. The Evaporators are the main musical project of Nardwuar, who is a nationally known Canadian media personality, and has members from other well known Canadian bands. Check out the press kit at [1]. WP:MUSIC checks out just fine on a number of cases, the easiest of which involves the membership of John Collins.

• Keep, seems to meet WP:MUSIC. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 22:29, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - notable enough for me, I heard them in Canada in '96. --Sunholm(talk) 22:30, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Certainly meets WP:Music. CDaniel 17:19, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep, meets WP:MUSIC both for releases on notable indie labels AND repeated reputable press coverage; also notable (well, at least for Canadian indie music) individuals in band. Suspect a bad-faith nomination by a user who has a thing for deleting bands with a connection to Warren Kinsella. Ianking 13:33, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
