  • DELETE: After reading the Wikipedia:Deletion policy and the Wikipedia:Notability (music) policy, I cannot see a reason for keeping this article on wikipedia.
    • Under Notability not even 1 of the 12 criteria are satisfied
    • No refs besides a link to Amazon's listing of the record
    • Their "record company" Rockstuff Records is a vanity publisher and "online music store of independent music."
    • No Amazon sales rank for 1 disc, the second is ranked at #550,666.
    • Article only advertises a cover band
    • Keeping it opens wikipedia as a vehicle for self-promotion--Mikerussell 15:52, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete per WP:CSD#A7. Not to mention strongly failing WP:MUSIC. --Bfigura (talk) 17:21, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. -Satori (talk) 19:42, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. Not notable in any way.Unlikelyheroine 00:26, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep There are 3 reviews, one from the LA Times sourced; though some keep deleting them. Gdavid3 20:09, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
I'm changing mine to keep. The article shows a quote from the LA Times, which apparently was deleted just prior to the article being nominated for deletion. It also shows a link to a youtube clip showing mention on a television news show. I've never heard of them, but they appear to meet the minimum guidelines for notability Gdavid3 20:20, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
