This band has released 5 albums in the past 17 years, and are one of the leading Christian Gothic Rock bands (which, admittedly, is a pretty specialized genre).

I plan on adding a discography and infobox to the article, to help demonstrate the band's significance. Foetusized 00:42, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

OK, content has been added to the article. Is the "father of Christian Goth" quote enough, or do I need to repetitively specify that this band was one of the pioneers of the genre? Foetusized 02:08, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

As far as notability, DAS meets category #5 under WP:MUSIC#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles as they has released four albums on three important indie labels with Wikipedia pages, as listed in the infobox. DAS probably also meets #6 as well, having shared members with several other notable Christan Rock bands which are listed in the article. Foetusized 02:42, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
