Beasts (band)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I turned down a WP:CSD for this band, as I think they're a step up from the typical WP:GARAGE fodder that frequently gets marked for CSD. There are claims to be signed to a record label, supporting several notable bands, and appearances in magazines with national distribution such as Kerrang! I'll be charitable and say there is potential for them to release an album, and for it to chart, based on the current coverage. However, speculative prediction is no reason to have an article on Wikipedia. Ritchie333 (talk)  (cont)   10:33, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - NN band lacking GHits and GNEWS of substance to support notability.  red dog six  (talk) 14:05, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete -- Does not appear to meet WP:BAND criteria, despite some brief mentions in (some of the) magazines listed. Most of the first half of the article is unsourced biography.  &mdash; Gaff  ταλκ 14:36, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
