Bee and Flower

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

per WP:MUSIC – unsourced article created and whose creator appears to have close connection with the subject. Amongst other criteria, the band has not been "the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself", nor do do they have "a single or album on any country's national music chart." Its only saving grace is having contributed one track to a film soundtrack to Scott Walker: 30 Century Man, and two others to films that don't have WP articles.

 * Weak keep. Several examples of coverage found from a quick Google search: Allmusic bio, and review, PopMatters, a few brief pieces (e.g. Village Voice, CMJ New Music Monthly), and a couple of non-English language sources that I am not familiar with:, . Not earth-shattering, but enough to support a short article I think, particularly with the likelihood that further coverage exists. The tracks on film soundtracks also don't hurt, and the fact that some don't have articles doesn't mean that they are not notable - at least one has a pretty impressive cast. --Michig (talk) 12:38, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
