Black Oxygen

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Independent band that has put out two albums. Only claim to notability is they opened for some larger bands a few times.

News search returns a single hit for a tour announcement. Web search turns up some blogs that do not appear to meet WP:RS Ridernyc (talk) 07:44, 28 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep. A single that charted satisfies WP:BAND. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.32.91.1 (talk) 12:16, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
 * It only passes WP:BAND if it is verifiable. Unless you can verify that chart position, it can't pass the guideline. Ritchie333  (talk)  (cont)   10:40, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. Might be a case where WP:USUAL applies, as the band is early in its career. If they have songs that chart later on, and sources that confirm this, then an article might be appropriate. But relying on one of their singles being on charts doesn't work when there is no source that shows that single on the charts. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 21:50, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep - While I'm having problems locating a source verifying that "Take it to the limit" charted, (all their previous charts appear to be locked behind a paywall), their newest single, "American Dream", is currently sitting at #48 on the Mediabase Active Rock chart, which means it's in rotation on Clear Channel stations, satisfying BAND 11 and 2 in one shot.

 * Keep per the chart success found by Grandmartin11, which satisfies WP:BAND. Ritchie333  (talk)  (cont)   15:19, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
