The result was   delete. It sounds as if they could be notable. The problem is that no independent reliable sources have been found that support those contentions. No prejudice to recreation when/if such sources are found. Shimeru (talk) 06:05, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

Brandtson

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This is a band which has no sources to establish the general notability guideline for bands. Almost a week ago I noticed that the article Death & Taxes (album), which is related to this band, was proposed for deletion because it wasn't notable. The band hasn't won any awards or No. 1 singles or anything like that, so I think the whole thing should be deleted in my opinion.

 * Delete - I see nothing at WP:BAND that applies to this group, I've also searched for coverage in magazines or newspapers and haven't found anything beyond a brief mention that a CD was released. --  At am a  頭 23:26, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Brandtson does meet the notability requirements for them to be given their own wiki page. They have produced three albums (Letterbox, Fallen Star Collection and Dial in Sounds) with Deep Elms Records and two albums (Send Us a Signal and Hello, Control) with The Militia Group, both of these labels are prominent in the indie scene. Deep Elms Records has produced popular bands such as The Apple Seed Cast, Cross My Heart, Nada Surf, Planes Mistaken For Stars, Race Car Riot and Sounds Like Violence. The Militia Group has produced several bands that are even more prominent than Deep Elms Records. The Militia Group has produced Acceptance, Cartel, Copeland, The Apple Seed Cast, The Rocket Summer, and We Shot the Moon. These allegations can be verified at the websites of these record labels The Militia Group and Deep Elms Records. The releases with these labels coincides with the requirements for notability as stated on the Wikipedia Notability Music page.
