Band apparently fails notability criteria for WP:BAND or WP:GNG. Article has been tagged since 2009 for lack of any reliable sources and my recent search uncovered no substantial coverage -- only Wikipedia mirrors or insubstantial mentions. (Previous PROD was removed without addressing the issues, so I've brought this to AFD.) —  Cactus Writer (talk) 17:05, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - They appear to be a non-notable group, Google News found this minor review and Google News archives also found this Seattle newspaper article suggesting that they were a local band so it's not surprising that there is little coverage. Google News archives also provided this event listing. Google Books found radio airplay listings including this one. The article mentions that they received "great popularity" in Japan so it is possible that additional sources may be Japanese. SwisterTwister   talk  20:46, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Searching for sources brought similar results as Twister has described in detail, article fails WP:GNG. Article is from 2007 with still no sources, despite one author was active on it the last days (same author got seven A7 or G12 warnings in the last six days - fan or former band member?). Article has constant traffic, but this amounts similar to the traffic on Brodie (disambiguation), also Brodie is a given name, surname and a name for geographical objects. --Ben Ben (talk) 18:41, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete sources are of insufficient quality and quantity to establish notability. Fails the WP:GNG. Vcessayist (talk) 02:02, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete — Fails WP:GNG, even in Japanese. Japanese sources are readily available, but I've found exactly zero reliable ones. Livedoor blogs, announcements, and the like. I couldn't say they're any closer to notable in Japan than anywhere else. JFHJr (㊟) 02:52, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete: Lack of coverage in reliable secondary sources. Also delete dependent article Split With Glasshead. --IllaZilla (talk) 15:05, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
