Seems to lack evidence of notability, googling doesn't offer much in support of their importance. magnius (talk) 14:20, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. Notable indie band with two albums released. Also, a Google search on their name gets over 100,000 results, given that there's not going to be anything else coming up for their name I can't really see how that doesn't support their importance (100,000 mentioning a band is quite a lot).

 * Keep. Pretty obviously notable from Google and Google news searches, and the coverage indicated by the reviews on their first album's article (e.g. The Guardian, Drowned in Sound) give a strong clue to the band being notable.--Michig (talk) 07:53, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I see a lot of google hits, but how many of them are not MP3, YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Lyrics, Tabs, blogs and forums?. If they are notable, where are the references from reliable sources which allow readers toverify their claimed notability (UK and European tours, a UK number 8 single)? Some chart positions for their own singles and albums would be useful too.  Astronaut (talk) 17:27, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
 * How about, for starters, a biography from The Encyclopedia of Popular Music syndicated at the NME site, review from The Guardian, review from Drowned in Sound, review from Music Week, this from The Independent, and this from various Lancashire newspapers? And this from Allmusic.--Michig (talk) 18:11, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I haven't checked what they say, but some of them (NME, Guardian, Independent and perhaps thisislancashire) certainly seem to be from reliable sources. Why are they not supporting the claimed notability in the article?  Astronaut (talk) 21:53, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Because nobody has taken the time to search for these sources before and add them to the article. Feel free to add them if you're inclined to improve the article.--Michig (talk) 05:51, 10 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep per Michig's sources and WP:BEFORE which says "If the page can be improved, this should be solved through regular editing, rather than deletion." --JD554 (talk) 06:52, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per the sources described above. Meets WP:MUSIC. sparkl!sm hey! 11:14, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
