Deathbringer (band)

Just another non-notable band on Wikipedia, nothing is new under the sun! GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 16:48, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

A progressive/technical death metal band from Belarus. The article was created by a user back in 2012 whose Wikipedia activity revolves around this band (he only edited the band's article and even added their link to the List of progressive metal bands article). So the COI is strong with this one. The sourcing of the article consists of sites that don't exist by now (their domain has been expired or the page is simply not available), social media, the site of their record label or incredibly trivial mentions (such as the Blabbermouth article where they are mentioned as support for the band Hate during tour). They have an article on ruwiki as well, but the sourcing isn't very good there either (for example, there are also a lot of social media pages, databases and unavailable/unreliable sites as sources). To date they have only released demos and one studio album. The article lists the reissue of that studio album separately (most likely to make it appear that they have multiple albums). I did a google search and I did not found anything reliable. The name "Deathbringer" is very common so of course when I searched with "Deathbringer band", I have mostly found stuff about other things named Deathbringer. So I looked up their sole studio album, "Homo Divisus" and the only things I found were the usual databases, streaming links, youtube videos, download and retail sites, lyrics sites and trivial mentions in context of the band (mostly on WP mirrors) This is the only album review I have found, and I am not convinced of this site's reliability (although I have used it numerous times). So to summarize: another underground, non-notable band who are not notable for Wikipedia. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 16:44, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
