The result was delete all. While TenPoundHammer makes a good point about one of the members being in a notable band, WP:MUSIC notes that redirects and the like are generally sufficient for this purpose, and the discussion below indicates that the articles fail the verifiability requirement and do not independently establish notability. -- jonny - m t  02:56, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Article is good but fails WP:MUSIC notability requirements.  Blizzard Beast  $ODIN$ 19:57, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

 * You don't need to do a "delete per nom", you are the nom. I've also added a few related articles to this discussion. With that in mind, Weak keep; they do share a former member of Lordi, thus meeting criterion #6 of WP:MUSIC, but I'm not finding much in the way of sources.

 * Delete - Band is non-notable and thus fails WP:MUSIC. Why? . The only ghits reveal myspace, youtube, and metal community websites/encyclopedias. These are just not reliable.  Wisdom89  ( T |undefined /  C ) 21:54, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. Technically passes WP:MUSIC per TenPoundHammer  ~EdGl  23:18, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete last four one- or two-sentence articles as Two sentences do not an article make. Weak Delete on group article as there seems to be an attempt at some demonstration of notability, but the prose is more of a fan magazine than that of an encyclopedia. The addition of appropriate references and a more NPOV rewrite could salvage this article of a Finnish band. The connection with Lordi needs to be more explicitly stated in order to be closer to fulfilling WP:MUSIC. One cannot assert notability by connection with Lordi and downplay the connection at the same time. B.Wind (talk) 05:37, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - no European tours, no top 10 hits, no evidence of cultural influence, no verifiability per Ghits, per WP:MUSIC. Bearian (talk) 22:17, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:BAND, word. Mister Senseless&trade; (Speak - Contributions) 23:34, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
