No evidence of satisfying Wikipedia's notability guidelines. The article was subject to a deletion discussion in February 2014, which attracted very little participation, and was closed as "no consensus", but there were really no arguments for keeping which stand up to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines; the creator of the article and an IP editor both claimed notability on the basis of the recording being on a notable label, but notability is not inherited from association with a notable company. Neither in the article's cited sources nor anywhere else that I have seen is there any evidence of satisfying Wikipedia's notability guidelines.

 * Delete None of the sources appear to be WP:RS, they are simply blogs, wordpress sites, event listings or fan made sites with no editorial oversight. Me5000 (talk) 15:45, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - I think a couple of the current sources are decent, and I've found the following additional sources:
 * Preview: Cancer survivor, Jim Semonik, reinforces industrial music revival
 * Interview: REIN [FORCED with Jim Semonik]
 * Jim Semonik: Cancer Crusher, Electronic Savior
 * Local man's music helps cancer patients (paywalled) pdf copy
 * Jim Semonik promotes the local industrial scene, despite battling cancer
 * That last source is more about Jim Semonik, who appears notable enough to have his own article. A few other options would be to create that article and redirect this to it, or create a single new article for the entire series, rather than trying to have separate articles for each volume. —Torchiest talkedits 12:53, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The last option, I suggest - David Gerard (talk) 06:59, 3 September 2015 (UTC)

 * ,, I just wrote up the worst stub in the world using three of the listed sources. Let me know what you all think. JamesBWatson, , you too--I'm inclined to close this as merge if that's cool with y'all. Oh, please improve the article while you're at it. :) Drmies (talk) 20:17, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
