 * I see a Guardian article about them, as well as a Twitter account and Facebook, but I don't think it's enough to be notable yet. Delete per nom. Big  top  みんな空の下 (トーク) 05:19, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Strong Delete Clearly fails WP:BAND. The band is really new, and has only released 1 single and 1 EP. Where is the album. No notability whatsover.scope_creep (talk) 18:17, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep Charting satisfies wp:music, (wp:goodcharts). Charting is also reported in  Some coverage is shown above and there is a little bit more in  and a very short review in . duffbeerforme (talk) 11:10, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep An album, called 'Colours', is being released in September 2010. Very popular in the Netherlands. Although they may not (yet) be recognised worldwide, I personally don't think that worlwide recognition is a requirement for being listed in a Wikipedia article. There are children's bands out there with less recognition than these guys. (talk) 8:56, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. I think the press coverage in the article and in Google news archive is enough for WP:GNG. (Also, I'd heard of them independently of Wikipedia, which isn't exactly strong evidence of notability, but it predisposes me to thinking they pass the "smell test" for notability.) —David Eppstein (talk) 05:00, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * This would be the valid G News results, yours is misleading C T J F 8 3  chat 16:21, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, no. Your link only has one story about the band, The Daily Star 30/7/2010. The first few hits on my link lead to four different articles about the band: The Daily Star again, two from The Sun 14/8/09 25/8/09 and one from The Guardian 7/6/2010. So in your attempt to make your search more focused you also lost a lot of relevant material. Don't ask me why, what you tried looks reasonable to me, I'm just reporting what I see. It's true that the "about 96" hits Google claims to have in my search is far from the truth — it's really only those four — but it's the four news stories I was referring to in my keep comment, not the total number of hits. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:58, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep Clearly passes point 1 of WP:BAND with significant coverage in reliable sources independent from the subject, which is essentially the same as WP:GNG. Bigger digger (talk) 21:58, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
