 * Keep - definitely notable. The reference issue can be solved. AfD is not a clean-up or request for references tool. --BabbaQ (talk) 18:07, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - There is a reference to the fact that one of the band's albums peaked at no 7 at the Swedish album chart, which ought to be sufficient to establish the basic notabilty. /FredrikT (talk) 12:11, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep I have added now reference from very good sources: For example Nojesguiden, GSO, Göteborgs-Posten], Blixten. The latter also quotes from reviews from reputable sites. For example Gaffa gives 5/6 to the band. For a very recent live concert see here By the way, I don't find AfDs as misplaced, but rather a needed opportunity and incentive to do the necessary homework and to add relevant references to articles. So in a strange kind of way, AfD requests help solidify articles rather than delete them in a frenetic bid by editors like me to try to save the articles concerned in the very little time we are allowed for re-editing articles we had started so lovingly years back and had overlooked later on never having had the chance of returning to them. So me I treat AfDs as wake up calls. Of course another side effect is getting to the catalogue of the band concerned. In this case just take a look at one of their biggest hits "Caligula" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2oAtHCjco4 Absolutely enchanting! Here's also an acoustic version of same with classical influences https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_VgWThddrw So thanks Mdann52. Much appreciated. werldwayd (talk) 15:10, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
