 * Keep, 2 albums on Pluto Records, passes WP:MUSIC,, . National tour, passes WP:MUSIC , .   Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 13:18, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable. Written by the band w/blatant COI, and comes off like an advertisement in some spots. I just did a Google search. "Imperial" "This Grave Is Our Poem" returns ONE result--Wikipedia. "We Sail At Dawn" has quite a bit more (the most of all of these, i admit), but I didn't see to many reliable links (mostly wikis, lyric sites, places to buy,etc). "Imperial" "Book of Villains"? 31 results, and none of which involve the band. "Imperial" "Dave Dupree"? 31 results. And so on.--CyberGhostface (talk) 17:23, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. This Allmusic review already noted above, and I'm surprised nobody else found this Alternative Press review. That's just about enough for a keep.--Michig (talk) 19:32, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per sources found by Esradekan Gibb and Michig, band meets notability criteria. Raven1977 Talk to me My edits  00:00, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
