My Calm // Your Storm

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Contested PROD. Non-notable album from a notable band. Unsourced since December 2009 (probably earlier) and I can't find any. This is the Jesus Freak Hideout entry. No review. AllMusic doesn't recognize the album let alone have a review of it. Finally Cross Rhythms, who want lots of staff reviews because they're trying to sell the albums too, don't review this one. So, I'm sorry that does not completely buy that this isn't notable, I don't see it at all. Walter Görlitz (talk) 03:06, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete if there's simply no better improvement. SwisterTwister   talk  05:35, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. I can't find anything reliable about it online. Perhaps there might be something in an old issue of CCM Magazine, but even that would only be one source. /wia /tlk /cntrb 20:35, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Note Sadads added which offers a one-paragraph mention of the album. Walter Görlitz (talk) 02:12, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep album appears to be the debut of a notable band, with significant coverage in pre-internet sources, such as the one I added to the article. Moreover, there are significant mentions of the importance of such articles, such as . Strong suspect of WP:Systemic Bias in the sources that we have available at hand. Sadads (talk) 02:13, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
 * We apply the same standard to all albums by all subjects. Look at Amy Grant (album), Daniel Amos (album) and First Hand (album). All pre-date the Internet and all have been reviewed at AllMusic because there is no question about the notability of the album or the subject. This album was an indie release and just like many bands' indie releases, is not notable. When it initially stated that it was from Warner Alliance, I expected to find more written about it, but the source you added cleared that up instantly. I also just checked the Encyclopaedia of Contemporary Christian Music (2001) and in its one-page entry on the band (what I qualify as notable) it only lists My Calm/Your Storm in the list of releases. It offers no details, which means that the editor's sources CCM Magagzine, Harvest Rock Syndicate and other publications didn't have anything on it. Walter Görlitz (talk) 02:20, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Correction, it mentions the album (and its predecessor) without naming them: "The group had already sold 25,000 copies of their privately distributed independent albums." There's also similar information at http://www.connectionmagazine.org/archives_old/archives/2001/jan2001/storybehindsong.htm . However, that sort of passing information does not qualify as RS and could be incorporated in the band article. Walter Görlitz (talk) 02:29, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep album appears to be the debut of a notable band - as above - I my view that makes it notable. :: Kevinalewis  : (Talk Page) /(Desk)  08:22, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Per WP:NALBUMS, album notability is not inherited from notability of the artist. /wia /tlk /cntrb 16:02, 20 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Actually, according to the sources, it's their second indie release. Walter Görlitz (talk) 12:53, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the band. There's really nothing here other than a tracklisting. If there isn't anything more to say then it can be covered within the article on the band. --Michig (talk) 10:33, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete or Redirect. Nothing to show the notability of this album.  Onel 5969  TT me 23:08, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
 * delete - poorly sourced. belongs as a one liner in the article about the band as per above. DangerDogWest (talk) 04:48, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
