The result was No consensus defaulting to keep. It would be a good idea to put the references cited in this AfD into the article. Tyrenius 23:56, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Speedy declined. Despite multiple albums that sold in the hundreds (not a typo), it still fails WP:MUSIC, WP:N, WP:BAND, and WP:V. Jauerback 16:31, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep meets WP:Music. Has been on international tours and has released many albums. --Djsasso 17:38, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as written, with no independent references, it's a delete. I found one review on Pitchfork. The other Web mentions seem insignificant. If someone comes up with better references I'd reconsider. Without proof of international touring they have no chance. MarkBul 17:47, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:MUSIC - albums selling in the hundreds is not notable. Carlossuarez46 18:44, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Oooooh, sales in the hundreds! Contact Billboard Magazine immediately, it's number 1 with a bullet! OK, more like number 451,908 with a lead weight. Totally non-notable. Realkyhick 20:02, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - I can't track any decent refs indicating that they're doing enough to generate notability right now. A couple more albums selling better might help. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:29, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep meets WP:Music. Toured internationally, coverage in Wire, Terrorizer, Decibel, among others. Last Alien8 release charted in the Top 10 of the Metal Charts on Canadian college radio charts: http://www.chartattack.com/charts/specialty/metal/oldtopten/2007/0413.txt 74.99.227.236 02:44, 31 August 2007 (UTC) — 74.99.227.236 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Strong Keep, has anyone actually bothered looking for sources? The IP is absolutely right. And in answer to your mockery of the 'hundreds' of albums sold; this is ambient doom metal, of course the albums aren't multi-platinum. It has been covered three times in Decibel magazine and here in Terrorizer, two of the biggest magazines in the heavy metal world. That satisfies the primary notability criterion alone, without question, but, on top of that, we have Pitchfork Media reviewing them, twice, and significant mentions in other less famous ezines.
