 * Comment: Per former nominations and deletions via AFD. I commend WP: SALT  Otuọcha   (talk) 00:58, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete and SALT if necessary. I voted to delete in the 2020 AfD for this band and my reasoning is exactly the same now. They have indeed released several albums and played many shows, but the reliable music media simply has not noticed. And again, "shared the stage with prominent musicians" is irrelevant if it was at large festivals or if they were the cost-saving local opening act. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 02:42, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete. I agree with Otuọcha and Doomsdayer: this band lacks significant coverage by multiple independent reliable sources (WP:GNG is not met); and it doesn't approach any of the alternative criteria at WP:NMUSIC. However, this is only the first recreation after deletion, which occurred over 4 years ago. I'm not sure this namespace is problematic enough to require WP:SALT. JFHJr (㊟) 17:00, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. Meets GNG, and I made some improvements. Eastview2018 (talk) 19:26, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete: AllMusic reviews are iffy for reliability, the rest are promotional pieces. This is the only mention of them I can find, I suppose it's a RS. I don't see much of anything else. Oaktree b (talk) 02:03, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete: strong delete, I can't find any real coverage of this band from reliable outlets online. InDimensional (talk) 13:54, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
