Raised from an Egg
This actually sounds like a fun project, but alas, a couple of guys having fun sitting on a mountaintop doth not an encyclopedia topic make. Seems to fail WP:MUSIC - no album releases, no allmusic.com entry, no web presence, just a local band like many, many others -- Ferkelparade &pi; 14:27, 13 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete, fails WP:MUSIC. Jkelly 16:30, 13 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment This band seem to me like a lot more than just 'another local band'. If read into the article you can see without the source being bigheaded he has managed to describe a rather pioneering group. I have seen them play at the Make poverty history gig. Thier achivemnt was impressive alongh with others and made it into their my local paper (I have the article but not permission to print it yet). Please, patience is a virtue and websites do take time to build. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.69.125.144 (talk • contribs) 19:13, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep This article details an upcoming band who may not yet be known to everyone, but as stated in the article, this band is in fact a musical "movement", and although they have not yet released any albums (which you seem to believe is the only thing that quantifies a "band"), one is in fact in production (as stated in the article), on a small record label. Disregarding music because it does not fulfil your 'criteria' would be a shameful attempt to classify art. For example, the Arctic Monkeys last weekend played a sold-out gig to 2,000 people at the Hammersmith Apollo, although they, too haven't released an album. How many bands do you know that:
 * a) Didn't start "local".
 * b) Are as radical as this band? This is not just another 'local band', this is a very unique way of expressing music, one which has not been seen in quite sometime. I personally, am a follower of this band (I began the article) and am very intruiged by their musical style and persona. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Notch (talk • contribs) 08:16, 14 October 2005


 * Delete. Fails WP:MUSIC (see my comment at Talk:Raised from an Egg). --Wikiacc (talk) 19:16, 14 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep. I don't know anything about this band but their entry is a hell of a lot more amusing and well designed than most of the 'proper' band entries on this site. Have we really become a bunch of boring busy-bodies with too much time our hands? Let it stay, and if they don't come up with some stuff in the next few months we can reconsider. It has always been my opinion that Wikipedia needs to lighten up! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mapmaker (talk • contribs) 2:00, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep Comment. More importantly, the criteria apply to generic music bands. This isn't really a band (as the article states under 'opposition'), thus the criteria for a band are invalid. This is a new innovative way of looking at music, not an "album, album, gig, gig, single, EP, album, gig" band.They are unique and therefore the article should stay.

 * Oppose. Sorry, there's no way this user should become an admin. Whoops, was still on WP:RFA mode for a second there. Clear case of sockpuppet badvertising, and the inability to meet WP:MUSIC seals the deal. Strong Delete. Karmafist 07:51, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment you are a goon.(to all those who support delete) Stop harrassing this group of angelic individuals. I bet you spend all your time on wikipedia looking for articles to delete. I bet your real name is Gavin and your only friends are the cats you adopt when they happen to wander into your sqaulid bedsit, attracted by the stench of pot noodles. I bet the last girl you talked too was your mum who came around to drop of the clothes you got her to wash. I bet you can recite the entire script of neon genesis evangelon. I bet you're just jealous you didn't think of playing he guitar when you were young and free and still had hope that each new day would bring more than searching obsessively through the endless archives of wikipedia, folornley searching for something on which to exert what little power you have in life upon. I hope you get socks for Christmas. Good day to you sirs!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mapmaker (talk • contribs) 13:34, 16 October 2005
 * Please see No personal attacks. --Wikiacc (talk) 20:56, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * It isn't a personal attack! It's aimed at all those support delete. I bet you're just angry because your real is gavin. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.189.245.202 (talk • contribs) 20:11, 17 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment Yeh and I bet you all play dungeons and dragons, and whenever you meet your friends you compare/boast about how BIG your memory is on your computer, and you always have stories about how last night you were kicking this orcs ass when suddenly you rolled a 2 and you were decapitated, and you fantasise about hot elf chicks with their HUGE SWORDS, tight, revealing, impracticle leather clothing and over sized breasts, but deep down you know that you won't ever get a girlfriend at all. And its really sad that you actually know the rules of wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.93.21.4 (talk • contribs) 21:45, 17 October 17 2005
