Fails WP:BAND. Sum mer PhD (talk) 03:16, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment. I'm not finding much; just these so far.  Gongshow  Talk 03:52, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Two albums on Cornerstone RAS/Skunk Records. Also covered in the books Visual Vitriol and American hardcore: a tribal history.--Michig (talk) 14:55, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment - Help me out here: Skunk obviously isn't a major label. Yes, they a had "a history of more than a few years" but as to their "roster of performers, many of whom are notable"... it looks like most of them were not notable. - Sum mer PhD  (talk) 00:16, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It looks to me like most are notable. The guideline only asks for 'many' being notable.--Michig (talk) 09:13, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment - The only Skunk artists who clearly isn't notable is Corn Doggy Dogg & the Half Pound, which has since moved on to Long Beach Records; however, CDD&THP's frontman Todd Zalkins is arguably notable due to his bestselling drug addiction memoir, Dying for Triplicate. --JohnnyLurg (talk) 09:59, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment The article claims that this band were best known for their work with SST Records however the article makes no mention of this band. They really do not seem like they were ever a notable outfit. Recording 2 albums is not much of an achievement, but recording two popular albums is. I get the impression that this band were never popular. --Salimfadhley (talk) 00:09, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

 Weak keep per WP:MUSIC 5 - SST Records and Skunk Records both meet the criteria for independent labels, regardless of how important (or otherwise) this band's role was in their respective catalogues. Some good third party sources would really be useful here. ✤ Fosse 8 ✤ talk 10:08, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:MUSIC and per some book sources such as the above cited "Visual Vitriol" and "American hardcore: a tribal history", plus "Not like you: A history of punk subculture in Long Beach, California", "The Redneck Manifesto" and several volumes of "Maximum rocknroll".
