 * Keep. Clearly notable band that has released many albums on labels that are easily big enough for WP:BAND #5 and has recieved plenty of coverage, e.g. Allmusic (see also reviews), Classic Rock, Canoe, Arizona Republic, PopMatters, The Encyclopedia of Popular Music, etc.. In the absence of any sensible deletion rationale or attempt to follow WP:BEFORE, I think this could be speedily kept.--Michig (talk) 11:58, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Speedy keep. As others have said, notability requirements were met a long time ago. Curious though, why do you think this band fails notability guidelines?Mrix1985 (talk) 22:03, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
