They've accomplished nothing - their entire catalog consists of one self-released EP. Although the article looks nice and appears to be well referenced, most of the refs appear to be of the self-published/fanzine variety. --Bongwarrior (talk) 22:30, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - WP:TOOSOON, this is far short of the standard of WP:BAND. JohnCD (talk) 22:53, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep WP:BAND Criterion#1 is fulfilled by Preston Leader, Syn, Freeza, and Beat Magazine refs. Criterion#11 is fulfilled by "All in Good Time", being played on both Triple J Unearthed and its radio stations. Only one criterion is sufficient to establish notability.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 04:35, 23 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete - Lacks the significant coverage independent reliable sources to establish notability. Of the sourcing in the article, the only one I'd count towards notability would be "The Beat". -- Whpq (talk) 17:01, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. Close. The Preston Leader is a minor local interest puff piece. The Beat piece is pretty good but is street press promoting the music scene. Not quite ennough for me. The Syn is just another band on the promotional circuit talking about themselves. Freeza is not an independent reliable source. Being played on Triple J is not rotation so does not satisfy #11. Probably too soon. duffbeerforme (talk) 10:35, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment: I hate the subjectivity of discussions like this, but I'm not inclined to disagree that they don't meet WP:GNG.  I like stumbling on these indie band AfDs because you can find some little unknown musical gems, like their tune "All in Good Time".  Hope they have a bright future.--Milowent • hasspoken  04:53, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
