The Digital

On the face of it, this appears to be a notable band. However, I cannot find any sources to verify the claims in the article. For example, the claim the album is at number 48 does not agree with this source. I cannot find the single on this list either. There seems to be a lot of false positives due to the bands name but this is the only source I could find and it is trivial. There is also no record of the #2 single in this database. I'd be happy to withdraw this nomination if reliable, non-trivial sources are found. DFS454 (talk) 11:13, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - the bit about having a number 2 hit single is definitely untrue. Also, the album was released on 31 March (ie the day before yesterday) but has already peaked at number 48 on the albums chart (even though this week's chart won't be revealed until Sunday)?  That's clearly false too.  Their only two claims to notability having been proven false, there is nothing to support the existence of the article -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:35, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete With claims of charting shown to be false, fails WP:MUSIC. TheJazzDalek (talk) 13:32, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment If they really are 14-15 years old and the songs on their MySpace page are actually them, they're not half bad. Vocals sort of remind me of The Pooh Sticks. Not that that has any bearing on this AFD, just thought I'd share. TheJazzDalek (talk) 13:41, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete - claims are false, even if it exists band is not notable. I thought of adding their alleged album Rock On Dudes, but if we get rid of this the album can be speedied WP:CSD. JohnCD (talk) 12:39, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
