 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

The standards of inclusion for bands have changed since the 2006 deletion discussion that arrived at "no consensus" for this article. The previous AfD found a blurb in the Orlando Weekly and an interview as part of the segment and a bit of the subject for a The Legend of Zelda spot on MTV's "Top Video Games Countdown".

I only found one direct interview at a source from Destructoid that only situationally meets WP:VG/RS and the rest are a series of passing mentions that don't meet the criteria. If there was an argument to keep, it could be #12 from WP:BAND, but they weren't really the focus of the segment.

Would love your thoughts! Nomader ( talk ) 23:46, 15 March 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Star   Mississippi  01:53, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete - they don't seem to meet any of the musical notability standards - they're releases don't chart or meet the GNG, nor do they. Sergecross73   msg me  22:52, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
