 * Comment: the band's sole album Feeling the Fall does have reviews from two reliable sources, AllMusic and Pitchfork, which means it passes WP:NALBUM. But I can't find any further information about the band itself – the note that they had reformed in 2012 and were working on new material was the sole edit on Wikipedia by "Jnallard" (note that the band's leader is J. Nicholas Allard), and there has been no further news since then, suggesting the band broke up again without releasing any further material. In which case, new sources are unlikely to appear in future, and the band's notability rests on finding articles in print media from a dozen years ago, or on their album's notability – if this article is deleted, Feeling the Fall should probably be deleted as well.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak Keep - I hate to admit it but they may have enough for a basic stub article. Richard is correct that their Feeling the Fall album got some reliable reviews, though that album seems to have been discussed in the media more than the band themselves. They have a basic AllMusic profile here: (though bizarrely, the photo is of the Kinks album of the same name). Here is a brief newspaper introduction: . I won't argue with anyone who votes otherwise, but a brief stub article has some merit, though it needs to be cleaned up. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 20:21, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Weak keep per . I added the source he mentioned here along with an external link to AllMusic, and I might add more since I'm in the process of a search right now. Nanophosis (talk) 03:44, 5 June 2018 (UTC)
