 * Weak Keep This is one of those occasions where a band I've heard of comes up at AFD, so I can offer some information. Despite being Icelandic and producing a lot of material in the language, Vök have broadly received coverage via English-speaking titles. That coverage has, in my view, been regular enough to qualify them for an article. Coverage includes a premiere at Noisey (Vice), two premieres at Stereogum and The New York Times. There's also lots of smaller mentions whenever Icelandic music comes up at certain titles, and they've been one of the main bands at Iceland Airwaves festival, covered by lots of reliable titles, like The Guardian. An understanding of Icelandic might help to establish whether they've had a major segment on Icelandic radio, which I would fully assume they have, but can't verify. There isn't a massive amount of coverage but I think there's enough to confirm that this band are notable. KaisaL (talk) 21:17, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
