A band that doesn't seem to pass any of the requirments of WP:NBAND. At first, the band's credentials may seem to pass the GNG, but upon actually looking into it, I find most of it suspect. To begin with, I can not find a single reliable source to back any of these claims up at all. The only time I see this band mentioned at all are either personal sites, mirrors of this article, or the bands own press releases. Many of the other claims to notability mentioned in the article also just don't pan out. It says how they were put into rotation on multiple radio stations. However, these are all local stations, and WP:NBAND states that they must be put on rotation at a national level. They claim to have been in the soundtrack for a movie, but this movie was a completely unnotable film. The article was nominated for deletion once previously, however the nominator almost immediately withdrew the nomination before any sort of consensus could be reached. Since I feel that the nomination has merit, I went ahead and re-nominated it. Rorshacma (talk) 19:46, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Most of the sources are not independent WP:RS and the listed web links are connected to this band in some way. --Artene50 (talk) 19:08, 22 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete - I see no reliable sources covering this band in significant detail. I was unable to get the Omaha City Weekly article from the references to load, but regardless, one article in a local weekly paper isn't sufficient to establish notability.  I also note that a chunk of the article is identical to this band profile.  I don't know who copied who, but the wording is highly promotional, as is the entire article. -- Whpq (talk) 16:27, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - lack of WP:RS. Many things are unsourced and I cant find enough sources online.  →TSU tp* 20:40, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
