A band of no objectively provable notability. Guy (Help!) 09:42, 14 September 2015 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep I looked at the linked album articles. By doing so I found the following already linked:, and  at AllMusic and the Supreme Chaos review has multiple RSes. Also, AllMusic has a band bio. So just with that they clearly meet GNG let alone WP:MUSICBIO. All that is without performing an Internet search, which is stated by WP:BEFORE. , , , , , ,  and several at . Those were gleaned from the first fifty results of the Google search linked above. In short, this article and the linked album articles should be improved, but not deleted.

 * Weak keep as this seems acceptable coverage and I haven't even started searching myself. Pinging past commenters and .  SwisterTwister   talk  06:00, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't see a brief band bio (which isn't exactly "coverage", it's just a listing) in Allmusic as conferring notability, in the same way that Wikipedia doesn't consider a wine review in Wine Spectator to confer notability. That's the purpose of the publication, they review thousands of wines each year, so just about any non-notable wine will be reviewed eventually. I see Allmusic the same way. That said, while some of the sources Walter Gorlitz listed are ridiculous (directory listings, poster, etc.), there's a Billboard chart link, which does count for a lot and definitely meets WP:BAND. So yeah, keep and improve. ~Amatulić (talk) 17:16, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
 * keep per sources found by Walter above. -- Jayron 32 12:35, 27 September 2015 (UTC)
