 * Comment: the "mass" refers to the US state of Massachusetts, so presumably this should be capitalized as "Mass" if the article was kept. Could probably be merged into Music of Massachusetts – there doesn't seem to be enough here to warrant a separate article. Richard3120 (talk) 14:07, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete: There's nothing TO merge here. Other than citing those two bands (each of which has their own extensive articles), all this article says is that the hardcore scene spread to various Northeastern cities.  It says nothing at all about the ostensible subject, and honestly is a Speedy candidate.   Ravenswing      15:44, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Outpatients aren't mentioned in the Music of Massachusetts article, that's the part that I suggested merging. If someone wants to just add their name to the list of bands in the "Alternative rock" section and then delete this article, that's fine by me. Richard3120 (talk) 15:57, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I added to the list as suggested by Richard. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 16:35, 24 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete - Probably written long ago by nostalgic fans who fantasized a "scene" that was made up of two remembered bands and maybe some others that have long since been forgotten. The articles for the two named bands already state adequately that they were from this geographic area. There is no evidence of a "scene" that received coverage in its own right. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (TALK&#124;CONTRIBS) 16:01, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
