Keep and rewrite article. Have found significant coverage sufficient to pass criterion one of WP:BAND and WP:GNG [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], and [7]. I will incorporate these an rewrite the article tonight unless someone beats me to it. J04n(talk page) 18:53, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They have a bit of buzz, but have gone no where in 5 years, no one listens to them [8], a self published CD and a few reviews is not enough for notability. Ridernyc (talk) 19:02, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:BAND, according to the article their music is self-released. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 19:03, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Per J04n. Joe Chill (talk) 21:04, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, looks like sufficient coverage to me. Polarpanda (talk) 21:55, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - the newly located sources look sufficient and I trust J04n to improve the article accordingly. DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 00:10, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
note: The article has been completely rewritten incorporating features from unquestionable reliable sources (Village Voice and PopMatters) as well as several other lesser sources. BTW an AfD tag was never placed on the article after the CSD was declined. J04n(talk page) 03:11, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per the above sources which have been incorporated into the article. Subject passes WP:BAND. Gongshow ^Talk 07:27, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
