No significant coverage of the band to be found anywhere. The article only relias on primary sources. The only argument for notability is that their albums were published by a notable indie label. In my opinion not enough to meet notability criteria. Broc (talk) 18:33, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

'Weak keephaven't done a full search yet but did find an AllMusic staff written bio here together with album reviews here, here, here, and here, Atlantic306 (talk) 00:09, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Atlantic306: one single review still does not make the subject notable, as it is not covered by multiple reliable sources. Unless we find additional sources, I think the page should still be deleted. --Broc (talk) 22:19, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
- There are four album reviews at AllMusic but I agree more is needed, Atlantic306 (talk) 13:36, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Daniel (talk) 22:04, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
- Keep moving to full keep in view of these additional sources: Pitcfork here and here, San Diego Reader here, Exclaim here and here, PopMatters here, and here and Denver Post [here to go with the four AllMusic sources. The music specific sources are listed as reliable at Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources. Overall there is enough coverage to pass WP:GNG in my view Atlantic306 (talk) 20:10, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for finding this sources! I would agree that it is sufficient coverage to fulfill WP:GNG. Would you like to move the sources over to the article, so that the effort was not in vain? Broc (talk) 11:49, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- Wow a band with 6 LPs under their belt (https://rateyourmusic.com/artist/gogogo_airheart) isn't 'notable' enough for Wikipedia. This dude (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Hulewicz) produced less (and considerably worse) music, but no one's taking him down. 2A00:79E0:11:370:692B:E9CD:2888:94E3 (talk) 11:37, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
- Let alone WP:OTHERSTUFF, Hulewicz recorded over a dozen albums between 1969 and 2013, a way longer and more productive career than that obscure and short-lived punk band. He was a Meritorious Activist of Culture, an Order of Polonia Restituta Knight's Cross and a Gloria Artis Medal recipient. He is featured in books about the history of Polish music. If your argument was intended to help the band, it is not. Cavarrone 09:25, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, passes WP:GNG, per the sources identified by Atlantic306. SailingInABathTub ~~🛁~~ 12:07, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
