An unsigned band of dubious notability. The article has been tagged since 2008 for possibly not meeting the GNG, and I've had little luck in establishing notability. It doesn't seem to meet any of the criteria as presented in WP:NBAND, and I can find no non-trivial references in reliable third party sources. All of the bands albums were self-released. About the only claim to notability the band has is the mention in a St. Louis newspaper, but I'm not sure if that alone is enough. Rorshacma (talk) 22:48, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. The Riverfront Times award/short article and the Vox article in the EL's are getting there in terms of notability, but I couldn't find anything else. Being marginally notable in Missouri doesn't seem quite enough. --Michig (talk) 20:19, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
