Looks to fail WP:NBAND, notability tagged since 2010. Going for the AFD route, not PROD, as I'm not too familiar with the art rock scene, but this isn't looking notable. Sources in the article are a primary source, a blog, and myspace. A further WP:BEFORE search brings up this. I found one more short piece in a "local bands" review, but everything else seems to be for band saws and tractors. Looks like one of those underground bands that never got coverage beyond the local level. Hog Farm _Bacon 00:40, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, too few releases on too insignificant labels equals no encyclopedia article. Geschichte (talk) 09:46, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: no evidence of anything approaching notability per WP:NBAND. While the band's name creates difficulties in searching for coverage, the "History" section suggests that this is exactly the kind of band which inspired the essay No one cares about your garage band. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 12:14, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per everyone above. COI also applies, as the article creator's Wikipedia activity revolved only around this band.GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 14:39, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
