Fails notability, poor/weak sources, heavy dependence on weak primary sources, unusable primaries cited for key information, all in all, not worth keeping. Acousmana (talk) 09:42, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Granted the article needs some work, but IMO there are reliable sources which can be added to support the topic. For instance, see mentions in NME and The Guardian. -- S.Hinakawa (talk) 21:20, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Comment How does it fail to meet notability? There are specific criteria, if the nominator or potential supporters could point to which criteria or even a single criterion they feel it fails, then discussion could be much better focused than it currently is.
