  • Delete – Featured on two, possibly three compilations (I can't find any record of the Flak compilation actually existing). The "untitled album" seems to have never been released. The EPs are self-released. The artist's website lists a couple of publications that have covered his music, but all links are either dead or lead to mags and blogs that are, to put it mildly, not notable themselves. The old listeners on last.fm rule of thumb test (less than 1000, with just one song that received more than 100 scrobbles) also doesn't fill me with confidence that this artist is notable or that further searches will result in me finding any significant coverage in non-English sources.

  • Delete - I have never heard about this guy but I decided to look him up. But I actually couldn't find anything that is about him (aside from a Spotify page which is not a notability inducing source). Since this is not the primary meaning of the word "unexploded", it makes the search extremely difficult since most of the results are about bombs and stuff like that. I searched with "unexploded band" but the results were not any better. I could not find anything. But maybe I just did not search properly. I will try again and maybe I find something about this guy. Update: I searched with "unexploded rock band" and I found pages that are about this project, but unfortunately, they are Google Play, Facebook, Discogs and Spotify pages. So no reliable sources whatsoever. The rest of them are still not about this. By the way all of these "sources" copy the Wikipedia biography. Update again: I searched for the EPs too. "Unexploded Where We Belong" did not bring any results that are about the EP. "Unexploded Venomlake" brought an itsy-bitsy bit more results that are about the EP but actually this EP is only mentioned in the context of Unexploded, in Wikipedia mirrors, the another was the official site of the artist. So there is no coverage whatsoever. It seems that nobody noticed this guy's music so he remained in the underground without any coverage. The Danish Wikipedia has no article on this either. So this is an unnotable music project. And to think that this page managed to stay here since 2010... GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 15:59, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
