Fails WP:MUSIC, in my opinion. Group has self-released an EP, studio album, and a live album. The studio album was later reissued via Rage of Achilles Records, a label which cannot be categorised as "one of the more important indie labels". Furthermore, "two albums" would need to be issued either via a major label or a more important indie label to qualify under that criteria. Some will merely point to the fact the group have an Allmusic bio as a reason to keep, although the WP:MUSIC criteria asks that a group is "the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician/ensemble itself and reliable", should it qualify under that specific criterion. Also, Allmusic only lists their sole release via a label. These published works would have to qualify under WP:RS. The group's official website is indefinitely offline, whilst their official MySpace page lists them as being unsigned. In addition, their official biography doesn't chart their history beyond 2002. Per the aforementioned reasons, I vote to delete. LuciferMorgan (talk) 00:38, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I can't find any reliable sources other than Allmusic (unless Metal Archives is notable), but the total lack of News hits pretty much has me convinced. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells• Otter chirps • HELP!) 00:45, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
