The article is about a non-notable band and contains unsourced promotional content and links to promotional websites. The article does not contain inline sources, and the secondary sources used in the article are largely blogs entries and concert announcements that merely mention the band in passing.

Delete It seems like 15 years were not enough to achieve notability for this band. I have found an album review which could be the only decent source, but this site does not look good. Everything else I found were either the words separately/not in this band's context, or trivial/promotional stuff. Their live album is also up to Afd, that can go as well.

Delete - They got some regional news notice in 2009 after placing in a Battle of the Bands (e.g [1]), but otherwise this article is clearly dependent on the band's self-written biography and they have received little reliable media coverage. It seems that the members are still doggedly blitzing the typical streaming and social media sites even after years of band inactivity, and that is most of their Internet presence, DOOMSDAYER520 | TALK | CONTRIBS 16:10, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
