Looks like a badly written and poorly sourced promo piece for their 2017 EPs. No evidence they ever made it into the charts. Fails WP:GNG. The Banner talk 02:07, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • They were Malaysian based underground band, and of course they never make it to the international charts and such. The were only recognised by Malaysia citizens who are involved in the underground culture and by a few of Singaporean and that's all. Of course you can't find anything about them in the NYT or Google. However I will try to provide the scan copy of articles and interview with them as the new sources. - Fansuri 01:40, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - The article's creator's words pretty much state why the band isn't notable: "They were Malaysian based underground band, and of course they never make it to the international charts and such. The were only recognised by Malaysia citizens who are involved in the underground culture and by a few of Singaporean and that's all. Of course you can't find anything about them in the NYT or Google." Of course using Google hits as a sole source for establishing notability is a bad idea, but my point is that coverage for the band is indeed lacking; in fact, I couldn't seem to find anything about the band online at all, most of what I could find were for completely unrelated bands with the same name. Assuming good faith, given that the band's activities began before the internet became mainstream in Asia, it's possible that offline coverage could exist; indeed, the article cites a number of magazine articles. I'm willing to change my !vote if excerpts of these sources could be found and are deemed to be reliable. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 08:18, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm reluctant to vote because there's so little I can see. How does an article only 11 days old have so many dead link references? I'll look again in a few days in case there's more to look at. Gab4gab (talk) 21:19, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Group seems to have no coverage by reliable sources. What can be found is about members activity in other group. Fails WP:BAND. Gab4gab (talk) 20:30, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
