PROD removed with absolutely no explanations aside to apparently simply drive by; I still confirm my PROD here. SwisterTwister talk 06:35, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. I listed 19 examples of coverage on the nominator's talk page (which they have now removed) after removing the prod - how exactly does that constitute "simply drive by"? That's 19 sources the nom's web searches somehow completely missed. The band concerned is obviously notable - albums on Polydor and Glitterhouse, coverage from Rolling Stone, The Independent, Les Inrockuptibles, No Depression, Encyclopedia of Popular Music, etc. etc. This editor's deletion nominations are becoming increasingly problematic and they are simply not listening. --Michig (talk) 07:00, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Allmusic has a bylined article on the band (now added as a reference), as well as short but bylined reviews of each of their albums, the first of which is reviewed as "Arguably the best of all the alt-country album efforts". Add to that The Independent review (which would have probably been bylined with initials in their style of the time) showing international attention, and I think there are sufficient sources for notability.

Keep Meets several bullets of WP:MUSIC. Chubbles (talk) 10:19, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per a review of the sources posted by Michig to nom's talk page in User talk:SwisterTwister#PROD removed from Hazeldine (and please stop!) and now copied to the article talk page: the band meets both WP:GNG as well as several criteria in the SNG.
