Another non-notable band. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 18:23, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A black metal band from Hawaii (!). Wow. When I thought I saw everything, there is always a surprise. Unfortunately though I think they are not notable for WP, I am doubtful of their notability. The sentences are also unsourced (for example, how do we know that their "Evil Never Dies" album was named the worst CD of 2006? Where's the source?) (Btw I checked out this band and I listened to some of their songs and in my opinion they deserve that "worst CD" award... :) But that's not the point here, sorry.) I searched "Magnum Carnage" through Google and I couldn't find anything besides the standard unreliable sites like databases, Wikipedia mirrors, trivial mentions/namechecks and stuff where the words are separated. So I came across stuff about the British hard rock band Magnum, the Spider-Man villain Carnage, the TV show Magnum, the Swedish death metal band Carnage, but there is very little coverage about MAGNUM CARNAGE. I have found some album reviews but they are featured on blog-like sites. The article also has a "multiple issues" tag which is not a good sign either. I searched for some of their albums but couldn't find anything besides databases, blogs and stuff where the words are separated (again). This is an underground band which makes no waves whatsoever even though they are active. They are among those I call the "underground of underground" because there is no coverage except in unreliable sites like blogs and forums. But no reliable media has ever noticed them. I have also found that this article has survived an AfD back in 2007, and it was kept for whatever reason. I actually think this band was never notable for Wikipedia. No coverage in reliable sources, no article. That's the rule. So I wonder how and why so many non-notable bands manage to stay on WP for such a long time. This article has also been sitting since 2007. Wow. Just wow. Sorry, I got carried away. To the point: yet another non-notable band. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 18:19, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Fails NBAND and the GNG. (And it's okay, GD100. There were a LOT of terrible Keep closes up until around 2008; the concept of notability -- as opposed to "It exists" was still evolving.) Ravenswing 01:55, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
