Only external note given to the article's subject is in the form of two reviews, one of which I cannot get to load at all and the other of which is a solitary website blurb. - Vianello (Talk) 16:30, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I declined the WP:CSD#A7 speedy deletion nomination, recommending that this article go to AFD, on the grounds that (a) there is a possibility of meeting WP:BAND criterion #5, having released two albums from independent labels, although it remains to be seen whether those labels are notable; and (b) there was a weak claim of notability in that one of the band's songs was featured in a notable video game, which disqualified the article from A7 deletion. ~Amatulić (talk) 00:00, 13 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I should have thought to mention that. Your input is appreciated! - Vianello (Talk) 00:06, 13 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. Their second album was released on Uprising Records, which does seem marginally notable, and the album was professionally reviewed at Allmusic [1]. That site also has a short biography[2], but apart from those and a review at Ultimate Guitar [3] (which may be user submitted), I can't really find any coverage in reliable sources that indicates meeting the criteria for inclusion set out at WP:BAND. If any more sources come to light then I might reconsider, but for now I think these guys fall just short of the bar. — sparklism ^hey! 13:29, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
