Unencyclopedia-ish and somewhat POV. Rtyq2 (talk) 03:49, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Only three Google News hits from non-mainstream news sources. I'd almost argue that this falls under WP:A7. Either way, they fail WP:BAND and deserve deletion. DARTH PANDAduel 05:10, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete, article fails to establish notability as per WP:MUSIC. Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 08:38, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, band is signed to Virgin Records, a major label company. They seem legit enough to be on Wikipedia. M1ch1n00 (talk) 02:52, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. One of the criteria at WP:BAND is "Has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels." They only have one full-length album, so they're either one or two albums (depending on the stature of their indie label) away from that criterion. Nothing in the article shows they meet any other specific criterion or the general notability guidelines. —C.Fred (talk) 03:01, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, band has been featured in several issues of notable magazines including both the July '07 and February '08 releases of the Alternative Press Magazine as required by WP:BAND M1ch1n00 (talk) 03:19, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. No need to vote twice. DARTH PANDAduel 12:55, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, Almost all of the bands signed to Virgin Records have their own Wikipedia page. Virgin Records is part of EMI which is one of the four big record labels. This gives the band incredible notability, the band was able to get signed to the biggest record label only three years after forming. Rabidsoccerball (talk) 19:56, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Neutral, This band is on the verge of attaining notability, but as of right now this article does not comply with WP:MUSIC.--Baselineace (talk) 18:55, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: fails to establish notability as per WP:BAND. JamesBurns (talk) 01:50, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as no notable and failing WP:BAND. Being signed a record label, regardless of size, is not an indication of notability. Hundreds of bands get signed and disappear from view every year. Nuttah (talk) 09:49, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete After reviewing the available sources, I don't think the band is not notable now but may be in the future. Morbidthoughts (talk) 09:54, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
