~~Article about a band that implies only WP:ONEEVENT notability.~~ Zakhalesh (talk) 14:01, 20 February 2011 (UTC) Oh dang, forgot to strike the nom. Done so now. No reason to not keep the article. Zakhalesh (talk) 07:53, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Not only have the band performed several songs in a fairly major film, they have had two UK chart hits ([1]), and several examples of coverage exist: Peterborough Evening Telegraph, FemaleFirst, Channel 4 (links to several video diaries the band made for Channel 4), MTV. --Michig (talk) 15:07, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Good find. I still think the individual members don't need their own articles. Zakhalesh (talk) 15:08, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - Agreed - only one had an article, which I have redirected to the band.--Michig (talk) 15:30, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    - Actually Matt Harris had an article too - I nominated it for speedy as well, until I spotted that it had been a dab page and restored it to that state. Zakhalesh (talk) 15:33, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
