There's not a lot of sources, if at all, to indicate notability; most are just blog sites or deadlinks now, and those aren't reliable. Should be deleted now; until the band gains some notability, it doesn't need its own article. :| TelCo NaSp Ve :| 03:23, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. The TimeOut Moscow coverage looks good enough, and Google News shows plenty more, mostly in Russian though, so could do with a Rusian reader to judge.--Michig (talk) 19:41, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The article certainly needs improving, but the band does appear to be notable. Apart from the article cited by Michig, here is an article about them[1] in the Russian edition of Rolling Stone, an article about them (in English)[2] in Bearded. Here is a long article[3] about them in "Far from Moscow", which is a kind of a webmagazine at the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures of UCLA. There is also quite a bit of coverage in Russian, e.g. an article about them in the newspaper "Evening Moscow"[4], webmagazine 44100Hz[5], Vladivostok city news[6], etc. Nsk92 (talk) 06:17, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
