Seemingly unnotable band. Sources are unreliable, including facebook page and the band's website. Google search does not come up with anything better. I don't see any coverage really anywhere. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ^ᐐT₳LKᐬ 02:41, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The band released an album on a major record label and if you do a deeper search you'll find they were covered on all the notable music sites (ie Allmusic) as well as newspapers and books. The article just needs more attention and less unreliable sources like facebook --I call the big one bitey (talk) 02:49, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. Coverage from Allmusic (bios and reviews) and NME ([1]) arguably enough to suggest sufficient notability, but I'd like to see more. --Michig (talk) 08:39, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I am probably butchering Wikipedia proper procedure but I absolutely remember this band, and was introduced to it by a friend. Perhaps not the most famous of bands ever, but also not a non-entity. Their music stood out from contemporary mainstream. 153.145.3.197 (talk) 15:11, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
