Confusing restoration of a previous Prod, CSD??? Article contains no references from Reliable sources to verify, and does not meet WP:N. I like to note that its very essay like. Phearson (talk) 21:18, 9 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Just to try and clarify the history somewhat - this was previously located at The Semibeings where it was prodded and had the prod declined in March 2010. Apparently that went unnoticed since it was then prodded and deleted in December 2010. It was recently recreated from a mirror site so I restored the article history for attribution taking it as a contested prod per WP:REFUND. Given the history of prods, the likelihood of recreation, and the assertions of reviews by Option and RollingStone.com I declined an A7 tag. I have no opinion on the article's notability at this time. VernoWhitney (talk) 21:38, 9 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. There's a short bio and reviews at Allmusic, an Option review is partially visible via Google Books, WZBN News TV item that confirms some of the other parts of the article ([1]), plus two albums on significant enough labels (C/Z Records and Shimmy Disc) - passes two criteria of WP:BAND. --Michig (talk) 07:31, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep. Meets WP:BAND per criterion 5. I agree that the article could use a lot more references, but the band has certainly released two albums on the "more important indie labels," as Michig points out. --Theodolite ➹ 19:48, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
