Fails WP:NALBUM. I would redirect to Evergrey, but that article has also been nominated. No objection to redirecting if the latter AfD is closed as "keep". The coverage that I found of this album appears to mostly consist of passing mentions or not in-depth about the album itself, thus not satisfying the "multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble who created it." of criterion #1. There has been no evidence that it charted to pass #2 either, with sverigetopplistan returning no results TheSandDoctor Talk 04:13, 12 October 2020 (UTC); expanded 18:21, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Notable album by a notable band. Heiko Gerber (talk) 16:59, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @Heiko Gerber: Rationale expanded. I am unopposed to a redirect to Evergrey discography, but as written this type of !vote rationale is best avoided per WP:Verifiability. --TheSandDoctor Talk 18:22, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge all albums to Evergrey discography. The track listings can be condensed into collapsed templates there. BD2412 T 19:13, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Per Heiko Gerber. I found some reliable sources which talk about the album: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8] and [9]. With these, the album is good enough to pass WP:NALBUM. ASTIG😎 (ICE T • ICE CUBE) 16:00, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- sputnikmusic appears to be a user-generated review, thus not helping at all towards notability not RS per WP:ALBUMAVOID
- metal templeThough the site itself is of potentially questionable notability (also not listed at WP:RSP), this is the first source with any depth whatsoever
- metal archives is explicitly outlined as a non-reliable source at Wikipedia:WikiProject Metal#External links and WP:ALBUMAVOID
- hardwired magazine does not cover the album in significant depth nor does Hardwired magazine appear a reliable source
- sonicperspectives Not bad content wise but I am concerned about the reliability of the publication itself given that it sonicperspectives.com does not have an article nor is it listed at WP:RSP
- hardrockhaven appears to be pure over the top WP:PUFFERY that would not be allowed into a WP:RS review
- myglobalmind concerns me about reliability of the publication based on myglobalmind.com not being an article and not being listed at WP:RSP.
- metallized.it is non-trivial in coverage but concerning in reliability since it describes itself as a webzine.
- thrashcore is non-trivial in coverage but it is a self-described zine, which are WP:SPS
- Overall, this album appears to run into problems with WP:NOTINHERETED, WP:NRV, and a general lack of non-trivial coverage in multiple reliable publications. --TheSandDoctor Talk 04:47, 14 October 2020 (UTC); updated given new info re WP:ALBUMAVOID 04:14, 16 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
