This band have been around ten years and are notable for covering Blink 182's Neighbourhood, and not much else. I declined a CSD A7 as the creator insisted there was coverage in reliable sources, and there are some suitable sources here and here, but I don't really think that's enough for a full band article and I can't obviously see anything else.

  • Delete - No different from any other artist covers - I guess it could be Merged in to Neighbourhood but not sure how that would be possible so going with the easiest option, Anyway can't find anything on this band so Delete. –Davey2010Talk 01:11, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself" missing the mark here. if they covered a song that is notable put it in the article that dodges notability requirements but not stand alone material.

  • Delete I've added a few references from the original Swedish article, but can't find enough online in Swedish or English to satisfy the "multiple, non-trivial" requirement of WP:BAND, per Bryce Carmony above. A cover album that created a brief buzz on social media doesn't really make a band notable, and none of their original works has made a dent in any charts as far as I can find.
