Fails WP:ORG. Cannot find any proof it still exists either, so regardless of outcome of this proposal badly out of date. Joel.Miles925 (talk) 03:11, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - although there's more to this than I thought. I was thinking this is A7 eligible, but in fact the label has at least two notable artists, Cold War Kids and Adina Howard. 2 notable artists, in my opinion, isn't enough to make it one of the "more important independent labels" according to wp:NMUSIC #5. I found a few hits searching ""Monarchy Music" Costa Mesa", but they appear to be routine local announcements that don't help towards WP:GNG. 78.26 _{(spin me / revolutions)} 14:06, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: fails WP:ORGCRIT and WP:ORGDEPTH. It's actually three notable artists, 78.26, because Delta Spirit also put out their debut EP on Monarchy, but the key point is that none of these artists had any notable releases on the label. Both Delta Spirit and Cold War Kids released their first EPs on the label before signing with major labels – they weren't notable bands at the time these EPs came out. Adina Howard's association with the label appears to have been for just one song, "Switch", in 2013, and she was only signed with them for 18 months. None of the Monarchy releases by these artists charted at all. So the "notable artists" association for Monarchy is more a WP:INHERITED situation.
