- Weak Keep - I've come across this band before, and one problem is that they don't quite know how to spell their own name, with different use of caps and spacing. That might make searching for sources a bit of a chore. Also, per WP:NEXIST, the nominator's source review doesn't mean much when it only reviews the sources already in the article, which were probably placed by less experienced editors. The band has been profiled in punk/psychedelic genre mags such as: [1], [2], [3], [4]; they have some notice for prominence in their (original) local scene: [5]; and they have some published album reviews: [6], [7]. My vote is "weak keep" because those sources are generally short and tend toward the bloggy, but the band does have some coverage. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:52, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - based on new sources discovered by DOOMSDAYER520.Royal88888 (talk) 05:14, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - meets GNG, but not based upon the sources in the article but rather the sources identified by DOOMSDAYER520 and further independent coverage in specialist zines such as Punknews.org, New Noise Magazine, Heavy Mag, and Ghost Cult Mag. ResonantDistortion 19:33, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
- Per the comments here, I (the author of the article) will begin work on incorporating these sources into the article under discussion, plus any other changes referenced here that will improve the overall quality. I wasn't sure whether I should start that work prior to this being resolved, but if that will help the discussion, I can do that asap. Jacob Robertson (talk) 19:12, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
