Fails WP:NALBUM, lacks any sources or references. Has been tagged as such since September 2018 with no improvements or referencing.

The previous AfD argued that it was notable because it was released by a notable band. As per WP:NALBUM, the recording needs to be notable in its own right (WP:GNG). I've searched but cannot find any reliable independent secondary sources for this release. Dan arndt (talk) 07:56, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Josephine Collective: found absolutely nothing supporting notability. I'm not even convinced the band is notable; all their article has is an AllMusic bio which is just a paragraph long. But for now, this may as well be sent there despite receiving zero mention on that page. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 08:48, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Josephine Collective. I was amazed to see that this article survived an AfD in 2010, when dinosaurs walked the earth, partially because of a "weak keep" vote from me. That vote was a reaction to the circumstances of the time: Wikipedia had recently decided that demo albums were not notable unless proven otherwise, and this caused a rash of AfDs in which nominators scoured the earth for album articles that simply had "Demo" in the titles but rarely bothered to discuss possible notability. My vote back then was procedural due to weak reasoning from the 2010 nominator. So anyway... this album article seems to have fallen through the cracks until now, and since 2010 the album notability rules have gotten tougher. This album clearly gained no notice from the reliable music media, so I hereby overrule my younger self. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:03, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: This is about all I find [1]. Nothing for sourcing for the album, I doubt the band is even notable. Oaktree b (talk) 16:22, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
