This album is not a grunge album. If the guys from Iron Maiden and Judas Priest made an album that sounded just like Public Enemy or N.W.A. you wouldn't say it was a heavy metal album, you would say it was a rap album. I think it should say "rock band".
Maybe this is just my personal bias taking over (well, it is, in fact) but I believe it should mention his death being 8 years after Kurt Cobain's death or apparent suicide or alleged suicide instead of the definitive "suicide," since it is still widely disputed. I, for one, think he was murdered but there's a good way to introduce a little more NPOV to this article. I'll leave this up, and if nobody has any real objections after a week or so, I'm gonna change it to one of the aforementioned terms. -- MUSpud2 22:22, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
this album is not really a grunge album im not sure what it is but i think it should delve into its diversity a little bit so people dont get disapointed when they find out its not all grunge tunes.

"I'll spare you the long story, but the album should be mad season, and the band should be Mad Season. Because of the capitalization differences (and a note atop each of the pages), parenthenses are totally unneeded.

Unless a good reason is provided otherwise, I oppose this. The capitalization of a single letter is not sufficient to distinguish between these two in the title. In searches and in links, having a distinct title is necessary. — Centrx→ talk • 03:05, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
After reading this article it looks pretty clear this band only lasted one year. Only in 1998 did recording resume with both a new name and a new line-up. The name "Disinformation" would apply to a new band by typical standards of the musical-chair groups of today. Also, according to the article's references the band toured in 94-95 (only 8 gigs). So then, shouldn't the years active be '1994 - 1995'? - Steve3849 talk 10:44, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

The article is well-written overall, but I ran into issues verifying several of the claims in the article. Individually, most of these claims are minutiae, and I don't think that any single one is a deal breaker, but together they add up. If most of these issues are be fixed, then I'll be happy to close the review as a pass.
The issues are:
Additionally, some edit suggestions for style, which are not holding up the GA but are places where it could be improved:

So, more than a week has gone by, but there's only two (connected) significant issues left: source 21 (used at the beginning of the Partial reunion section) says that the reunion was a concert for Haiti, not Mike's annual benefit concert for Crohn's disease
as claimed in the article, and the lack of a source at the end of that section to back up claims of an album charting. I'm tempted to just edit the first claim and remove the second claim myself and then confer GA status, as these are rather minor issues. However, I do want to leave open the chance for a source to be provided for the album charting claim, or for another source backing up the claim that it was a Crohn's disease benefit concert, so I'll leave this open for another week before closing it out. signed,
