  • Delete. While there are a couple of "not as terrible as I was expecting" sources here (a review of the EP in Exclaim!, and a couple of short blurbs about the releases of videos), they're not supporting anything that constitutes an WP:NMUSIC pass — even NMUSIC #1, the criterion that just requires media coverage to exist, still requires more substantive coverage to exist than just short blurbs. So the Exclaim! review is the only genuinely strong source here, but one strong source isn't enough. Bearcat ( talk) 01:01, 20 February 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Keep - PopMatters coverage also appears to be a qualifying source so we have multiple in my eye and so WP:GNG is met. ~ Kvng ( talk) 15:13, 24 February 2018 (UTC) reply
That's one of the short blurbs that I already addressed in my comment above — it's not substantive enough to aid a GNG pass if it's not verifying anything that would actually nail an NMUSIC criterion right on its face, because apart from the embedded video link itself the actual written content is less than 300 words in total, and even then at least half of them are about the director of the video more than the band.

Yes, that's your assessment. Mine is different. ~ Kvng ( talk) 21:27, 27 February 2018 (UTC) reply
