WP:NMUSIC, and the article is not referenced well enough to get them over
WP:GNG in lieu — literally the only footnotes present here at all are two record charts, being cited to support that the album didn't chart on either of them. There are also two media hits being contextlessly listed as external links instead of being used as footnotes, but they both represent purely local coverage in purely local-interest contexts, and fail to say anything about the band that would strengthen their notability claim at all — and one of them is a dead link, to boot. As always, the existence of one or two pieces in a band's own hometown local media is not in and of itself a GNG-based exemption from having to pass any of NMUSIC's achievement-based criteria: GNG is not just "count the media hits and keep anything that gets to two", but also takes into account factors like the depth of the sources, the geographic range of the sources and the context of what they're getting coverage for.
