Delete The only coverage I could find in a somewhat reliable source is
this. There are some other reviews in places like metal-archives.com, but I don't believe those are reliable enough to establish notability.

Weak delete - Caroline and Restless are notable labels. They're reviewed in the Chicago Tribune. Reviewed in Blabbermouth and Decibel; don't know much about those sources, but they're listed as reliable.

Comment Caro7200 listed some facts that establish notability, so I think he meant "Weak Keep", not "Weak Delete". Coupled with the things he said, some of the members are also part of
Suicidal Tendencies, which is a notable band, so I think multiple aspects of notability are met.

Sorry, I did not know that is the norm here, as I am mainly active on huwiki, where that is an indication of notability. The "notability for music" essay or guideline was imported to huwiki from here, so I guessed we have inherited your rules.

If the band had multiple notable individuals, it would be a consideration. Members being in multiple bands is not a consideration for the band. Also, if there is no way to source any content, how many notable members there are in the band is irrelevant.

These statements by S.F.Radish and Walter are not necessarily true. See criterion #6 at
WP:NBAND. However, for the band under discussion here, it is worth wondering whether all those blue-linked members really are notable, and the "loop" mentioned in the guideline might be relevant. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (

This statement by Doomsdayer520 is not necessarily true. See the preamble of NBAND where it states the subject "may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria" (emphasis mine). It does not state that it is immediately notable. There has to be significant coverage related to the item, not just a passing mention.

Weak Keep - I'm sure this vote won't help with consensus but I gotta be honest. Above, Caro7200 mentioned some reviews in reliable sources. The band got lucky with an album review in the Chicago Tribune, but read it here:
[1]. It is one paragraph long, only mentions one song, and uses platitudes like "combination of anger and persistence" that could be said about anyone. Reliable source, but not
significant. On the other hand, reviews at Blabbermouth
[2] and Decibel
[3] are quite robust. That helps with criterion #1 at
WP:NBAND, and being signed to two notable labels helps with criterion #5. Having several members that are notable for other endeavors helps with criterion #6 (though this is admittedly a stretch and the notability of some of those people is suspect). Some good news and some bad news in this analysis, but the good manages to squeak past the bad. In any case the article needs to be cleaned up up pretty badly. And their name is brilliant. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (

Weak delete there seems to be some coverage for this band but it still remains rather limited. If none of their works have charted on Billboard, then notability would still remain a doubt. ɴᴋᴏɴ21❯❯❯talk19:20, 21 March 2021 (UTC)reply
Keep A group doesn't need to chart on Billboard in order to be considered notable. The article needs cleaning up and references to be added, but as per Doomsdayer520 I believe they are notable enough to be kept.

Keep. release on Caroline and Restless are good for wp:music#5. Online coverage scrapes in for #1. Likely to have been covered in magazines of the day.

You'll notice that the subjects with articles were not actually notable and have undergone their own AfDs (or PRODs) and so the argument that this band had multiple notable members is no longer valid.
