South African metal band. Fails WP:GNG with very minor coverage in non-WP:RS sources (e.g. blogs/fansites). Fail WP:BAND with no songs nationally charting, no major awards (they have won minor awards at metal festivals, but these were not notable awards), their record label is a small non-notable/niche SA label, and no major tours/coverage. No entry in AllMusic or Sputnik Musik. Feels like their WP article is their most notable RS; it should be the other way around. Britishfinance (talk) 21:01, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note - This article was PROD'ded some time ago but the PROD was removed after a few sources were added. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:21, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Their works have been reviewed several times by a site called Angry Metal Guy, as seen in the article's existing citations, but that may or may not be significant and reliable, and either way this is practically the only publication that has noticed them. Otherwise they can only be found in brief directory entries and occasionally mentioned as merely being present at a festival. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:25, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Angry Metal Guy's "About" page self-identifies as a blog (despite have a so-called "staff" of reviewers.) I don't think it's an RS. ShelbyMarion (talk) 17:00, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as WP:TOOSOON as they do not seem to have any substantial coverage in reliable sources and no major claims of significance. They may be notable in the future but not at present unfortunately, Atlantic306 (talk) 21:39, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Fails WP:BAND. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:21, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
