What makes this band notable? Cannibaloki 04:34, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

I believe that this band is notable because it meets at least one of the criteria for notability, mainly Section 7 of the notability criteria for musicians and ensembles. Before My End has become the most prominent representative of the local scene in Selma, Alabama, which can be verified by [http://www.selmatimesjournal.com/news/2008/aug/13/local-band-goes-nationals/ this newspaper article.]

:This newspaper article sounds like an advertising with no encyclopedic content.--Cannibaloki 23:40, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

  • Delete Fails WP:BAND - if there's any other sources apart from a myspace page and a youtube video to prove me wrong then I could be swayed towards keep but I couldn't find the necessary multiple third party references Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 13:51, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

It may sound like advertising to you, but that is only your opinion. The article does have encyclopedic content, and I believe it shows that Before My End is the most prominent representative of the local scene in Selma.--Wmt814 (talk) 23:49, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

  • Delete--I hate to say it, in this case, but Cannibaloki is right. One newspaper article does not significant coverage make (though I disagree with you here, Loki: it's good enough, but not enough), and I couldn't find anything in the local paper here either. But I'm getting the CD while I can. Drmies (talk) 01:02, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
  • {{done}} and for only $6! Loki, get yourself one! And come see the show on the 12th...you can stay at my place... Drmies (talk) 01:09, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep They are one of the most popular Death metal bands in Selma Alabama and they have their own Myspace page. I just watched them here [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7iSAL_dg4E] on Youtube. How is a band that rocks out like that non notable? 134 views already!!! ChildofMidnight (talk) 03:04, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Put your money where your mouth is boy and order the CD. Loki, I see we have another fan, but you were here first so you get the futon. CoM, you're in the bunkbed, and my kid snores. But that is a fascinating video...sometimes two lights are bobbing up and down, sometimes one.... Drmies (talk) 03:17, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
