Unremarkable album with no chart history or enough music notability to held an article of its own. Some album reviews are availab,e but it's not enough coverage or media presence. Hahc21 {{small|
- Keep: A cursory search of a few reliable music sites turned up sources rather easily: [http://www.cmj.com/reviews/h2o-dont-forget-your-roots/] [http://www.altpress.com/news/entry/h2o_announce_dont_forget_your_roots_pre_order_stream_new_cover_song] [http://www.punknews.org/article/44161]. The WP:N bar is deliberately not set very high; enough sources are available for this topic to pass WP:NALBUMS. --IllaZilla (talk) 06:09, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

- Keep Generally, if a band is notable then major studio albums by that band are also notable. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 02:15, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
:*Just wanted to note that, per policies, notability is not inherited. That a band or artist is notable doesn't mean all of their albums/singles/songs/etc will automatically be notable. --Hahc21 {{small|
- Comment: My opinion is probably moot, being the creator and one of only two significant contributors to the article, but I figured that since the band already had five other albums deemed notable enough, then it only made sense that their latest would pass the test as well.Jasper420 05:22, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
- Keep A quick Google search came up with many reviews (including 22 on iTunes), videos and reports on the album. It's a notable album from a notable artist, it should be kept. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Splasher9 (talk • contribs) 14:26, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
:*Just wanted to note that iTunes reviews are made by users, and then are not reliable. —Hahc21 {{small|
- Delete or Redirect to H2O (American band) (possible search term) - It can't have much independent notability because the only info about it is that it exists and consists of 14 songs by various artists. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹Speak 17:40, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
:*The same can be said for thousands of others albums currently covered without issue on Wikipedia.Jasper420 00:44, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
::*I'm well aware of the countless, worthless, shitty little music stubs that contain less information than one could find on HMV's website. As they say, WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹Speak 01:10, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

::::*They'll never become anything more because they rarely receive more than routine (if any) coverage in reliable sources. Regarding this album, if there's any viable info it should be used to expand the brief line at H2O (American band)#Don't Forget Your Roots (2011). A WP:SPLIT to an independent article would be reasonable if there was so much reliably-sourced information that it made the main article unwieldy. Basically, my stance is quality over quantity.
