Non notable band. Not to be confused either with present day English band of the same name (formerly known as The Peppernotes) or an earlier 1970s band. No allmusic.com entry. Released one compilation album, one EP and one single, none of which charted. Band has ceased to exist since 2003. Was previous speedy candidate in 2008 [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Palladium_(Australian_band)&diff=233269017&oldid=233062636].

  • Keep, the ref's that have been added post AfD nom confirm that all 3 of their releases have been through Warner Music Australasia, thus passing WP:MUSIC#C5; [http://www.brispop.com/index.cfm?action=dsp_release&artistID=64&releaseID=270], [http://www.brispop.com/index.cfm?action=dsp_release&artistID=64&releaseID=175], [http://www.brispop.com/index.cfm?action=dsp_release&artistID=64&releaseID=176]. The Allmusic does list the correct album, but against the English band, not the Aussie one, [http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:3nfyxz9kldae]. Not that that adds to the notability a all, I just like to hear the sound of my own voice.  Esradekan Gibb  "Talk" 11:52, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
  • Freudian slip? JoannaMinogue (talk) 23:41, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
  • No, do you not hear your own voice in your head when you type??? Mine sounds like a cross between Orson Welles & Barack Obama.  Esradekan Gibb  "Talk" 09:09, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
  • No. Talking to one-self in a different voice, is usually the first sign of madness. JoannaMinogue (talk) 07:54, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
  • Awww crap, I'm screwed now.  Esradekan Gibb  "Talk" 09:58, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
  • Speedy Keep - As much as I disagree with WP:MUSIC#C5, this band fits the criteria. This case is very cut and dry.OlYellerTalktome 19:43, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep. Sufficient mainstream releases to be considered notable. WWGB (talk) 08:21, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

:Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

  • Keep Had a notable musician as an important member, Andrew Morris [http://www.andrewmorris.com.au/press/]. Redirect is not appropriate due to their major label releases. (I remember these mob. I think that had reasonable press coverage when they were around) Duffbeerforme (talk) 07:38, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
  • Weak keep/Neutral. Not too impressed by the sourcing, and one album is never going to be enough to pass WP:MUSIC (4/5-track CD singles ain't albums). I'm inclined to give the article a chance, though.--Michig (talk) 07:41, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
