Does not yet appear to exist as a band; hasn't published any music. Also, a good indication that it fails WP:BAND is the reference to "the band's official Myspace page". Sandstein 22:35, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

::Weak keep, whilst the band has yet to release anything, they do pass criterion 7 of WP:MUSIC: "Contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable; note that it is often most appropriate to use redirects in place of articles on side projects, early bands and such, and that common sense exceptions always apply." They will of course automatically become notable the second they release anything as per this criterion, even if we don't think it is applicable now; I'd err on the side that it does, and leave the article as a stub until further information is available. Incidentally, the Myspace comment is inaccurate; Myspace is often the first place many bands place news items these days. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 22:41, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

::Keep. Inhered notability isn't always convincing but in this case we are discussing a band formed by Thomas Gabriel Fischer, a very important character in the development of the many metal subgenres. Kameejl ^(Talk) 07:53, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

::Redirect When they have done something they might be worth keeping. Until then the suggestion in criterion 7 of WP:MUSIC of a redirect should apply. Duffbeerforme (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 11:20, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Delete. As no reliable sources are cited within this article, it seems to me that it is not in compliance with the verifiability policy. Stifle (talk) 14:02, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

:*Comment. Then it's best to add sources instead of deleting the article, don't you think? Cheers Kameejl ^(Talk) 15:20, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

::* Per WP:V, it is those who want to retain content who must provide sources for it, not those who want to delete it. Sandstein 15:22, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
