Nominating this for deletion. Unnotable and now seemingly inactive fringe band without even an active website. Keystone18 (talk) 22:42, 4 April 2025 (UTC) striking confirmed, blocked sockpuppet, Atlantic306 (talk) 19:58, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - They do have some minor media coverage, but always as one example among many others of bands that were removed from streaming services or otherwise attracted controversy for their lyrics. In other words, they appear as a bullet point in lists. Their music itself, or their particular lyrics for that matter, never generated any significant and independent coverage that I can find. The band was deleted long ago even when our notability requirements were much more lenient that now. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:58, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. White power music doesn't get coverage in normal journalism for obvious reasons, but the notable ones do tend to get coverage in academic sources, which they do. There is sigcov in Music and Genocide, a Peter Lang book. More here [1] [2] that plus the news coverage is decent. PARAKANYAA (talk) 19:53, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Also this French book on NSBM [3] from a decent music specialist publisher. PARAKANYAA (talk) 19:56, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
+ sigcov in a book from one of the same authors, but not sure if it is the same book just translated? [4] this appears to be from a normal music book publisher. cited a decent amount in academic works [5] PARAKANYAA (talk) 20:01, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
