I'm listing this here on behalf of A Sniper who PRODed the article, unaware that an AFD had been started (but incorrectly formed) before. Their concern about the article is that "self-released demo band, non-important, no notoriety (other than two members were hired as musicians for Cynic (band) until one year ago)".

Delete Although this is an interesting band, I feel they fail on every level. A limited edition, self-released CD does not make them notable or important. They are virtually unknown. Yes, two members were hired to record & tour with Cynic, but that is not enough to warrant the article. Perhaps if Exivious release a full-length disc on a bona fide label then the article can be reinstated. Best, A Sniper (talk) 00:29, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete:Not a notable band, lacks coverage in WP:reliable sources so fails WP:GNG. Mattg82 (talk) 01:42, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
