Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Death of a lifetime
Band created earlier this month. Asserts 2 "number 1 hits" on a chart I don't recognize. Unsourced. NawlinWiki 15:54, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:V. Apparently a cover band. Both the songs are notable by the original artists, but fail google search combined with this band's name. Fan-1967 15:59, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- I'l vouch for them, won the east london GAN band contest.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Man man man (talk • contribs)

- Read Wikipedia:Notability (music). We have articles on bands with record deals, reviews in major music publications, national tours. Winning a local contest doesn't come close. Fan-1967 16:20, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

- I don't understand why you're repeating the same question. Let me put it as simply as possible. Nobody outside of East London has ever heard of them. We don't do articles on unknown bands. Fan-1967 16:28, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
