- Comment I had an admin have a look at the version before it was deleted in 2006, he confirmed that the versions were different enough to not be eligable for deletion via {{db-g4}}. I can't answer for the 2009 deletion discussion though.--kelapstick(bainuu) 02:02, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - unreferenced album of unclear notability, apparently an unreleased demo. Article has been afd'ed as delete twice already. Dialectric (talk) 13:54, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. I'm not finding significant coverage in reliable sources for this demo; does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:NALBUMS. Gongshow Talk 21:17, 31 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Nominator claims that demos are inherently non-notable; this reason is invalid; Blink 182's Buddha is most certainly notable, for example. It is true that demos are frequently non-notable, but it is not because they are demos, it is because demos frequently fail to meet notability criteria due to their underground nature. Unfortunately, in this case, he's right for the wrong reason, and the demo is indeed non-notable. 143.92.1.32 (talk) 00:00, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment As the nominator, I am aware that there are exceptions (especially for demos from some bigger bands) but as a general rule, they are presumed to be non-notable unless proven otherwise, and that is what I meant in my nomination comment--L1A1 FAL (talk) 20:07, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
