I'm not sure Jan Metternich meets our criteria for notable musician biographies (WP:MUSICBIO). The current sourcing are mainly articles published just this year and, beyond the Earmilk capsule review and The Hindu interview, don't give me the impression that he himself or his creative works have received enough coverage in reputable publications to presume notability.

• Delete. This is a case of WP:TOOSOON. Sources are mainly interviews and as such lack independence. Ultimately the couple independent reviews aren't enough to establish notability. Fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 02:51, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
