Advertorialized article about a band, not reliably sourced as meeting any WP:NMUSIC criterion. Other than a single deadlink to a WordPress site that features no content at all anymore except for a single page inviting people to visit its social networking profiles, the only other "sourcing" present here at all is a linkfarm of the band's own self-published web presence on social networking and streaming sites -- and the article has been flagged as needing better references for almost five years without ever having any better references added at all. And further, the creator's username corresponds very closely to the name of a band member, so this was also a conflict of interest. Nothing stated in this article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the band from having to be referenced much, much better than this. Bearcat (talk) 00:08, 20 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Nothing found that would indicate notability. --Michig (talk) 17:50, 20 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: promotional article created by the band's leader immediately following the release of their debut album. No reliable sources found, the album was crowdfunded and released on a local independent record label (I suspect it may be the band's own label), no mention of the band in the archives of the major Panamanian newspapers. In 16 years of existence they have only produced one EP and one album, and the album's launch party was held in a bar with a capacity of just 225 people. The band may be well known on Panama's underground punk rock scene, but they don't appear to have any notability outside of that. Richard3120 (talk) 19:37, 20 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
