Comment Just deleted the copy-and-paste of [1] as apparent copyvio. Bakazaka (talk) 01:23, 26 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Cove Reber#Dead American (2017-Present). WP:TOOSOON for a new band project that hasn't released an album, and the target article already has a paragraph of information on this band, so redirect is a reasonable alternative to deletion. Based on the subsequent insertion of text directly from band website into this article, seems like WP:PROMO meant to promote the album, but no prejudice against recreation if the group ever achieves notability, as long as COI guidelines (and copyright policies) are followed.

Delete No basis for notability, lacks coverage. No claim of notability. Redirects are cheap, so that might be okay. --Bejnar (talk) 16:19, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
