Comment. I know WP:ATD isn't really your thing, but would you care to explain why you are ignoring the potential pass of WP:NBAND via those two albums, and my comment when deproding suggest a potential merge to Vomitory (band)? --Michig (talk) 17:07, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- ATDs are my thing but they don't pass NBAND. I frequently redirect and have done a number of merges. The problem is that Metal Blade is not a "major record label", as you claimed when you contested the PROD. Those labels are defined at Record label#Major labels, and that's linked on the notability criteria page. Care to explain why you have a broader set of inclusion than the rest of the project? However, Merge discussions don't come free with Twinkle,. Honestly though, there's nothing worth salvaging from the article so what's to merge? And the members are not prominent in either band (seen in the lack of write-ups). Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:39, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  - I didn't claim Metal Blade was a major record label - read the guideline, which includes "one of the more important indie labels" which Metal Blade is for this genre. You claim "the members are not prominent in either band" - Rundqvist was the bassist/vocalist of Vomitory from 1999 to 2013 during which time they released seven of their eight albums, and Tobias Gustafsson was the drummer for the band's entire 24-year history, so how are those not prominent members? Do you actually read these things before making these comments? If you have a band which splits up and two of the most prominent members form another band, that's quite obviously worth including in the article on the first band. --Michig (talk) 08:46, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment There is print coverage in Terrorizer, Sweden Rock magazine, and Legacy, that should be sufficient for GNG. --Michig (talk) 12:55, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep- per references that makes this WP:GNG. WP:NBAND via two albums,--BabbaQ (talk) 13:54, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Withdraw The print sources that Michig found seem to show GNG, and there has been no traction on the AfD. Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:58, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
