WP:BAND. I'm sure this was created in good faith by an editor eager to give exposure to local bands from Phoenix, but there doesn't seem to be enough coverage of this band even within Phoenix, never mind outside the city. The band's record label is 100% owned by one of the band members, so all their records are effectively self-released – according to the article all their records are out of print, which isn't a good sign for notability if your own band on your own label isn't pressing up any more copies. The effusive Punknews.com biography cited in the references is almost certainly provided by the band themselves, and still doesn't give any indication of anything more than local fame. There are two reviews of their albums in the Phoenix New Times, one included in the citations [1] which gives no biographical detail at all, and the other isn't included, possibly because it's less than flattering [2]. The non-notable movie that includes two of their songs was made by first-year film students at Arizona State University. I can't find any other sources about this band, reliable or otherwise.
