First of all, I was close to simply speedying as A7 considering there's not much and my searches found nothing better than this but as always I like AfDs especially when they carry weight in case this is restarted (G4). Next, the last AfD is completely outdated and unapplicable with Wikipedia certainly changing since 2006 so it would be helpful to have new comments. This article has existed since September 2005 with hardly ever improvement and their website suggests they are not better known with considerably better coverage. Pinging Ohnoitsjamie, Boleyn (and I notice, Boleyn, you PRODded it and removed it but never advanced with an AfD, was that intentional?) Scott MacDonald and Mbinebri.

Delete I'm not sure what my edits were about from 2013, but I couldn't verify that this can meet WP:NBAND or WP:GNG. Boleyn ( talk) 08:13, 21 October 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - difficult to research due to the band taking their name from the murderer who was the inspiration the The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. But there is not enough in-depth coverage in reliable sources to show they pass WP:GNG, nor do they qualify under WP:NMUSIC. Onel5969 TT me 15:43, 14 November 2015 (UTC) reply
