- Delete - would say redirect, except for the persistence of recreation. Fails WP:GNG and does not meet WP:NALBUM. Onel5969 TT me 02:26, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep: The sources in the article, including Spectrum Culture, are reliable. I also found a few more reliable sources, which talk about the article: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5] and [6].. It has a brief description in a Pitchfork article. That said, the article is good enough to pass WP:NALBUM. ASTIG😎 ( ICE T • ICE CUBE) 15:00, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
- Extensive coverage is required for albums. Per
WP:NALBUM if the article cannot be expanded beyond a stub it should redirect to the artist. There is simply not enough reliably sourced content to justify an independent article.

Polyamorph, criterion 1 of
WP:NALBUM states that an album is notable if it
has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble who created it.
The EP has received coverage from AllMusic, Spectrum Culture, Sputnik Music, Treblezine, Seattle Weekly, Exclain, Blurt and Clash magazines. Therefore, the EP meets the said criterion and there's good enough sources which make it notable. I have explained more than enough. And I won't respond to this post again. My keep stands.

WP:NALBUM also states
Notability aside, a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged into the artist's article or discography.

- Keep Meets WP:NALBUM with sources presented by Astig. They're reliable enough IMV. SBKSPP ( talk) 01:05, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- It's not so much a question of the sources being reliable (although several are dubious in that regard) and more whether they represent extensive coverage to justify an independent article, per
WP:NALBUM.

- Keep per the additional sources added by Superastig which establish notability. The article isn't a stub, and passes WP:GNG, so I disagree with the idea that it is too short to warrant a separate article. NemesisAT ( talk) 22:17, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
