Fails WP:NALBUM. The Sputnikmusic review is a user review, which is user-generated content and thus unreliable. The Communicator is a high school newspaper, which is also not considered reliable for album reviews. All that's left, and all that I could find from a WP:BEFORE search, it is a pitiful couple-sentence long review in AllMusic. Endwise ( talk) 10:28, 24 September 2022 (UTC)

- Comment: Thoughts on [1] [2] [3] [4] for sources? I admit I'm surprised by the lack of coverage, the album got, and still gets, a lot of attention from independent online critics and music circles so I'm used to hearing about it a lot, but I guess that didn't translate to the mainstream press anywhere near as much.

- Keep, passes WP:NALBUM. Charted on the Billboard 200 and is certified gold in the US. The album has several 'hits', including one that's certified platinum in four countries. — VersaceSpace 🌃 17:56, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
- Keep per above. ArvindPalaskar ( talk) 03:27, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
- Keep per VersaceSpace + the sources I listed above. Nominator is right that the present sources are no good, though I wouldn't count out AllMusic so easily even though it's short. "...features more of the New York trio's eclectic, hooky pop" would at least be good for a genre/style section quote. QuietHere ( talk) 11:46, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
- Keep, I don't understand why this is being considered for deletion. It was the album that boosted AJR into superstardom and also, while this has nothing to do with it, it's one of my personal favorites. Don't you dare delete this page. Voicebox64 ( talk) 22:48, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
- Keep Meets WP:NALBUM with sources presented by QuietHere and nom. They're reliable and in-depth enough IMV. SBKSPP ( talk) 07:03, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
