Fails WP:CORP, although it would be nice to have a more specific guideline under WP:MUSIC about record labels. Speedy declined with rationale "there are albums released on this label on the English, German and Italian Wikipedias". I see no such articles, although a split EP half-contributed to by the notable Cock and Ball Torture is mentioned in the discography sections of the band's article. The label appears to have no website (which creates WP:V problems) and Discogs.com lists a solitary album on its Lofty Storm page, with no other contact details. As you might expect from a Brazilian grindcore label, Google Books, News and Scholar turn up nothing, and even a basic Google search revealed nothing but a scant few releases in band discography pages. WP:MUSIC describes an important indie as one that's been around more than a few years, with a roster, many of which bands are notable. Lofty Storm, as far as I can see on that front have released a split EP, one have of which was contributed to by a notable band. No where near good enough, even if we assume label notability is WP:INHERITED. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 13:24, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- comment Do this search: [1]. The results are not pleasant enough to paste in here! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 13:33, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Fair enough, I see one further article on the Polish WP for a four-way split involving Exhumed; the rest are category pages. Still no coverage whatsoever, and number of interwiki pages is not a sign of notability at any rate. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 14:51, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I found an interview with the founder of the label, see [2]. Lechatjaune (talk) 02:47, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - the article needs independent sources/third-party sources per WP:NOR, WP:V, WP:RS and WP:N. Algébrico (talk) 16:00, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
