Notability

I've tagged this article for notability, because it seems to me that this band doesn't meet the notability requirements of Wikipedia. Djdickmutt 17:41, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They fit notability per WP:MUSIC: Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country,3 reported in reliable sources.4
Their tour (for Dead Mountain Mouth) dates were listed at Absolutepunk.net, also, seen here: http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=140981. They're doing another US tour this year, too: http://shop.relapse.com/content/news_all.aspx?NewsItemID=440
They have also signed with Relapse Records, a notable independent record label, though maybe that is up for dispute: http://shop.relapse.com/content/news_all.aspx?NewsItemID=438
All facts presented, I think they're notable enough to be on Wikipedia. -- tal 17:24, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
More than anything, Genghis Tron is an influential band with a distinct style. I think all of these reasons are sufficient to remove the tag. Thoughts?
