  • Comment: As by the Notability guideline, such sources as Discogs are not the "significant independent coverage" we need as they're simply a database, as you say, which is why this Draft should have an overall heavier focus in available major independent news, regardless if the database sources support information here.

  • Comment: The same listed guideline also says that the listed profiles such as MTV, Bandcamp, Discogs, etc. must be removed as they are not independent or significant; while there are now headlines for the journalists, those alone are simply not enough to satisfy WP:Notability (music). Basically these profile-like sources only exist to confirm it exists, but not notability, and especially since anyone can make their own profile, it wouldn't be notable.

  • Comment: The MTV and among similar are actually only announcements and notices, whever published, and that alone would not be enough; a lot of the sources are still either too trivial or few thus the need of a better focus in major independent news. The interviews are also trivial and the amount of Twitter followers are unconvincing. SwisterTwister talk 16:04, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
