Notability[edit]

This article lacks any assertion of notability. The only external sources are record labels which have released material buy this guy and interviews/reviews on what appear to be blogs. Given the information in the article currently there is no reason to believe that most of it isn't original research. Please read the notability guidelines for music and consider adding published, third-party sources to the article. Happy wiking Zytsef (talk) 01:19, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Notability

Outside, published, third-party source: http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/record_review/45932-adrian-orange-her-band Pretty insulting that this musician's entry can only be justified by posting a vicious review. Domino harvey (talk) 05:34, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removed notability/deletion tag due to the following: 1)Meets notability guideline 6. This artist has worked with notable artist Mount Eerie. http://www.discogs.com/release/499358 2)Meets notability guideline 1, due to above Pitchforkmedia article. 3)Meets notability guideline 5, due to releasing records on the Marriage, K records and P.W. Elverum record labels, all of which have been established for several years and have (collectively speaking) released records by notable artists such as The Microphones, Mirah, Y.A.C.H.T., The Blow and Modest Mouse. http://www.discogs.com/label/K —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.80.162.157 (talk) 05:32, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removed notability and additional sources tags; I have added additional details of Orange's career, critical responses to his work and his influence on other musicians (all fully cited). I have also removed a few details which were unsupported by citations.146.90.132.11 (talk) 13:20, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

the first "citation needed"[edit]

i don't really use wikipedia as a user but if you want to have a citation for that, you can definitely find it on the Phil Elverum and Suns website or whatever his label is called under Thanksgiving. phil did definitely say that!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.163.53.10 (talk) 18:34, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This uncited quote has now been removed - a different quote from Elverum (with source) has been included in the 'Influence on other musicians' section of the article.--146.90.132.11 (talk) 13:16, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

He was born in 1986? Was he really 14/15 when he released his first record?

critical reception[edit]

it should be noted somewhere in the article (with appropriate sourcing, of course) that his recordings have recieved consistently negative reviews. Yilloslime ^T_C 05:08, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree - It was only the album Adrian Orange & Her Band which received notably mixed reviews (some negative, some positive). I've updated the article with sources to support this. --146.90.132.11 (talk) 13:15, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
