An unsigned and apparently non-notable band. The article, created by Davidsophia (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) (same name as a band member) was previously PROD deleted as The Boneless Children Foundation (same content, created by same author). This version was nominated for WP:PROD in 2019, but that was removed with hopes of more references, but none have been forthcoming. The band appears to be unsigned, to have produced only self-published work, to have met with minimal chart success, and to consist of members who aren't themselves notable. Reliable independent coverage appears limited to a few minutes of radio play, some "what's on" local listings, and 3 words in a newspaper blog. I can't find any evidence of further notability or substantial independent coverage, and we've been asking for that for 13 years. So I think this squarely fails WP:NMUSIC and WP:GNG, and should not be in Wikipedia. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 13:26, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I was the PROD-nominator back in 2019 and I've literally been meaning to AfD this ever since. Nominator found the same amount of sources I did back in 2019, best described with the technical term "fuck-all". ♠PMC♠ (talk) 13:35, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete. Sources are fairly unimpressive, for the most part. I was able to find one newspaper reference ("Killing My Lobster pop!". The San Francisco Examiner. San Francisco, California. 2004-02-23. p. 11. Retrieved 2022-07-04 – via Newspapers.com.</ref>). A brief mention in the NYT does seem relevant. Overall, it doesn't seem like there is much to work with, but if someone were to WP:HEY the article I would certainly change my mind. jp×g 05:11, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
