[edit] Hot Bitch Arsenal
Does not meet WP:MUSIC at all. No big tours, and no label. The few interviews that have been found are from either, 1.) Trivial Sources, or 2.) are not even reviews at all, but sites stating that the band is out there. The page's creator says they are notable because they release their music on the creative commons license, but, that has nothing to do with being notable under WP:MUSIC.

- Comment Unfortunately, I cannot read the article on TheSixtyOne site, so I cannot determine if it adds towards the band's notability (website restrictions at work). The interview on the NPR page certainly counts towards it. If there is multiple independent coverage from noteworthy sources then this band can be classed as notable. A google search hasn't shown anything else significant though. I'm going to hold off my vote until I can get to a computer that allows me to read that article. In the meantime, if the page's editors can add more independent sources, then it will help the article's case. StephenBuxton (talk) 12:20, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Read The61 page - just a list of available downloads. Not seen anything that meets the notability criteria of WP:MUSIC. StephenBuxton (talk) 14:58, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

- Delete. Fails criteria of WP:MUSIC; NPR is a trivial source; releasing music under CC license is non-notable per WP:MUSIC. Visor (talk) 12:08, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
