  • Delete Wikipedia is not a Crystal Ball. Obina 17:59, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep WP:CRYSTAL doesn't mention albums... but it does specifically allow for inclusion of notable and likely to occur events. Nominator gives no reason to suspect these albums won't be released so, at most, they should be redirected to the notable band releasing the album, not deleted. Redirection doesn't require AFD. --W.marsh 18:28, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete If and when the album is released, it can prove its notability. Until then I believe Crystal Ball applies. --Stormbay 21:02, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Very well put by Stormbay. We've waited ten years, we can wait another couple of months until it actually appears, if/when it does. Accounting4Taste 22:53, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep There is no reason to suspect that this album is the musical equivalent of "vaporware". The band has a well-attested career nearly forty years long, and the official website for the band has the complete track listing as well as the target release date.

  • Keep 2 seconds on Google brought up the band's site with a note from the band's manager giving all the relevant information. I've added the reference. Here's an interview with the band that discusses the album. — Scientizzle 15:46, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
