The subject does not appear to be notable within his field. Ecoleetage (talk) 19:37, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

• Delete, No apparent notability. Fails WP:PROF. KleenupKrew (talk) 20:22, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
• Keep. WP:MUSIC is probably a better basis for evaluating notability in this case, and the international touring and awards seem to indicate notability. See http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=980DE1DF123CF93BA35753C1A9669C8B63&sec=&spon= for one of several articles in the New York Times. Note that there is an Israeli politician by the same name who appears to be notable as well.

• Keep Seems to satisfy the requirements for musicians. DGG (talk) 18:48, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
• Keep. Excluding the Israeli politician from the search the subject gets 100 hits in the Google News Archive, many of them devoted to the subject, and 7 hits on Google Books. How many of the black punk death groove metal bands that we welcome with open arms get even one mention in such sources? Phil Bridger (talk) 08:05, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
• Keep, per Eastmain's observation above and my own Google noodling. I just made a few edits to the article, and in doing so, noticed that a lot of this article comes from this reference, and gets dangerously close to violating WP:COPYVIO. Tan | 39 18:03, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
