[edit] POV problems

The article need a lot of work to conform to the policys of Wikipedia:Neutral point of view and Wikipedia:Verifiability. Claims of "wide critical acclaim", "cemented themselves" and "unbelievable rendition" either need to be cited or re-written to be more neutral. Regards, MartinRe 10:50, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

I've removed/rewritten some of these, bar the "cemented themselves" one, as couldn't see how to phrase that better right now. Some questions come to mind for those knowing more about the band:
  • Is the band currently active? (official site says on vacation)
  • Dates of festival/active from/etc need to be verified - I changed festival date as per MP3.com, but that means date active is after first album release date!
Article needs a lot more sources/offical reviews/etc to show notability as per WP:MUSIC, though. MartinRe 15:02, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

I've been searching for more articles about the band, but in 2000 most of the reviews would have been dead tree only. Unfortunately the "Official" website for the band is sorely lacking. I'm fixing the NPOV issues also. I will add more comments to the AfD for this article. Krakrjak 03:23, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
