Hog Molly

Small-time Seattle band that released one album in 2001, got a few good reviews, and then broke up for lack of inspiration. Most google hits are either for their mp3s - and really, making your mp3s available free online is not a good measure of notability - or for the fish of the same name. DS 12:57, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• The album they released - was it a physical album, or a bunch of MP3s on the internet? In the former case, weak keep; in the latter, strong delete. Radiant_* 13:15, Apr 21, 2005 (UTC) Convinced by the below, so keep. Radiant_* 10:08, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: "a bunch of MP3s on the internet" doesn't necessarily mean lack of notability; see Lagoona, for example. These folks get 1640 Google hits to their name, and a listing on the BNR Metal Pages, a pretty well-respected online metal resource. Keep. --Idont Havaname 14:48, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep--it was a physical album, released on a label (admittedly indie). Allmusic has an entry on them. They're pretty clearly notable, at least to me. Meelar (talk) 14:10, Apr 21, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, notable to Meelar Kappa 18:51, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• keep because it seems important to me too Yuckfoo 00:42, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Meets at least two Wikimusic Project guidelines in that they have completed at least one national tour and contains Tad Doyle formerly of Tad who were well known in the 1990's Seattle scene and friends with Nirvana. see article [1] Capitalistroadster 02:16, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable enough for me. --Myles Long 16:12, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
