Does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:MUSICBIO. First links when I google searched were to www.metal-archives.com, which is not a RS. The rest of the first five pages are social media, metal zines or sales sites. No RSes in the group. Only user reviews as sputnikmusic.com. Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:02, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. This is the only decent source I found. While I have found some album reviews, they are featured on these metal zines. The cited sources are either these metal zines, a promotional Blabbermouth piece, the Zero Tolerance one is not even available, and I don't know how much Terrorizer covers them (though I have a suspicion that said coverage is short or just a section). And finally, we have the external links which do not establish notability whatsoever. Searching is also difficult because there is a brutal death metal band with this name with the guy from Cephalotripsy, and the words tend to appear separately or not in the band's context, so it is recommended to search with the albums to specify that we are searching for this Condemned. Even though, if searched with the albums, it returns only the standard unreliable stuff. They have also released one studio album, and if I know right, a band needs to release two before they can qualify for a WP article. Of course, there are cases when a band released only one studio album, and they have gotten significant, reliable coverage, but Condemned did not as they are underground.

- Agreed. That source seems to, on fist glance, fail RS as it has no author. Walter Görlitz (talk) 23:55, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Metal.de is usually considered to be a reliable/decent source as I have noticed. While I have used it around huwiki as a source, I wasn't sure about its reliability (since it isn't present on WP:ALBUMAVOID), but then I was told it is reliable. But I really don't know anymore.

Delete Sources fails in passing WP:GNG. Pilean (talk) 16:57, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -fails WP:NBAND and WP:GNG. Lack of significant coverage in multiple reliable independent sources. --Ashley yoursmile! 20:11, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
