Dear admin,

Albeit historical, the band was influential in the 1990s and came at a time when Singapore did not have much of a local music scene to speak of and had close to no Singapore-grown commercially released recordings. The band achieved significant popularity in Singapore and regionally with their recordings in the 1990s. [1] [2]

  1. Has been featured in multiple non-trivial published works in verifiable media. ... there are significant write-ups in the Straits Times and other Singaporean and regional media/magazines. Problem is that most of these are offline (on paper) and no longer on the web.
  1. Has won or placed in a major music competition. ... they've won competitions in Singapore a couple of times. The band is known regionally in the 1990s. Singapore is a "medium sized country"

It is definitely not an entry for an unknown high-school band, bedroom DJ or a band trying to achieve popularity. They have a large following in Singapore. Youtube videos with large turnout are available. Their popularity at the time is similar to Electrico

I know the their first album was released by pony canyon in Australia. Anyway, I'm just a regular listener not some publicist or someone with commercial objectives. I am surprised that there was no wiki entry but saw wiki entries for lesser known Singapore-based bands. I don't have time to maintain this page, or know 100% on the band. But I really hope the entry will not immediately deleted and give many others a chance to contribute. Thanks.

I agree with the above to the extent that the article is clearly not eligible for speedy deletion.--PinkBull 15:35, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
