I will be reviewing this article. Although there is a lot of good work here I see quite a few immediate issues. The fairly extensive use of lyrics may create a copyright issue and the use of quoted lyrics to make a point not reflecting what is in a secondary source may create a problem with WP:OR. There are also a lot of statements that lack citations. Most obvious are the many problems with adherence with the MOS, for example: the lack of logical quotation, citations before punctuation, use of italics on quotes and the use of a lot of one sentence paragraphs (particularly towards the end of the article). I do not want to quick fail this, but I do not think there would be much point in moving to a more detailed review until these issues are resolved.--SabreBD (talk) 15:19, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

I looked at this one a while back, and while I didn't feel I had the time to give a proper GA review justice, I was also concerned about this. I wanted to pay particular attention to the article's neutral point of view - since almost the whole raison d'etre of the band was to challenge and question the status quo, they were almost destined to create controversy, and it would be important to get the right balance. I also thought that the myriad of references might not all be reliable sources. --Ritchie333 (talk) 22:43, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks Richie. I will keep those points in mind if we ever get to a detailed review.--SabreBD (talk) 22:51, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

As I have had no response on the initial issues raised I have failed the article. It can always be renominated, but it would be best for someone wishing to do so to fix those issues first.--SabreBD (talk) 12:00, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

I'll make a start. The article has become very bloated and 'fanboy-ish'.  Yintan  10:48, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
