I've listed this article for peer review because…
I started editing this page about two years ago, wishing to create a comprehensive encyclopedic article for a band that has very little information about them available on the internet, and because their history is interesting enough and their sound is varied enough to (hopefully) warrant an extensive biography. Unfortunately, I have been - for the most part - the only person to edit/add to this article; with no one else to reign me in (it's quite addictive to keep adding onto an article), it makes it rather difficult for me to realize when I'm following WikiPedia's standards and when I'm not.
I would very much like to see this become featured one day, but if not, that's okay. I'd just like for an official to give it a quick glance over and lend some pointers to set it on the right track, hopefully to FAS or at least Good Article Status :)

- Impressive work Skibz, don't have time to review so much good stuff just now, but you've answered lots of questions I had, having encountered references to the band in various places. Good luck with review processes, they can be exacting and time consuming. I'm guessing, but I think a quick review to GA, followed by a more leisurely and comprehensive review to FA might be the way to go. Best luck. Alastair Haines (talk) 04:40, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

- The article needs some serious copyediting. Far too often ten words are used where one will do, and the accompanying floweriness makes this article somewhat of a chore to read for a non-fan. Read and understand WP:TONE and WP:PEACOCK.
- I removed the album cover (it violated Wikipedia's fair use policy since it's already used in the album article).
- Claims made about the rise and fall of various genres' popularity need citations.
That's about as far as I'm willing to go right now...you already have plenty on your plate :) —Zeagler (talk) 02:00, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
