Claim to notability is for having "pioneered" their sound, but there is no reference to support this claim. Signed to indie label that does not appear to lend to the band's notability. No charting singles or compilation album participation. No notable members. Delete. لennavecia 12:43, 12 June 2009 (UTC) لennavecia 12:43, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. It seems a little unfair to expect a hardcore punk band to be able to show charting singles. A cursory google turns up coverage in a newspaper and a music mag, and the article already cites coverage at allmusic. They appear to be well clear of the bar.

- Keep per Flowerparty, sufficient sources exist to meet the general notability guideline/C1 of WP:BAND. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 18:20, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Article had been deleted earlier for the same reason of non-notability on 16 December 2007. I had asked (User_talk:East718#Undelete Starkweather (band)) the deletor to undelete the 27 edits. Jay (talk) 06:45, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
