Delete. If they WERE on XL Recordings, which is a pretty major company (they'd be labelmates with Radiohead) , I'd say they were notable, but the band's discography in the article itself doesn't indicate any XL releases, and there's no mention of them on XL's website either. Searching "Kid Harpoon" comes up with nada, and a quick search didn't come up with any notable coverage either. Changing to keep, on grounds of usefulness.

Delete per Ford MF. --JulesN Talk 20:28, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep But it does need refs. P.B. Pilhet 21:40, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
keep, this seems to imply notability. And maybe these: [1], [2], [3]. Corvus cornix_talk 23:04, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as above. I found my way here looking for information on the band, so it was useful to me, at least. --Grace (talk) 01:53, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Huh. Well, that's good enough for me. Ford MF (talk) 18:35, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
