Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Them Terribles
The Santa Barbara Independent is definitely a good enough reference, they have editors, therefore they are reliable.  #1 does not exclude local papers and I don't see why it should. (Bands from out of town get covered in local papers too, and that also contributes to their notability.) Together with the other cited references (MTV etc) this article passes  #1
