In addition to satisfying the  notability requirements described by Ozzykhan above, the artist meets the primary criterion of notability, which is "subject of multiple non-trivial published works".  In addition to the brief mention in ''Edmonton Journal'' article above, note reviews in http://www.stylusmagazine.com/reviews/chad-vangaalen/skelliconnection.htm Stylus Magazine, http://www.seattleweekly.com/music/0644/cdreviews.php ''Seattle Weekly''; and http://www.prefixmag.com/reviews/cds/C/chad-vangaalen/infiniheart/911 Prefix Mag; reviews in major music websites like http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/record_review/38035/Chad_VanGaalen_Skelliconnection Pitchfork, http://www.stereogum.com/archives/002881.html Stereogum and http://www.cokemachineglow.com/reviews/vangaalen_infiniheart2005.html Coke Machine Glow; feature on http://www.nerve.com/screeningroom/music/chadvangaalen/ Nerve.com; a profile on freaking http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/vangaalen__chad/artist.jhtml MTV.com. Oh, also in addition to the above, http://www.metacritic.com/music/artists/vangaalenchad/skelliconnection?q=chad%20vangaalen Metacritic says he's been reviewed by ''URB'', ''Under the Radar'', ''The A.V. Club|The Onion (A.V. Club)'', and All Music Guide|AMG. Seems pretty notable
