Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Critical Mass (band)
the article is greatly improved over the version that was previously deleted.  I still have reservations about the award (being "equivalent to" a much bigger and more well-known award does not imply "the same as" the bigger award when it comes to notability--the San Francisco Bay Area "Bammie" awards are equivalent to the Grammies, but far from being the same when it comes to notability).  And most minor indie labels hook up with big distributors (or they don't survive), so having a big distributor is ''in no way'' equivalent to being on a "major label or important indie" (which is what  asks for).  But even with those and a couple of other more dubious claims to notability discounted, they do seem to meet the notability requirements.  Barely, perhaps, but barely is all that's asked for.  And, more importantly, |verifiability seems to be established
