Talk:Afternoons (band)

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Please don't delete this page. Afternoons' collaboration with highly socially relevant political artist Shepard Fairey is certainly notable. The band is comprised of former members of Irving, which received moderate success through it's airplay on MTV2. Producer Tom Biller won a Grammy Award for Best Engineered Album for his word on Kanye West's album "Late Registration."[1] These are very notable collaborations and worthy of Afternoons place in Wikipedia.

[edit]

I'm of two minds about whether or not this meets the standard of Wikipedia:Notability (music)#Criteria for musicians and ensembles #6. The band seems to be some kind of continuation of Irving (band), which we have an article about. Darkspots (talk) 01:27, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Afternoons contains members of Irving, but the addition of Grammy Award winning producer Tom Biller (along with two other new members) makes it a separate entity entirely. The two bands are not similar in musical style, other than that they are both classified as Indie Rock. Many bands have "parent" bands just as many churches have parent churches, comprised of original members forming a new separate group. Often new bands have the exact same members under a new moniker, of which this is not the case. See Death Cab For Cutie = The Postal Service. Also the social and artistic collaboration with Shepard Fairey exists with Afternoons, not Irving. Irving is also the parent band of Sea Wolf via Alex Church and Aaron Burrows.
