Keep - there are lots of sources out there stating that each individual band is 'speed metal', plus this article doesn't really need any sources other than that anyway. Samwb123^T-C-E 05:32, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep A notable list of musicians by a notable genre. The list has a clear inclusion criteria. I feel this is a POINTY nomination by Curb Chain, after a similar list was kept. Lugnuts (talk) 08:21, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per similar deletion discussions at list of synthpop artists and list of power metal bands, and also: AfD is not clean-up. If sources are missing, people should look for them before nominating for deletion. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 01:17, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

But sources have been lacking for over 2 years. If noone wants to do that, then it usually gets deleted.Curb Chain (talk) 09:01, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
