Seems like a short and promising article. I'll be happy to review it soon. 100cellsman (talk) 06:19, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

• Hi 100cellsman! I didn't know if you were still interested in reviewing this for NicHT495. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:41, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

I am! I just haven't gotten around to it yet. 100cellsman (talk) 17:52, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

So NicHT495, I'm pretty satisfied with the article, though I will fix some minor issues that wouldn't be worth putting into words.

I just have a few pointers:

• It's usually advised not to place inline citations in the lead unless controversial claims are being made in it.
• I recommend incorporating the origin of their band name in the history section. Just after it states that the group was formed in 2009.
• "The band claimed" change "Claimed" to "Stated"
• "In the meantime," is unnecessary.
• "showcased the band's trademark atmosphere" I'm not certain of whether or not "trademark" is neutral.
• Joe Talbot saying that Bambara is his favorite band and Alexis S.F. Marshall saying that Shadow on Everything is his favorite 2018 album are both unneeded and unneutral.
• I would indicate that Colin Joyce is a writer for Noisey.
• Hi 100cellsman - the student hasn't returned since the 10th, so I've gone ahead and made these tweaks for you. Let me know if I missed anything. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:34, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

Thanks! I'll go ahead and pass the article while fixing a couple things I forgot to mention. 100cellsman (talk) 19:39, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
