I'm quick-failing this article because it features numerous issues which I seriously doubt can be adequately dealt with in a week:

This article features a {{Refimprove}} tag, making it an immediate quick-fail.
There are many unsourced paragraphs throughout the article, and what looks like some original research in the Live performances section.
There is no Musical style section, describing the genre of music this band plays. This is essential for an article on a band.
Violation of Fair Use on the first two pictures in the History section.
Various stylistic issues: citations aren't properly formatted (see WP:CITE#HOW), and there are many one- and two-sentence paragraphs.

Other things to note:

In future, please check articles you plan to nominate for Good Article against the Good Article Criteria to ensure there are no major flaws in the article.
This article was listed as a "Miscellaneous" GAN; it should have been listed under "Music".
