Say Anything (http://www.sayanythingmusic.com), Cartel (http://www.cartelrocks.com), Action Action (http://www.action-action.com), and Clear Static (http://www.clearstaticmusic.com) are the competitors for this month's Yahoo's "Who's Next?" (http://music.yahoo.com/promotions/whosnext/) competition. Make sure to check out Say Anything's new video for "Alive With the Glory of Love" as well as Cartel's video for "Honestly" while you're over there.

if Say Anything doesn't run away with this one something is terribly wrong.

No shit. I like Cartel and all, but Say Anything trumps just about everything.

[dafockup]

clear static is the best band in this, they should win, make sure to check out their video as well

[Jason Tate]

Man, totally sucks for Cartel. Maybe they can pull off the upset.

I wouldn't be surprised if Action Action wins (Victory have a way of find ways to have their bands win things) and Clear Static are all over the TV out here .. so.. we'll see.

I voted for SA and Cartel.

Did you listen to any of them? Or just make that statement?

[dang]

ive never seen the say anything video... i have to say its nothing too special.

i might just have to vote for cartel though, because i can see them becoming popular and all that, whereas i want say anything to kind of stay less mainstream and keep them to myself. so im voting cartel simply because i like say anything more

you are sick.

wait, you lost me there. You've never seen the video, yet you know it's nothing too special, how can you know that? Maybe I'm misreading, all this Shakespeare is getting to me, but wow.

It's a tough call, but I think Cartel has the perfect spot to be the fill in for all the fans isolated by Yellowcard's new album. I see them being big first, though I like Say Anything more. Gonna be a tough vote

[dafockup]

False.

i should argue with you on this, cuz clear static is an amazing band, but since u are a duke fan i wont say a word other than i do love clear static and i think everyone should check them out!! :)

Clear Static is almost definately coming in fourth on this poll.
Say Anything and Cartel...I can't say which will win.

[DeathCabForCoon]

I voted Cartel, I think they deserve it the most out of all of them. They are so hardworking

[Killforgrace]

say anything should win... then cartel but prob action action will win... any idea when max is gonna come out w/ some new stuff?

[elonman05]

I'm really an idiot right now. Where is this competition you guys speak of?

[ACA]

Did you listen to any of them? Or just make that statement?

I have both Action Action albums; I've seen them live once. They have a few decent songs (like three), but most of it isn't good. They are tight live, but that doesn't help when most of their songs aren't worth listening to in the first place.

I have Cartel's EP in both forms and Chroma; I've seen them live once or twice. An average live show; the big bass drums are a nice touch on that one song. Luckie St. is honestly their standout track by far--the energy is there for it. If Cartel picks up on that, they could show promise.. but Chroma drags.

Say Anything, I have a few albums/EPs/whatevers--never seen live. I've listened to a lot of various demos (usually said to be his best stuff), too, trying to see why people get on board for this stuff. It's nothing amazing; average might be a good word.

Clear Static, my oppinion is based solely on four or five songs I've heard (do they have an album or EP?). This would be my most ignorant statement, but I do believe based on what I've heard that it's true--they are not great by any means.

i meant, i hadn't seen the video before that link was posted to vote. i didnt even know there was a video for that song out. so i hadn't seen the video, but when i saw it, i thought it wasnt anything special

[shagelific]

i love action action. but if say anything doesnt win its a shame. they are really in a whole other league compared to these bands.

[Chriz2z]

This is hard to pick

Damn, Yahoo, won't let Firefox play videos

[Let's get away.]

I like when max plays guitar better, he is sort of an awkward frontman.

[iihungrieii]

im voting for cartel! i would have to pick them over say anything... i guess because i havent seen say anything live yet.

[BrokenWindow]

How many times can one person vote?

[AHMYBRAIN]

Say Anything, though Cartel is fantastic as well.

[JIMMYateEARTH]

I'm TORN between SAY ANYTHING and CARTEL, but I will have to go with Say Anything I have loved them longer. But they both deserve very much

[monstersonmaple]

Say Anything really is, i was obsessed with this album when it came out. They deserve to win over all the other bands even though i really like Cartel alot. Action Action is just another mediocre Victory band that dosen't deserve the status they have. Clear Static im not familiar with so im going to have to check them out.

[ktb3]

This is the first time I have ever posted anything on this site...but anyway this should definately come down to Cartel and Say Anything. I have been listening to Say Anything for a while and think they are unbelievable and voted for them. I think Max Bemis is a genius and cant do much wrong when it comes to writing songs. Cartel also is an excellent band. I havent ever heard better vocals from a pop/punk band. All of their songs are catchy and whoever said Chroma drags is dead wrong. Sure Luckie St. may be a great song, but it does not stand out as being a ton better than the rest of the songs on the album. I wouldnt even call it the best song on the album, for me that is The Minstrel's Prayer, which isnt an easy choice. I voted for Say Anything, but it was difficult as I find both bands to be talented in their own way. I've never listened to Clear Static so I didnt give them much of a chance, and if anyone thinks Action Action is a better band than either Say Anything or Cartel they are gravely mistaken.

[thebestkylever]

gahhh this is like trying to choose between sex and a saves the day show.

[youareallfreaks]

SA is the clear choice.

[Go Analog Baby]

Say Anything.

[ctsfan1]

action action

[Isbu]

Say Anything all the way. I voted until it wouldn't let me vote anymore. Those guys that said they hadn't seen that video before, it just came out.

[joeshmoe909]

Cartel....all awsome bands plus with Parker touring with SA wow real tough call

[CorporateFish]

Go Cartel!

[juan_believes]

as much as i love cartel, i'm gonna have to go with say anything on this one. tough choice though.

[piaffeprncess98]

Is anyone having trouble accessing Cartel's site? I get to the main page, but I can't get any other content when I click on the link to the actual site.

[Pat Brown]

I'm surprised how quickly they got Alive with the Glory of Love made. It seems like just yesterday I found out that the myspace invitation had lied about the date. It was actually a Thursday when the myspace invite said friday. I was so excited to go.

[xearlynovemberx]

wow , this guys an idiot.

wow its called an opinon buddy and i agree none of the bands are that great

[Shatter_Glass]

say anything, hands down. Even fi the video is half-ass, it's the best band

[TheWoj]

Chroma and ...Is A Real Boy are two of my favorite albums, so this is a tough call.
I'll just give em one vote each from different computers in the house.
Seems fair.

[andtheyslept]

sweet

[LeftWideOpen]

how the FUCK do you stop that Cartel add w/ Will talking. Every time I go to a new page, it pops up. I'm going insane.
