Review A Current Affair!!

[birtcho]

Is drew married to a band?

[denissuxx]

Miss Deringer?

[Wait_For_It]

Shorelines please!

[Crossfade]

The Radiance Effect is highly recommended. (Music's similar to Anberlin)
Shorelines is way above average pop-punk.
A Current Affair reminds me a lot of Scary Kids Scaring Kids. In a good way.

My band Yeah Detroit is on the list. Really hoping we get a review. It's our first recording and it's always kind of hard to judge how good your own songs are when you've heard them hundreds of times!
