Saw Twin Atlantic support The Matches last year, and I thought they were pretty good. They reminded me of Biffy Clyro.

[Heroin Robot]

Mew

[matt_rawlings]

Review Mew please

[NateGolubiewski]

Inward Eye, Mew, and Twin Atlantic are good listens

[Jacktheskipper]

Such Gold should be awesome ....

[inthemidst]

I didn't know Ruth released a new EP; I'll definitely be checking that out.

[rachellethrash]

Such Gold, Mew, and Deadlights are rad.
Pacifico, The Depreiation Guild, bored me, personally.
Walk the Rio and The Lovemakers aren't bad.
No Inside's vocals are incredibly nasal-y, and not in an appealing way.
The Bodies Obtained was too experimental for me.

[InaGreendase]

Most people listening to that Deadlights EP for the first time would probably say "Great, more of this shit," but it's really not bad. http://www.punknews.org/review/8335

[finneyerkes]

we're personally pulling for Finneyerkes
haha
but seriously
enjoy it guys
we'd love to hear some feedback
take care!

[motioneso]

[awakeohsleeper]

Someone should review Ruth. Their first two albums were solid.

[wahwah16]

Such Gold is so gooood

[Nardes]

LOVE The Elms... you guys should get to know them :)

[mrshamoozoo1481]

[Tim Luckow]

Ian Walsh - Seeing Stars

This record is great! For anyone who digs The All American Rejects, Sparks The Rescue, Push Play, that sort of rock, these guys take that to the next level.

[finneyerkes]

yeah
definitely Finneyerkes :p

[SgtSexCrime]

Somebody should review White Devil. The EP sounds surprisingly good for a home recording.

[timbokiller]

Such Gold is playing with I Call Fives at Saint Rose in Albany, NY on Aug 22nd.

The Elms are ridiculously good.
