Hold On is such a fucking great album. i can't be the only one here who still gives it a listen on a regular basis.

You aren't. Top 10 favorite albums of all time for me, would KILL to see them reunite.

i never really got into them, but i have the Bayside/Name Taken split, and the songs they have on it are pretty solid.

That split with Bayside made them sound like the better band. I wish they would have taken off a bit from that and gotten some commercial success like Bayside has.

I still listen to this band all the time. They need to get back together. Those couple of shows they did in California were a fucking tease.

Hold On was pretty much the soundtrack to my life when it came out.

This album exposed me to the band and this is still my favourite song from them. Hold On got wiped from my iPod a couple years back and I kind of forgot about this band. I'll have to track down that album tonight!

downloaded Hold On and The Silent Game, the good responses from you guys definitely got me interested, and like i said, the split EP i have is solid, so ill have to give them a chance later.

Hold On is one of my all-time favorite albums and a huge influence for me, musically.

I started listening to them because of the appearance of Someone of the Warped 2002 compilation. I forgot about them for a while, but Hold On absolutely ruled my summer this year. It is such a good break-up/roadtrip album.

I started listening to them from Atticus Dragging The Lake, and got Hold On way later. I listen to it a lot now, and I love it so much. Such a great band.

Love 'em. Never got to see them live. Hold On is one of my favorite records that I always forget about. I still have a button promoting the release of Hold On on my purse.

Listen to, "A Year Spent Cold" by them. My favorite song by Name Taken. Such a highly under rated band.

This band is one of the ones I will forever regret never seeing live.
"The Safety Of Routine" is still one of my favorite songs.

there's been millions upon millions of threads here about these guys so, no you're not the only one who remembers them. not that another one isn't welcome. 'hold on' is top 10 of all time for me. i love this band more than many others. back in 04 i was supposed to get to see em and they dropped off the tour like a day before it hit us. BUMMER. anyway, one of my favorite bands ever.

good man. let hold on take you away. then move in to the silent game later on. but hold on is a huge grower.

Hold On is so good. Well before it's time. If you listen you can hear moments where all sorts of bands that are popular now are ripping them off.

I have their album, haven't listened to it in years though. "drive drive drive" used to be my shit, at least I think that's what the title was

yea man, the older stuff is good but Hold On is the band's most intelligent writing. the songs are catchy as hell too.

Just listened to Panic and unfortunately, all I can think is how Panic At The Disco most probably took their name from the songs lyrics. But I really like it. Need to give this more of a spin tomorrow.
