with this being the year of pop-punk and all, i figured that this band could deserve a thread.
they broke up two years ago, i think, but they put out two eps and a split with the wonder years.
anyone know these guys?

i like their ep the most i think. as i listen to it more and more.
but that "album" (if you can call it that) is amazing.
i wish these guys never broke up.
EDIT: "album" being Frozen Over, First in Line.

I lived with Taylor for a year and mixed all the Daylight stuff. I know them alright. :p
Someone wanted to put their stuff out, but it never worked out. Wouldn't be worth the investment.

Sounds like you're set. I was guessing that you didn't have the self titled EP, it took me a long time to find it because I never had money to buy it at the shows.

multiple times. unfortunately, never for a show.
saw some d-town native called mike pfiefer (or something) at a cigar parlor, but never anything else. and i didn't even want to go to the show, i was just bored on a first friday.
i was invited to see bangarang! when i was younger (and my music taste sucked) at siren records, but i declined. i'm kicking myself now for it.

Siren was great and so was the Moos Lodge. Unfortunately those venues are not allowed to have shows anymore because of all the noise complaints. They were the best venues I ever went to, and saw a lot of good bands play there. Now there's no venues that I know of in Doylestown to watch bands do their thing anymore.

It's just a shame because those two venues were really good, but the Moose Lodge actually had residents around it. Siren was good on Main Street until they moved on the same street as the Moose Lodge.
