Attn Unsigned/Small Bands/Big Bands: If you think your band has a song that can compete with bands like Four Year Strong or Barely Blind, email me at Nathan.Lint@absolutepunk.net. There are just two guidelines we ask you to follow. 1) Please no complaints if your band is not selected - this will not help your cause. 2) The song must be off an actual release, not a demo you've been nursing for later and so on. Good luck!

my friend is trying to book a show with them sometime in november in netcong, so keep your eyes peeled.

[eversoinviting]

FYS. Looks like they've hopped out to a large,early lead.

Uhhh, it's not a Punchline song. It's a Barely Blind song, featuring someone from Punchline. ;)

[tm decomposer]

bb

[secondaryjon]

four year strong is much catchier

[SJms1026]

Four Year Strong.

I liked the other song a lot, though.

[airik625]

-_-

[petey536]

FYS is way overrated

[zachff]

FYS is way overrated

as long as i wasn't the first one to say it.

[WestonB]

They sound like a Panic at the disco and they need to create theyre own sound, im really digging the BB thing though.....

[ZoSo1886]

since my friend bailed on saves the day tonight, this made my day

i listen to it once per day, at the gym, 35 minutes is the perfect workout CD.

[yiannis pants]

yes i said punchline but i didn't it i was just so eager im sry i love u all still wanna love me long time call me for a good time

[iaminsane20]

FYS by far.

[311thrice]

FYS is way overrated

You speak nothing but truth. I don't see how this site goes crazy for them. I don't get it.

[TheWoj]

I gotta go with FYS because I'm in love with every song on the album, but I really gotta give it to Barely Blind because that song is really good and I want to hear more of their stuff.

[i<3ny]

They sound like a Panic at the disco and they need to create theyre own sound, im really digging the BB thing though.....
how do they saound anythign like panic at the disco
does panic have break downs... nope no they dont
does panic have amazing drumming..... nope again they dont
and does panic have dueling vocals......ooooooo no!
so yah i mean i could go on but i think we all get the point they sound nothing like panic

[absolution]

barely blind

[kearn1tm]

Four Year Strong by far. Barely Blind's Crazy just sounds obnoxious to me.

[spezialk]

as long as i wasn't the first one to say it.


You amuse me.
FYS is catchy, fun, upbeat, and just crazy.
AP hyped them up because they deserve it.
Awesome band, great dudes.
They got my vote.

[anyhizzy]

fys, obviously. im a sucker for catchy fun bands that i dont have to take too seriously.

[sursumcorda]

They sound like a Panic at the disco and they need to create theyre own sound, im really digging the BB thing though.....

Whoa.. are we talking about the same band?

Anyway..

Did the haters ever stop to think that FYS is hyped because they are a talented, good band?

But then again I forgot we're in a scene that loves to hate on bands too many people start enjoying. It's happened to even the best bands and it will happen to FYS but that doesnt make them any less amazing.

[captainamazing4]

if only i could vote for someone other than FYS lol

[edd9532]

They sound like a Panic at the disco and they need to create theyre own sound, im really digging the BB thing though.....

yeah i agree im down witht he BB

[dat scene kid]

FYS...BB is pretty catchy, but nothing can top FYS in the catchiness category as far as im concerned

[victoriasdf]

i have listened to the four year strong CD no less than once a day for about 2 months now, too bad they arent coming to jersey

just saw them in jersey.
with mayday and alesana.
such a good show.

[altemose09]

i listen to it once per day, at the gym, 35 minutes is the perfect workout CD.
i would give it a try but i dont work out. i like listening to it at work though.

[Miss Heartcore]

FYS all the way even though the demo of this song is way better than the album one

[AEast317]

so how long can a song reign on king of the hill?

b/c i dont see FYS getting beaten.


im other news, you guys should put a wonder years song up on here.

[fromoc2dc]

I went with FYS, but I was surprised by how much I liked Barely Blind's song. Quite catchy.

[fromoc2dc]

i listen to it once per day, at the gym, 35 minutes is the perfect workout CD.

FYS and Set Your Goals are all I listen to at the gym, I just alternate them.

[WFUJerseyJon]

the question is who will be able to eventually take four year strong out? cuz i don't see them goin anywhere in this right now.

[Kurt Retenauer]

how do they saound anythign like panic at the disco
does panic have break downs... nope no they dont
does panic have amazing drumming..... nope again they dont
and does panic have dueling vocals......ooooooo no!
so yah i mean i could go on but i think we all get the point they sound nothing like panic

i think panic has better vocals..

[concreteboy]

FYS is way overrated

I'm saying, give me Set Your Goals over these dudes any day. If I wanted to hear this I'd listen to Valencia.

[presedona_bass]

four years strong hands down not even close

[gahbee__x]

Voted for FYS because the other one almost made me fall asleep because of how boring it was.

[Ruggiero2oo8]

Four Year Strong.

[Protested Hero]

FYS by far. Such a great album.

It was strange, I walked into my local Hot Topic the other day and Four Year Strong (Heroes Get Remembered) was playing. Probably because I live in Massachusetts.

[i<3ny]

i think panic has better vocals..
yah you probably think britney spears is a great singer too.

[Kurt Retenauer]

yah you probably think britney spears is a great singer too.

i wouldn't go that far, but brendon urie has a hell of a voice. don't take that from him. just because it's cool not to like panic doesn't give an open end to just bash the hell out of them.

[altemose09]

so how long can a song reign on king of the hill?

b/c i dont see FYS getting beaten.

hell yeah, Bout To Get Fruit Punched, Homie would beat this song

[sarahb]

I'm saying, give me Set Your Goals over these dudes any day. If I wanted to hear this I'd listen to Valencia.

Oh FUCK THAT. Valencia wishes they were 4YS

[FalloutGuy]

Well based on the avatar...you know who I voted for.

[concreteboy]

Oh FUCK THAT. Valencia wishes they were 4YS

i just heard Valencia first, maybe thats where this came from. don't get me wrong, the album is catchy ass hell, i just prefer the heart of SYG to the broken heart of FYS, thats all. both good bands.

[MenAreFromMars]

Is this a fucking joke? Barely Blind sounds like it has a girl singing the vocals. That or a very flamboyant male. Four Year Strong will kick anybody's ass, especially with Bada Bing.

[fatexfellxshort]

four year strong for sure!

[mjr20]
