[Alex DiVincenzo]

Walls of Jericho, to see if they can redeem themselves from that horrendous acoustic EP
Feels Like July, because they're an awesome local band
Osaka Popstar, because even then though I'm not a fan of live stuff their debut was a lot of fun and their members come from my favorite bands

[Freddawg]

Please review Crisis In Hollywood!

[skubala]

The Common Kings - Heavy Lies The Crown.

I think this is a pretty solid collection of songs. Im interested in seeing what you would have to say about it.

[billiejoeman12]

Review Crisis in Hollywood's album Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea! They are going in the studio with Anthony from Bayside, so it would be good to get something on here!

[sansanone]

The Common Kings have become a great band to look up to, here in Buffalo. Their music is really great to listen to and sing along to, and their concerts are a one-of-a-kind experience! All the guys have worked really hard to create songs that people will love, and with this second album theyve done all that and then some. They are wonderful artists with a great talent and I couldn't be more of a fan!
