[rahh its karly]

scary, but good for them.

[underdawg1119]

i predict they will be as big if not bigger than fall out boy

congrats

[creepyvampire]

seems like they've just been touring constantly and working hard... paying off? amazing band, they will be huge. congrats!

[resUrectMe617]

i love these guysss. can't wait to see them next month in jersey.

[Asterix]

wow that was quick its crazy how quickly they've blown up :microwave

[xearlynovemberx]

i predict they will be as big if not bigger than fall out boy

congrats

i agree altho i dunt think they will EVER EVER be # 1 but then again major major labels(island and stuff) could be after them and they will blow up like fob

edit: i mean # 1 on trl

[HailTheHartBrak]

All the touring this band did to promote the cd paid off big time. Especially the tour with fall out boy, that was jack pot for them. Congrats to them, they have still remained the chill, awesome, polit, and humble dudes even though william does dance with a little more free spirit now.

[I am all talk]

They are that big? Already? I haven't been to their purevolume once ..... but I own the cd so i don't really need to. Congrats to them ....... Tate how is the Spill Canvas to 1mil crusade progressing? Should be picking up some steam now that those new songs are posted.

[vague___]

They totally deserve it. Amazing music/guys.

[CarlosNYC]

Damn! We can't even hit 100,000.

I wouldn't say these guys have blown up at all. Ive yet to find someone outside of this site who owns their album or even knows who they are...which in this current state of music isn't really a surprise to me but whatever. This band is so fucking good, I wish that each one of those 1 million listens represented an album sold. They definitely would be getting what they deserve then. In another albums time they will get the kind of success that Fall Out Boy is getting now, maybe not as big, but close....we all saw the FOB coming and this one should be the same for TAI.

Now I still haven't figured out why these past two or three weeks Hawthorne Heights has became huge all of a sudden. Like them or not you know that album has been out for a while as has "Ohio Is For Lovers" as a single. The local alternative/rock station just added the single a couple weeks ago and now all of a sudden its all over MTV? Was there some movement by Victory or something to push this and HH as their "it" band seeing as how TBS signed to a major label? Or did one of the endless supply of faceless no personality VJ's they have stumble upon the video and accidentally figure out how to press play?

[blink621]

awesome

[Stereo Therapy]

theyre basically following fall out boy, what with the incredible indie label release that blows up and gets the name out, and the soon-to-come billboard chart topping sophomore release... honestly im a big fan and i respect their work ethic but there are so many bands like them, seriously, i thought the pop punk fad ended years ago, i guess the mainstream just cant follow trends like i can, how embarrassing... well, congrats to them, theyre a very talented band

in unrealted news, the northstar dvd is positively amazing
