Best old Drive Thru band: Part Two

[fadedmemories]

The old thread can be found here (http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=803662).

I added SoCo since I forgot about them in the other poll, and some other bands as well.

[Burn That Shit]

RX Bandits!

[MADSTA]

SoCo!

[LongDistanceDrunk]

I don't know what's considered "old" but Steel train has been on Drive Thru since 2002

This...and The Early November without a doubt

All the bands listed are from the MCA glory days of Drive-Thru (except TEN, but don't quote me). I think that is what the person who posted this was going for.

Anyway...

I picked Fenix. They still hold a special place in my heart. I actually own every album made by every one of those bands. Now that I think about it, they are all great!

(I honestly don't care because I wouldn't have voted for them but you forgot Homegrown, lol)

I understand that but having Early November in there is kind of weird. They don't belong in this poll.

In what way?

[domotime2]

In what way?
does it matter...people who would pick early november or steel train in the first place should be placed inside a box.

[domotime2]

but btw if you want to do old school drive thru bands....u should include homegrown on the list, alhough they wouldnt crack my top 3 list.

[allthruwinter]

All of those bands are kind of the best, except fenix tx. They blew. I went with NFG though, gotta pay respect where respect is due.

[batmannj]

i voted for something corporate but it was a tough choice.

[recall reality]

Rx Bandits

[bluecrunchy]

Where's Home Grown?

[Basketcase]

RIP Drive Thru (1998 - 2002)

it all went downhill after '02

[Co and Ca]

The Early November

[Mirrorsandfevers]

The Early November, specifically because they're not making music anymore.

i disagree buddy. "the room's too cold" came out in 2003, and that is one of my all time favorite records. also, "life in dreaming" (hipv) came out in 2005, which is also a super solid record. TEN and HIPV are the two best dtr bands of the later years.

[blinkme]

there was a similar post to this the other day but with less bands to choose from.

the starting line wins it for me with nfg just behind. then it's a battle for third place between soco and ten.

I made that poll as well :-d

[TangledUp]

NFG followed by Midtown.

[voncorn]

My vote goes to The Movielife, yet again.

[m_rue]

I had to go with tsl... although I absolutely adored Soco as well.

[notoaststereo]

any drive thru thread my answer will always be the movielife

[iseejosh]

if the early november is on there senses fail should be on.

[lalalalovely]

Where's Home Grown?

This.

But even if they had been on there I would have gone with Midtown. TEN was a close second though, ridiculously hard choice.

If Homegrown was here, I doubt they'd be in the top 5 of this poll.

[Digitalcursive]

This poll hurts because all those bands were so good. How the hell can I pick one without second guessing myself =(

[phil19]

tough call between NFG and the movielife. went with NFG mainly because they're still around

[domotime2]

i hate the starting line.

[VIVALAMATT]

The answer is The Early November

NFG only released one thing that I liked on DTR, which was Sticks. Everything after that was partially Geffen, if I'm correct.

[VIVALAMATT]

ugh it pisses me off that more people picked the Starting Line and Something Corporate than The Early November. those bands cant hold a stick to the albums that TEN put out.

[halifaxonfire]

extremely difficult choice, but i voted for The Early November

[DejaNew]

SoCo. Still listen to them occasionally.

[SeanEBoy2686]

I don't know what's considered "old" but Steel train has been on Drive Thru since 2002

And if I'm not mistaken, Dashboard Confessional were there as well.

My vote is for SoCo... but on another day it could've easily been NFG. There really isn't a bad band on that list, but SoCo and NFG (and maybe The Starting Line) top it for me.

[iaminsane20]

during all said band's dtr year's:

the early november ftw.

[tragedyco]

hands down something corporate.

[Smooz]

I was torn between RXB, the Movielife, and Finch. Those bands were my life back in 8th grade.

[Kurt Retenauer]

soco..undoubtedly.

[HoldThatSound]

the starting line. hands down.

the movielife is a close second.


then it's early november

[circatbs]

Early November, bitches!

[Everiggs]

Can I sell this sunrise
In return for a sunset yeeeeeeeah!

TSL.

[fadedmemories]

lol wut @ allister and fenix getting a combined 15 posts.

[midtown4657]

The Benjamins.

[fadedmemories]

The Benjamins.
I feel honored to have a band member post in my thread :-d

[BigAl]

Kenny V.

[brokenhats]

sorry i dont think homegrown should be on there in my opinion, i only liked kings of pop

i choose new found glory, very close midtown and then finch cause mother fuckers put on a good show

[ckunh]

Awesome question... I went with RX cuz they had several great albums as opposed to Finch who had only one.

[fadedmemories]

Cool to see that some red and blue names have voted in this poll.

[superichie]

Of course its NFG. Was there any doubt?

[Alex DiVincenzo]

Can't top NFG

[JoeForPresident]

NFG
and allister was mad good too

[UnderMyDreams]

Holy shit Drive Thru dominated way back.

[brandnew=love]

I picked SoCo...

[mybreakingpoint]

RX Bandits are the most talented, i listen to Midtown the most, and i adore the Movielife.

i went with RXB.

[mybreakingpoint]

also, i love Cousin Oliver.

[caress me down]

RX is better than any band up there.

[shortone1320]

I went with SoCo, too easy for me

[justletgo]

Voted Movielife and the last poll, and am sticking with my answer.
