The Movielife

After hearing I Am The Avalanche's new demos, I might consider them as good, if not better than The Movielife

i'd love to say From Autumn to Ashes because no one else will, but i had to vote Brand New. regardless of the fact that they win every single poll, they're my favorite band

It's a disgrace that Head Automatica is on this list and Glassjaw isn't. Huge foul from the original poster.

Bayside, followed closely by The Movielife and Crime in Stereo.

Honorable mentions to everyone else except Dream Theater, Head Automatica, and Envy.

Bayside followed by TBS. Imo Brand New shouldn't have been included in the poll for obvious reasons.
agreed.
i went with bayside as well

Why you hating on Head Automatica? They're a pretty legit band,....doesn't matter anyway, neither one of them would have a chance of winning this poll.

logantogovcentr

03/15/09, 07:50 PM

the correct answer is SILENT MAJORITY

logantogovcentr

03/15/09, 07:52 PM

and Bridge & Tunnel is pretty damn sweet, too. but, you know, half of these bands wouldn't exist if it wasn't for Silent Majority.

flks511

03/15/09, 09:05 PM

So do you even know who Glassjaw is and how that fits in with Head Automatica?.
Cuz Palumbo was in both? Yeah, but that shouldn't have anything to do with the poll, I just left Glassjaw out, because they had no chance.

Where's This Is Hell?

Yeah, why aren't they on the list?

I love Brand New, Straylight, Bayside, Movielife and CIS [and TIH]. I don't know that I can pick.

notoaststereo

03/16/09, 09:25 AM

glassjaw should be on this... bayside is technically from queens. either way though: The Movielife or I Am The Avalanche provided those demos turn into real songs.

I was saying that the two shouldn't be compared, they're different bands and it doesn't matter if I left one of them out, the point of the poll is to pick from the ones actually on the poll.

fishingthe_sky

03/17/09, 09:28 PM

First off, Glassjaw's omission is criminal; while I like HA, there's no way they should be here in as representing Daryl Palumbo. Brand New should have been omitted for the sheer fact that there's no contest with them in this field. Disregarding Brand New, Crime In Stereo is the best band here, followed by The Movielife. However, shame on you for leaving out As Tall As Lions.

It's also too bad that nobody knows The Stryder. Criminally underrated LI band from the earlier part of this decade.

the movielife.
it was tough between brand new & them
but i thought i'd give the movielife the vote that brand new don't need.

lol Glassjaw would definitely finish in the top 3 on this website...way above Head Automatica - way better choice than Dream Theater. My friend always has that playing at his house when we play poker and I hate it so much.

I didn't even know Dream Theatre was from Long Island

I'm shocked that Envy On The Coast has seven times the votes of HA.

03/19/09, 03:31 PM

Brand New. Also like Dream Theater and From Autumn to Ashes (old stuff).

I love Bayside, Envy On the Coast, Brand New, and Head Automatica, but the Movielife takes the win.

03/20/09, 07:45 PM

I can't choose. I've been listening to Taking Back Sunday for forever, but recently I've been more into Bayside. :shrug:

Brand New, hands down.

lucky#88

03/20/09, 08:37 PM

tough question but for me it has to be bayside...pretty much everything they have ever put out is amazing...but still love brand new, tbs and crime in stereo

Glassjaw should be on this.

Agreed completely.

Glassjaw > The Movielife > TBS > From Autumn To Ashes

just-in.

03/22/09, 10:18 AM

Hard choice between Brand New, Crime In Stereo, and The Movielife. I went with Brand New though.

Bayside is one of my favourite bands, but so is Brand New.
Straylight Run and Taking Back Sunday are also great.
But, I have to go with Brand New.

Alex DiVincenzo

03/23/09, 12:50 PM

Bayside... but why is HA listed by not Glassjaw?

WasteofPaint31

03/23/09, 02:20 PM

I go with Bayside, Brand New is a close second, and From Autumn to Ashes isn't too far off the pace either

Yellowcard2006

03/23/09, 04:25 PM

Ugh Brand New wins EVERYTHING. It's only cause it's on this site you know /rant

I went with TBS

03/24/09, 07:45 AM

That was such a hard poll but i went with crime in stereo seeing as their progression from each album is great (kinda like brand new's progression) for a hardcore act.

DaveZeroZero

03/24/09, 09:34 AM

The Sleeping should feature on that list, but I'd still vote for Brand New either way.

You Won't Know

03/24/09, 11:06 AM

Glassjaw should be on this.

EXACTLY what I was thinking.

I voted for Brand New but obviously there's an amazing group of bands that came from Long Island.

wheresadalia

03/24/09, 12:10 PM

envy on the coast
tough choice though

klawansie7

03/25/09, 11:39 AM

brand new is going to win, just because we're on AP.net and everyone here is a brand new freak.
nontheless, i voted bayside.
