In the Land of Lost Monsters was incredible, just like everything else Gastby's ever put out. They will always be one of my very favorite bands ever.

Very easily one of the best bands around right now. Planet of Ice and Menos El Oso are absolutely incredible albums, of which I've yet to tire. I tend to not like when bands get pimped by MTV, but I...

Next time you try to be a pretentious prick you should probably spellcheck. It's not "upsurd" it's "absurd".

I can't stand some of the narrow-minded jackasses that comment on punknews...but then again there are some of those here as well. There's bias, and then there's douchebaggery.

As much as I love Gatsby's, they'll never make a top 25 list like this because it's not what they're about. They play to much smaller venues and don't try to pander to anyone, but rather just play an...

Yeah, that's why I clarified and said strictly with the major labels. Otherwise we could say TREOS did since they release BTHATS with Triple Crown since technically they're a part of Warner music.

Haven't given them enough of a listen to judge, but by major I'm talking about the serious major record labels like: Universal, Sony, EMI, BMG, and Warner Bros (for clarification).

When was the last time a really good band signed to a major record label and put out a really good album thereafter?

No, he's 100% right about that. TBS should not ever be mentioned in the same sentence as many of the bands on that top 25 list. Really sweet hair-dos don't make up for horribly off key vocals and...

Thrice isn't a "scene" band. If you go to the show, get in the crowd and just listen to the music, you'll be blown away.

Replace any mention of MCR/AFI with Thrice and that'll be fine. Deadbolt live could make the comatose come alive.
