Man, that Taken the Coast song is pretty awesome. It's definitely more Four Year Strong/Wonder Years than NFG though.

mr kite is good wow!

Hey my band, Man The Change, is giving away our EP for free at www.MTCFree.com RIYL: Alkaline Trio, Hot Water Music, Against Me

Check it out

that taken the coast song is pretty rad.

Think i've missed the submission, my my label has put out a free sampler which can be checked out here: http://disconnectdisconnectrecords.bandcam p.com/

RIYL: Melodic punk rock, pop punk, acoustic, melodic hardcore etc (a wide range of punk based stuff)

Taken the Coast is a jam

taken the coast is cool, wish i didnt hear the autotune correction soo much now in every genre. what happened to the days when there was beauty in imperfection?

All that can be said to you is blah blah blah

I really like the song by The Bay State but after googling them, it turns out this is the only song Susanne Gerry sings in. Usually it's Tom Tash. I'm reluctant to check out the rest of the songs now.

Taken The Coast is pretty good too.

The Buckeye Knoll song is blowing it up. There's almost a No Doubt thing going on with the female male vocals. Either way I'm digging it. Sampler's not bad either. Thanks.

The Bay State song is really good, but their RIYL is a little off-putting. I'd say for them, RIYL The Morning Of, Yellowcard, Hey Monday, Cartel

Didn't get to check these out yet because I'm at work, but I'm excited to listen to teamABC based on their RIYL, as well as Taken The Coast. Really appreciate these bands/AP doing this, I've found so many good bands through these over the past year.
