Same, and The Static Cult.

highways has like a hey monday feel to them just there lead singer can sing live and not sound like shit.

The passenger is really good, checking out mantra and attalus as well

Really liking the sound of Mantra.

The Eric Daino Ensemble is pretty wild, i dig


edit: Hello Cheif isnt bad either

Everyone please check out Attalus! I play bass in the band. We're about halfway done recording our proper debut full-length. Just a heads up, The Greater Tide EP was something we did to just get some of our songs out, since we didn't have any money, it was recorded in our guitarists bedroom and it wasn't mastered, so we are fully aware that the production quality is lacking.

good stuff

everyone check out the Attalus ep, they're good friends of mine and the music is great

American Diary's ep is sick

I highly recommend you guys check out Pete Davis and Invalids.

Big Hurry are streaming their album on http://liisten.com. Every week a new [good] unsigned band

Hello Chief's live album is sick, you guys should definitely check it out.
