Notes:
Notable Songs:
Dipshit (9/10)
One Slowdance (9/10)
Above Me (8/10)
Notes:
A great punk band that is emotionally charged. Everything on “Perhaps, I suppose” is just awesome, especially the first 6 songs.
Coming soon
Notable Songs:
She Found You (9/10)
Ordinary Life (7/10)
Regret (7/10)
Notes:
I guess they are classic, older emo.
Notable Songs:
Shoulder to the Wheel (9/10)
Rocks Tonic Juice Magic (8/10)
At Your Funeral (8/10)
Notes:
Another popular rock/emo band. Check out any of those songs and you will get a clear sense of their style.
Notable Songs:
I’m Just a Kid (9/10)
I’d Do Anything (7/10)
When I’m with you (7/10)
Notes:
They are very poppy and repetitive, still you might find yourself singing the lyrics to I’m Just a Kid because that song is pretty sweet.
Notable Songs:
Hurricane (10/10)
Straw Dog (9/10)
Konstantine (8/10)
Notes:
Good but I would say a little overrated. You might ask then why I gave such high ratings? Because those songs are really good, especially Hurricane (which you can see I gave a 10), but after that I feel the songs drop off a little. There is good piano in this band though.
Coming Soon
Notable Songs:
Best of Me (9/10)
Saddest Girl Story (9/10)
Greg’s Last Day (9/10)
Notes:
Okay, some say they are an NFG rip-off but I definitely think they have their own distinct sound. The songs are great, some others you might want to check out: Three’s a Charm, Cheek to Cheek (probably most popular), and Left Coast Envy. If you’re going away to college as I am in a less than a year, watch out for Greg’s Last Day, it almost made me cry (though I would like to make sure you note that I didn’t actually cry).
Notable Songs:
Fat Lip (9/10)
Makes No Difference (9/10)
Motivation (8/10)
Notes:
I can see the resemblance to Blink, but is that really such a bad thing? I don’t think so and neither do a lot of people. Other songs to download: In Too Deep, All She’s Got, and Rythms.
Notable Songs:
You’re So Last Summer (10/10)
Cute without the e (Cut from the Team) (9/10)
There’s no I in Team (9/10)
Notes:
Real sweet. Awesome emotion. They commonly do that thing where one person is singing one lyrics and someone else is singing others in the background, sounds really good!
Notable Songs:
Understanding in a Car Crash (9/10)
Cross Out the Eyes (8/10)
Concealer (8/10)
Notes:
Extremely emotionally charged band. You might have to get used to them but once you do the songs are pretty sweet.
Notable Songs:
Cailin (9/10)
Seeing Red (9/10)
Holliday (8/10)
Notes:
They have a lot of variations in their songs, from laid-back to rocking out. Of course, they are pretty popular so I’ll bet you already know their best songs.
Notable Songs:
Buddy Holly (9/10)
My Name is Jonas (9/10)
Photograph (8/10)
Notes:
They really have all kinds of great songs and have been around for a while. Really mellow so don’t expect like punk when you download them. In the guide I put up some of the most popular, but my own favorites and must downloads are: The World Has Turned and Left Me Here, The Sweater Song, In the Garage, Island in the Sun, and Say It Ain’t So.
Notable Songs:
October Nights (10/10)
Sure Shot (8/10)
Cigarette (8/10)
Notes:
Wow lots of good songs, and October Nights is a must have for any punk fan. Other songs I would try: Starstruck and Rock Star Land. BTW, these guys are on the game Amped.
Notable Songs:
Now or Never (8/10)
Playmate of the Year (8/10)
Check (7/10)
Notes:
Fast style and traditional punk. Now or Never is a pump up song IMO so go and listen to it. Playmate of the year has humor as its main ally but it is a good song too.
