I didn't realize I'm five years older than Frownland. Weird.

I was born in 1989. My first album was a cassette of The Wallflowers - Bringing Down the Horse. I still like the album. From there my musical journey gets strange. I went through the backstreet boy/N'Sync thing for a few months before graduating to whatever was playing on TRL at the time. I'd watch that **** every single day when I got home from school. I knew all the hits and one hit wonders. It stayed mostly like that until I was about 13 where I started to get into more pop punk and emo type stuff. Bands that I listen too included...

New Found Glory
Coheed and Cambria
The Used
Taking Back Sunday
Midtown
All American Rejects
Alkaline Trio

Alkaline Trio was my sh*t when I was 15. I'd listen to From Here to Infirmary every day when I rode my bike to work for a whole summer. Then I started to get into emo/hardcore bands like...

As I Lay Dying
From First To Last
The Bled
Blood Brothers
Circa Survive
Fall of Troy

Then something magical happened. I blind bought a copy of The Mars Volta's Deloused in the Comatorium cause I liked the album cover. I listened to it in awe like 8 times in a row that night. The album opened my eyes to what music could sound like and make me feel.

After that it's just been a sh*tshow after another. I like where my taste is at now. Diverse. Deep. Superior.
