My budget is gonna be around $150. And no I don't have any mics.

I don't really get why you need a good sound card though. Aren't sound cards just for the output? I mean I'd love to have one to hear the stuff in close detail, but $800 is way out of the question for me. I'm talkin a really simple set up here. But thanks much for the input. I'm gonna go research the equipment you suggested
The sound card is very important. It is what gets the sound into the computer.
It uses something called analogue to digital converters and the quality of these determines how good the audio will sound once recorded.

I know that ART makes a Tube MP that has converters built in.

You might want to look into those they are cheap and good.
I think you band should go together to get the sound card as you will all need it.
You can get cheaper than the ONYX it is pretty state of the art.
