3OH!3 - They don't have "work". They have people do the beats for them, they just dance around on-stage like geeks. Anti-Flag - Probably the only good band that you just 'reviewed'. Bad Religion - Strange music, pretty boring too. Bayside - Your average post-hardcore/metalcore band, nothing special here. Bouncing Souls - They're alright. Breathe Carolina - Suck ass. Little teen kids that must've thought, "hmm screamopop sounds cool lets do it!" and forgot to make music along the way. Chiodos - NOT amazing. Often whiny vocals, sound like **** on-stage. Escape the Fate - Another ****ty band that thought that it should just f*ck it and go mainstream. Craigafer was MUCH better in blessthefall. Flogging Molly - Great band, a big overlooked though. Gallows - Metalcore, more on the heavy metal side though. Pretty decent. I Set My Friends on Fire - Overrated. They have a 30-minute album with half of it being, well, filler. 12 songs, around five of them filler, and they aren't "geniuses" just because they decided to scream Crank That instead of rap it. Jeffree Star - The king of... the queen of... whatever the f*ck this monstrocity is, of 'scene'. 'nuff said, he'll... she'll... whatever this, thing, is, will probably scare you away before preforming even one song. Meg & Dia - Happy indie music. Fun to listen to. NOFX - They're alright. Saosin - They suck balls now. Seriously, plus the lead singer's a douchebag. Senses Fail - One of the better bands at this year's Warped Tour. Silverstein - WHY? Underoath - Amazing metalcore band, but has grown bland in the past year-or-so with all the copy-cats in the industry. New album was a letdown. Valencia - Average post-hardcore band, probably tons of other bands exactly like this already at this year's Warped Tour. |

I agree for the most part, especially on Escape The Fate. They're like a scene kid version of Motley Crue.
Disagree on Anti Flag, though. They're absolutely awful, and I hate how everyone thinks that they're punk rock Gods. Their music is extremely weak, polished and poppy.

Yeah see last year the put 3OH!3 and The Academy Is... on the main stages, while Penywise, Set Your Goals, Bouncing Souls, and The ****ies were on the little stage by the halfpipe. Ten years ago it would've been about the opposite.

Not that many people care, just saying. What were you asking about Silverstein? |

And you think Escape The Fate is like Motley Crue? I couldn't make that connection if I tried. =P |

And trust me, I had seen quite a lot of performances, I had sat down for literally five minutes (I counted). |
