I'll admit, I do like some JFAC songs. Not necesarily because of their skill, which is obviously matched and in many cases exceded by other bands in their genre, but I just find their songs catchy. I agree that their scene appeal is obviously their only claim to fame, and that they write songs pretty much only to appeal to that particular group of people, but in some cases skill isn't everything. A band could be insanely skilled and make some of the most technically advanced music ever, but if they have no appeal, they wont go anywhere.

I'm not saying they're the greatest band ever...by far....and they probably don't deserve half the credit they get for their music, but they're catchy, and theyve got something there.
