3OH!3 - I heard some of their work, they're pretty sick.
Anti-Flag - They BELONG on Warped Tour. That's just how it is.
Bad Religion - I don't even know.
Bayside - Amazing band. I got stuck in their Mosh Pit at Bamboozle.
Bouncing Souls - I don't even remember how I got into this band... I don't even listen to them much anymore.
Breathe Carolina - They're okay. You know how I was talking about that kid obsessing over music? He ruined the band for me.
Chiodos - amazing. Leave it at that.
Escape the Fate - They've always been amazing to me.
Flogging Molly - Eh. They're alright.
Gallows - I like them a lot. Although the lyrics are really weird.
I Set My Friends on Fire - Have you heard their "Crank That Calvery Boy"? Genius.
Jeffree Star = Love.
Meg & Dia - I've met them so many times, it isn't even funny. amazing band. Amazing music.
NOFX - I personally dislike this band's lead singer. But they too belong at WT.
Saosin -Good band overall.
Senses Fail - I absolutely love this band.
Silverstein - Some of their music just brings me back into times I'll never forget. Amazing.
Underoath - Good band.
Valencia - I forgot I used to listen to them a lot. [=
That's not going to convince anyone. I think you made it worse. So, my turn.

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.

Alfred. They have bands that aren't on the set list that play next to theskate ramp, that's usually where you can find the best.

Anyway, yeah Escape The Fate are shit.

At least they still have some of their skateboarding roots.

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.

I wasn't trying to convince everyone. I was just giving my opinion. ^_^

Not that many people care, just saying.

What were you asking about Silverstein?

Anti-Flag isn't as poppy as most "punk" bands can get, you know?

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

The Academy Is... used to be quite amazing. I saw them live and it was the absolute best performance I had seen that day.

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

I actually like TAI's first two albums, their new one is sell-out city though.
