If the Blood Brothers are scene then I guess At The Drive-In is too. Everytime I Die could be argued for because of the bands they associate with and a few elements in some of their songs do reek of hottopiccore, but musically they're as hardcore punk as anything. I've heard The Bled's first EP and it's in no way comparable to those other metalcore bands because it doesn't use the whiny choruses and it actually sounds like metalcore is supposed to. I don't know what they sound like now though.

Also, have you heard He Is Legend's last album?

They're a scene band because the scenesters around here worship them. Its a sad truth.

I like to dance to 3oh!3 even though I can't stand them. Brokencyde is **** as are many bands on here.

Yeah but if you look at them

they don't look like a scene band at all

they don't really sound like a scene band either

My first post here. Don't kill me :-/

Anywayyy.. I went to warped last year and had a pretty good time. It was, however, only my second time attending. I saw some great bands, listened to some I hadn't really been into, and am attending warped tour this year. Now, I don't know if my taste is "broadened" enough for the posters on this site, but I'm not too worried. Here are my overview on some of the bands there:

A Day To Remember - will be my second time seeing them. they're sick. love their new album as well.
A Skylit Drive
Aiden - have loved these guys since "our gang's dark oath" their new album is alright.
Anti-Flag - my brother had me listen to these guys years ago. they're alright.. a little different than what i'm used to. i know many of you love them though.
Attack Attack
Chiodos
Emmure - saw these guys a few weeks back. was an awesome show.
Escape The Fate - a good band.. but i miss the older ETF.
Flogging Molly
Forever The Sickest Kids
He Is Legend
I Set My Friends On Fire - love these two guys.
Ivoryline - saw ivoryline at a show last year.. started listening to them and really enjoy em.
NeverShoutNever
NOFX
Saosin
Scary Kids Scaring Kids - have also seen SKSK live.. wasn't the best show though, but I still like their music.
Senses Fail - obviously.
Silverstein - an okay new album - will definitely be watching these gentlemen.
The Ataris
The Devil Wears Prada - saw them a couple weeks back with ADTR.. just got their new CD as well.
Thrice
To Speak Of Wolves
Underoath - their last CD was kind of ehhh, but still a great band.

I really wish Alesana could be there this year, but they're gonna be out of the country.. oh well. Sure, I'm a little younger so some of the classic bands, such as Bad Religion, Anti-Flag, NOFX, Flogging Molly, are just hard to get into. But, I'm gonna give it a shot.
