Coming from Sonny's neck of the woods....this band called Cartel from Atlanta. Very catchy pop-punk. Saw them in concert a month ago, real cool guys to drink at the bar with as well. Their new album, "Chroma", came out two or three weeks ago. You can listen to most of it here, "The Minstrel's Prayer" is an awesome song Also suggest "Luckie St." and "IF I Fail":

Also been listening to another new band, Panic! at the Disco. They are on Pete from Fall Out Boy's new label, Decaydance Records. They sort of sound like FOB during "Dance, Dance" but add a keyboard to it. Songs I suggest, "I Write Sins Not Tragedies", "The Only Difference Between Martyrdom And Suicide Is Press Coverage", and "Time To Dance". Here are some of their songs:

That's about it for new stuff.

I must say that you were dead on correct about Fall Out Boy Matty B. Fall Out Boy is currently being played on a few Atlanta mainstream stations (Primary Alternative station and the main Top 40 station).

Sona Family out of Britain. Hindi Hip Hop!

Alkaline Trio's Crimson album, just about every song on there is awesome

and a mix of Slightly Stoopid a dope reggae band out of cali

The Panic! at the Disco cd is the best album of the year in my eyes... or ears I should say. The cd is so unbelievably catchy that you will be walking down the street and the words will just enter your brain. The cartel cd is pretty good too. there was just something about their sound on this cd I didn't love. Coheed and Cambria also blew me away with their new cd. They are coming to IUP in a few weeks for a show and I cant wait to see them.

I can never can get into Coheed.

As for P!ATD, "When I say shotgun, you say wedding. Shotgun! Wedding! Shotgun! Wedding!"

I love the new Coheed and Cambria cd as well as Motion City Soundtrack I am listening to them right now in my truck. I am also listening to Coldplay on my ipod; and a local Utah band called Sherwood, they really are good i suggest if you can listening to them.
