Los Activos-They call themselves the punkrock SVANGA. I don't know what that means and I can't read anything on their web site. It's all in Italian. They have a quote from Johnny Ramone on there, so that must count for something. Go check it out and let me know what the hell this is all about! AFI-East Bay Hard Core. (used to be)Great Danzig/Misfits-influenced band from California's famous East Bay. Agnostic Front-New York Hard Core legends. These guys were there at the start. If you don't know who they are, you're retarded and you really need to check out their site. ANTiSEEN-The long time veterans of southern scum punk. Founding fathers of the Confederacy Of Scum and friends of the late GG Allin. These guys are legendary. The Apers-Poppunk rock n roll from the Netherlands.

The Drama Queens-Drunken rock n roll from southern Virginia that is heavily influenced by the cheap beer they consume and the wrestling they watch on TV.

One of my favorites. Super catchy songs. Were on Sympathy, now on Panic Button which I guess is run by Lookout! now. Feable Weiner-Total Power Pop Punk Rock band from Murfreesboro, TN. Heavily influenced by Weezer, Get Up Kids, etc. Super catchy tunes with lyrics that will crack you consistantly up. The Fevers- One of the greatest mysteries of Rock N Roll now.
