Best current band you've actually seen live.

FUCKED UP. Incredible punk from Toronto, Canada. I've seen them play three times: twice in Albany, NY and once in Montreal. Montreal they were playing out of shitty combo amps to a capacity crowd of wasted crust punks. They stole the show. Albany (first time) they played on borrowed equipment after showing up late cause of car / border crossing troubles. They stole the show. Albany (second time) they opened with a butchered cover of "Is this My World" by JERRY'S KIDS,
and proceded to play a quarter of the set with a guitar shorting out. AGAIN, they stole the show. Unstoppable...

[JORDAN ALERT!]

Wednesday Night Heroes. definitely the best straight up punk rock band right now.

[JORDAN ALERT!]

oh yeah also Bones Brigade... they tie with WNH for me.

MENTAL, boston straight edge, no bullshit, just amazing get low rock n roll influenced hardcore punk. I saw em' in a tiny ass basement in chicago, packed with over 100+ kids (maybe one of the best shows ever, period). Plus our band got to open for them last month, truely amazing.
