Because I Said So





and because I LUUUURVE THEM!!!!






My favorite band from Towson, Maryland. These guys are really nice and SUPER Talented!


"After all its the grass that looks so greeeen" These guys have a much more mature sound than the pop punk we're being force- fed (of course with a spoonful of sugar). The lyrics from their post Drive Thru Records days are eloquent and mirror their maturation, the hooks are catchy yet conscientious; hopefully they'll take whiny emo punk along for the ride. Guitarist/Singer Alex Sophocles has assured me, however, most of the "brilliant" writing was done in their "transition and [I] haven't seen anything yet." Well Alex... I don't know how much longer I can hold out


"The sun only shines, da da dada da da.... " Its more of a.... "beach pop" sound as my good friend and fellow batch (Mr. Reid the movie star) put it. HE says they're catchy and also finds them similar to Rooney (the band from Cali the birth place of "beach pop" i assume) I kinda think they are Click Five'ish but better. Anywho, just listen and tell me or them what you think.


Here's the Myspace <=== I love Aloha Bacon!

And their Wikipedia


I've seen them and they are awesome! Energetic, committed, and fun!Alex and Ryan are the guitarists and vocalists, live, they blend really well together.
Ryan is tall and blonde and a complete hottie, the high school girls LOVE him.
Alex, is shorter, has dark hair and is more of the frontman cuz he's the one we talk to mostly.
Alex has great swagger when he performs and my friend thinks he's got good guitar skills (even better than YL's guitarist . )

Tom is the timekeeper and his hair is definitely his trademark. You can't help but spot him during the performance because his hair is flopping around.

Matt is the bassist and he is the oldest in the group but he is so cool and very mellow.
In the middle of their set they did an instrumental intro into Junga Junga and it was awesome! They also performed a new song that isn't on their myspace.

I felt like such a schoolgirl when they played Aloha Bacon, it's my favorite, and Eric and I sing along to it about 3 times a day. I was definitely rockin' out during their set with one of their mom's!


If you're in the area definitely go to their shows! If you can't make it stalk them, I don't think they'd mind as long as you've got Sushi and/or Pizza.


Bottom line... I LOVEAdelphi!!!


Ciao Batches
