Another Pop-Rock Profile?

Okay quick extra post today! I've been checking out some bands that aren't as well-known as they should be and I think you should hear about them!

First, A Change of Pace is a def. sweetsauce band. WHY? Because of songs like "Weekend Warriors" that remind you of all of the crazy things that happened, or were supposed to happen, in high school. Reminiscing about high school or just the past with your friends when you were eighteen and nothing seemed to matter is a pretty prominent theme in indie pop-rock. So if you love Boys Like Girls, We the Kings, Cute is What We Aim For, Hey Monday, or any other pop-rock narratives=songs-bands, then check 'em out and "raise a glass together!"

Another cool under-the-raidar band is Better Luck Next Time. These guys are catchy!!! And, they're more upbeat than some of the other "we're pop-punk but we want to confuse you and make you think we're straight-up-rock" bands, and trust me, they're no nonsense. You want to dance? Then, by golly, dance! And hear about how yet another guy got his heart ripped out of his chest, again (see album cover of "Third Time's A Charm"_. Apparently girls are the enemy for these guys since "everything we ever had is over" and "she's full of lies." Still...they're a lot of fun. Enjoy...and while you're at it, blast the cd and create a moshpit with your 16-year-old neighbors and their friends; they'll think they're cool and you'll relive your 16 ;)

That's all for now!

As always comment...any other bands you think I should profile?
