Mine has got to be Thee Oh Sees. Something about the crowd just going insane for an hour and a half just gets me.

    This site is the best because people post about my favorite ska/prog/metal band from middle school

      Lol nice. Mandala still holds up incredibly. Not sure I can say the same for anything earlier, though I definitely did use to love it all.

      edit: And the Battle Begun is still good too. They got exponentially better with each album until Gemini, which was a step down but to be fair Mandala is a masterpiece of an album and they can't be blamed for not being able to top it.

        I listen to their ska stuff just for a laugh and nostalgia nowadays, but I still listen to everything from Resignation onwards pretty regularly. And the Battle Begun is my favorite and Gemini was definitely a little underwhelming in spots, but I think they're gonna have some new stuff coming out relatively soon which should be good.

          Haha of course, whomst among us doesn't enjoy hearing "ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?!" over some horns and upstrokes every now and then. Man I used to have a sweet shirt with the ATBB cover art but I lost it at a hotel. What's this about new stuff?! I thought they were all busy taking care of kids now while Matt makes woahy cali surfer guy music.
