AFI, Brand New, Get Up Kids, Rufio, Death Cab for Cutie, Alkaline Treo, Saves the Day, Fugazi, Something Corporate, Further Seems Forever, Thursday, The Starting Line, Pedro the Lion, Coheed & Cambria, New Found Glory (kind of), Jimmy Eat World (kind of), etc...


I can list more but they're a tad more obscure.

I like quite a few of those bands. Just because people think its whiny doesn't mean it isn't good music. It's got a lot more too it than a lot of other crap out there.
