(Note- Day-92 does not have a picture of the entire band on Myspace, and I experienced technical difficulties when trying to upload pictures of the individual members onto this blog. Maybe it's because they're Canadian? Just kidding.)

If you only listen to ONE SONG by Day-92, you MUST listen to... Stop The Time
About Day-92/why they rock/ why you should check them out- One visit to Day-92's Myspace page tells you that these guys like to have a laugh. They present themselves as jokesters, in pictures and words, but you can tell they're serious (or at least somewhat serious) as musicians. The influence of Blink-182 is pretty evident- both in "Fucked Your Dad" and their more serious songs, like "Help Me". But one thing Day-92 has that Blink-182 doesn't (besides Canadian citizenship) is synthesizers, which make "Stop The Time" and "Get Down" a little more dance-y. Day-92 is upbeat and energetic, combining classic, Blink-182 and New Found Glory-style pop-punk with just a hint of the danciness that you heard in Show Me The Skyline. Their music is 100% fun, 3-chord (or similar) songs with lyrics that will stick in your head- and leave you wondering, a few hours later, how they got there.

Are you in a band, or do you know any awesome bands that you'd like to "nominate" to be in the 100 Bands Project? Comment here, or send me an email at mollylh@live.com, with the band name, myspace/website link, band location (city and state/country, or if you'd prefer, a region- "Southern California", "New England", etc.), genre(s), what bands you think you sound like, band photo and member names (L to R, and what instrument they play), and anything else you think I should know about the band (if these things aren't available on the myspace). I'm open to solo artists, too. If I like your band, and I think other people will too, I will include you in the 100 Bands Project. Note- to be included in the 100 Bands Project, the band MUST be unsigned, there MUST be at least 3 original songs available for listening on Myspace or the band website, the band MUST currently be active (no broken-up/on hiatus/inactive bands, please), and all band members MUST be extremely good-looking. Just kidding about the last one, although it's a plus. ;)
