20 bands I miss.
Many of these bands have broken up… many of them just sailed off to the sunset with no official annoucement, but I venture to guess they aren’t releasing new material any time soon. A few of them are still rocking and rolling as to the best of my knowledge — they just have fell off my radar.
Liar’s Academy, Staring Back , Over It, The Stereo, A Small Victory, Park, Gatsbys American Dream, The Jealous Sound, The June Spirit, Piebald, Onelinedrawing, Ultimate Fakebook, Schatzi, The Benjamins, Watashi Wa, The Working Title, Superdrag, Tokyo Rose, Junction 18, Acceptance.
