Has anyone ever heard of this band? They're a punk band with a lot of influence from pog. Really good stuff, and i Hate punk.

Really worth checking out.

Good hamonies within the instrumentation, cool riffs and lines, each player adds a lot to each song, good writing skills...

cool album

Hmm... I wouldn't consider them to be prog at all. They're very similar to At the Drive-in, except not as good.

^ not very similar to At the Drive-In IMO. But not prog, of course.

nicely put.  Indeed they are that kind of mainstream emo'punk stuff. But they are much more talented songwriters. Its damn good stuff
