Like Paradox, just with a better band. Simple.

I've eulogised time and again about them, and still I must do so some more.
Simply the best non-Pumpkins band I know. The odd thing is, I wouldn't normally like the stuff if I heard it once, for example songs like 'Travel By Telephone'.

Well, their album 'United By Fate' is a must buy if you like rock. They probably have some 'post-hardcore' label or some such meaningless (and completely wrong - hardcore?!!) tag, but they are just great musicians in a great band.

Some of you might have heard 'Used for Glue'. Well, tis not as good as others on the album. 'Good Things' and 'Everything Has Its Point Today' are just blinding pieces of brilliance.

So, go and listen to some, er, somewhere....you might just love them. Or of course, you will rad this and go 'meh' and move on.

Hmmm, searching the net and there's no new news.......worrying.....

If they've gone as well, there's no justice in the music world....

I've loved Rival Schools for a long, long time.

I was to see them live also a long, long time ago but that didn't happen.

Although 'Hooligans For Life' is the Instrumental track on the United by Fate album take a listen to 'Grunge Model'. I love that instrumental.

meh... ;-)

Got their albybum pretty much when it came out. Tis good. Listened to it yesterday. It has a good summery vibe to it I think, in that most of it feels uplifting. Good variety of tracks on there too, which is always nice. Yes. So check them out as Mr. Cyclone has said.
