| recommend some alternative bands! ok, so i've been trying to recommend some christian bands to one of my friends who likes loud metalcore stuff. she listens to The Used, Lost Prophets, My Chemical Romance, ect., and she's been recommending them to me, so i thought i'd recommend some of my stuff to her. she doesn't like what i've loaned her though. she does like Attack Attack and RED, but there's got to be some other bands she might like. got any ideas?

| I second a lot of Skeeter's picks.
This may or may not be the kind of thing she listens to, but introduce her to Anberlin.

| She should definitely give Norma Jean and The Chariot a listen. If she's not really into the noisy stuff, though, The Devil Wears Prada and Underoath are good. Zao may be a good choice, too, but they're kind of different. |

Silverstein | Copeland for sure...
Further Seems Forever also (RIP)
Terminal, haha! They are from my hometown (sort of...town over really). I played tons of shows with those guys. They used to be called "Letter 12". I think we both opened together for Philmore once. Too bad they aren't a band anymore
