Attack Attack?: Confused?

Ok so everyone has their obsession with a band or musical artist and it seems mine for this month was Attack Attack! which can often be confused twice..

Attack Attack! (note that there is one "!" there) is the band I love, the post-hardcore/electronica band from America.
Attack! Attack! (two "!") is from the UK, they are a hardcore punk band, not as good as our AA!
and finally...
Attack Attack (no !'s there) i heard is some DJ but never heard of him so who cares.

But anyway, yea so I listened to their whole debut album like 5 times yesterday. Someday Came Suddenly is a very good album and you need to check these guys out. They are on tour right now and will pop up on the 1st day of Bamboozle and the whole Warped Tour. I even read up on these guys and found out they dont have their original screamer anymore. GOD DAMMIT! His screams to me are great, unique in a way. So I looked up on it, he was kicked for mistreating his band mates. They have a new screamer though, so don't worry but this made me check on where Austin (the original frontman) went. He has a new band called Of Mice & Men, assuming its named after the book/movie. It sounds like Attack Attack, but the singing is different and the guitars are as well.

Of Mice & Men is a good start to Austin's career after Attack Attack! You should check out their songs on YouTube which are hard to find cuz if you type their band name in you of course are gonna get movie clips of the movie with the same name as their band name. So here is a song you wont find on their MySpace. Check their other song on their MySpace just click HERE to listen to it, and dont be confused its not a Lady GaGa cover, it just samples its in the 1st 5 seconds haha..



To me, they are a good band (only 2 members in the band that are confirmed though! the drumming is by the Miss May I drummer) but Attack Attack! is better in my opinion. Listen to Attack Attack's whole album on YouTube BUT def buy it if you are feeling it, support these guys! The People's Elbow, Shred White And Blue, and Catfish Soup are def worth the listen!
