I only have one. War All The Time. I quite like it.

Brand New are amazing. One of my favourite bands ever. Can do no wrong. Get everything by them.
 
yeah, Brand New are ok. Deja Entendu is good and there's a few good tracks on the earlier one. Not heard anything else by them though

Even though I had owned their two previous (****inghardcorenoisecorey0!) albums for years, HL blew me away. How can riffs so immense be in music so danceable and funky?!

The best way to describe what I want to listen to is stuff like "This Jetset Life is Gonna Kill You" by MCR, "The Kill" by 30 Seconds to Mars, "The Quiet Things That No-one ever knows" by Brand New - that sort of thing. I'm sure some of you lot are closet emo fans so give me your best shot.

How has this thread made it through 4 pages without a Hundred Reasons recommendation? This is what popped into mind when listening to that Brand New track:

Not neccesarily their best tracks, or the most like what you're after, but it fits the bill I think. Best british band of recent years not called Biffy Clyro.

And someone did mention Finch, good call... After that Brand New track I'd be amazed if you don't like this:

And just for a giggle, try and find the old Symposium track Killing Position.
 
Full Collapse is the best Thursday album. Underoath and Alexisonfire get seconded

Defently would try Anberlin & City and Colour both good stuff :)

Moving mountains are also decent emo/indie kinda style.

Also Alexisonfire as been said, Evans Blue & i might get burnt for this but Enter Shikari.

Haha I've just had a listen, they probably shouldn't be in there, but I hadn't listened to them in ages, and it was 4am when I wrote that list, so they got chucked in :p
