MDAM have so much potential, End Measured Mile was great.

I hope they don't blow it. I would hate to see this band embrace the Four Year Strong/A Day to Remember/whatever awful-ass bullshit is consuming bands these days. Here's to hoping, instead, for a killer record.

ACA's douchey elitism shows...as in every post.
Either way, really enjoyed the acoustic EP. curious to see where they go with this. Still don't see how they fit in with the rest of the Wave, as the styles aren't even close.

Pretty much.
They're pop punk with hardcore influences.

They're the least "wavey" band in the Wave. They don't fit in with the rest at all.

Band is good. Just don't get how they fit.

Nah, I don't care.
