Made up of Tyson (vocals, bass), Chad (guitar, backing vocals), Steve (guitar), DJ (guitar), Pouyan (keyboard), and Peter (drums), Scary Kids has begun to draw attention of people both nationally and internationally. Their combination of talented musicians, ear-splitting screams, and raw aggression is unmatched by anyone in the industry today.

68. The Living End
When their 1998 Self titled debut came out, no one in Australia could really tell you what the Living End's real sound was. Stray Cats gone punk? AC/DC meets Elvis? What they could tell you, was that almost each and every one of them loved the disc and it propelled this modernized rockabilly band to superstardom overnight. After almost continuous global touring, an avoidance of the sophomore jinx with their second Album "Roll On", right when these Aussies were about to go into studio Singer/Guitarist extraordinaire Chris Cheney got in a near fatal car accident. Long story short, their third album (and what they think is their best)was eventually recorded with a new drummer. If you enjoy any musical genre that's name ends in "billy" these guys are for you.

66. Reggie and the full effect
Much mystery surrounded Reggie And The Full Effect in 2000 when he broke onto the scene with the Vagrant-released Promotional Copy. Providing many laughs and a range of music from hardcore riffs to pumping dance tunes, it was hard to get into. In 2003, they released Under The Tray, another collection of fueled pop melodies and joke songs. The band saw guest appearances from Fluxuation, Common Denominator, Hungry Bear and Drunk Girl. But in 2005, the covers came off. James Dewees (Get Up Kids) came out and confirmed everything was by him. His 2005 record, Songs Not To Get Married To, was a much more serious look at his life and music, although there are still 1 or 2 "guest appearances". Nevertheless, Reggie has always been a hit with the pop-punk scene because his music is accessable and fun to listen to, yet sometimes shows a darker side to James.

62. The Undertones
Well, I dunno where to start with this awesome 70’s pop-punk band ? They formed in 1976, hailing from Derry, Northern Ireland. They released their first EP in September 1978, The Teenage Kicks EP. Britain’s top DJ at the time, John Peel was captivated by it and it got some airplay. They released their first album in 1979, and they were becoming really successful, and they even supported The Clash on their American tour.
They switched to EMI in 1981, and they showed a different side and it was a much more ambitious album
They got into the UK top 50 with some songs, but this was to start the beginning of the end for the band.
In 1983 they ent even more ambitious with The Sin Of Pride and featured 60’s soul and psychedelia, but it’s singles didn’t fare will and the album’s best performance in the charts was #46, they split in the summer of ’83. In 1999 they played two hometown gigs and recruited Paul McLoone. They have released lots of re-issues and a documentary since. Real legends.
