NocturnalEpitaph 02.08.10	forgot Telescreen, oh well :(
BallsToTheWall 02.08.10	Needs a lot more Horseback.
TheSpirit 02.08.10	Classic Case is awesome and underrated
Illitoris 02.08.10	wow, besides 12, and I guess 19, nc sux.
SeaAnemone 02.08.10	thanks for remembering 12... they're too often forgotten.
TheSpirit 02.08.10	ugh 1
CarlosPangea 02.08.10	Superchunk, Hammer No More The Fingers, Valient Thorr, The Rosebuds
CarlosPangea 02.08.10	Annuals. What part of NC are you in? I'm in Asheville.
Illitoris 02.08.10	Yes. Superchunk, The Rosebuds must be added. And to think North Carolina was metalcore central.
Masochist 02.08.10	6 would be my #1, but I like that #3 ;-)
NocturnalEpitaph 02.08.10	Carlos: I don't live in NC anymore, but I grew up and went to college in Raleigh. I still keep up with NC music because its pretty much what I grew up on and spent a ton of time being involved in in HS and college heh. I definitely forgot Superchunk and Valient Thorr. Huge misses forgetting those. I have to be honest and say I'm not a huge Rosebuds fan personally though.
BenX02 02.09.10	Awesome. I'm from Greensboro NC.
youreyesarepretty 02.12.10	represent raliegh, damn right bout nc bein the metalcore central haha the scene here sucks now
TheNewWhack 02.12.10	Props for 23
Frederickog357 02.28.10	wtf no killwhitneydead, the demonstration, knives exchanging hands.... but yeah btbam all the way
quicksilver050 02.28.10	I go to school in the Asheville area and used to dig Secret Lives before they broke up. Thanks for the mentioning man, brings back some good memories of their shows. I'm curious what your thoughts were on the now broken-up My Hero is Me, who were also from NC.
NocturnalEpitaph 03.02.10	Yea as far as Knives Exchanging Hands and My Hero Is Me...If I was from the gboro or winston area originally, they would probably be on my list instead of Called To Arms. Since I went to college in Raleigh, I got to see CTA a ton which is why I included them on my list (big nostalgia factor there). But I probably enjoyed Knives Exchanging Hands just as much as CTA if not more. My Hero Is Me was ok. Personally I just never got into their style that much, but I enjoyed seeing them live now and then. In regards to KWD and The Demonstration: I am happy for those guys and lord knows I've seen KWD live probably 15 times over the years, but their sound and shtick with the movie quotes just got old to me. The Demonstration probably should have been on the list though in hindsight. I actually debated between them and Seneca because I think Zack is a great vocalist, but somehow I forgot to put either of them. Good catch.
Zipzop5565 03.02.10	Does Nile count
Zipzop5565 03.02.10	Guess not since they are from Sc, but i was close
NocturnalEpitaph 03.02.10	as you pointed out, Nile is from SC. Great band, but thats why they werent on the list :)
NocturnalEpitaph 03.02.10	Oh and PS, this list wasn't really in a specific order or "ranked" or anything. Obviously some of my favorites are right up top because I thought of them first, but I didnt put any real thought into the order.
LegendofPittman 03.02.10	No one is from Tennessee except Paramore and country music. WHY!?!?!?!?!?!
quicksilver050 03.03.10	Yes!!! Seneca!!! I totally forgot about those guys. I'll have to go look for their old cd now if I can find it.
NocturnalEpitaph 03.03.10	yea, i liked them when zack was still the vocalist. I can't even remember the name of that CD now though. :/
JamieCTA 03.18.10	HA nice. Just signed up for this site after lurking for awhile. Glad to see we made your list (probably would even recognize you from past shows). Pretty solid list overall too. Good job including a few bands most people overlook like Archer's of Loaf and White Octave.
Raleighdoug 08.24.10	Catharsis, Zegota, HeartsCarved, From Here On, End of All... ok, so I am about 5 months late in writing this this, but still-- if we're going back 15 years, lets not forget that NC metal was pretty active before metalcore took over completely.
