Now playing: Divided By Friday

The first time I turned on Divided By Friday's Prove It EP, I had to do a quick search to see if Patrick Stump or Pete Wentz had got bored of their grown-up lives and gone back to their emo pasttimes. I know you're looking at that picture above going 'you are loco, I say', but just take a listen to this:



Yeah, do you concur now?

But if you listen further to this young bunch of lad's, they become more Mayday Parade than Fall Out Boy. Their EP is packed with cascading, catchy power pop hooks and they've got the classic emo-rock double male vocals going on. They make the days I wish I was 17 again feel good again.

I also thought it was interesting to note that these guys, as one might presume, aren't out of the hubs of the East/West coasts of America, but rather Laurinburg, North Carolina. Really, people in NC are angsty and musical? Who'd've thunk it?
