Boys Like Girls
Biography
Unafraid to wear their heart on their collective sleeve, the Boston-based emo-pop outfit Boys Like Girls features singer/guitarist Martin Johnson, bassist Bryan Donahue, drummer John Keefe, and guitarist Paul DiGiovanni (the last two members being cousins). After Boys Like Girls posted several demo recordings online, the band's lively hooks and youthful enthusiasm had gathered them quite a following by 2005's end, while also catching the attention of industry players like booking agent Matt Galle (My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday), and producer Matt Squire (Panic at the Disco, Northstar), both of whom contacted the band about working together. Following a national PureVolume-sponsored tour with Hit the Lights and A Thorn for Every Heart, Boys Like Girls entered the studio with Squire to record their debut album. The resulting self-titled effort appeared in August 2006 on Red Ink. Although initial sales were slow, the album eventually went gold, and tracks like "Thunder" helped Boys Like Girls maintain a presence on the Billboard charts throughout 2008. Following the release of a DVD, Read Between the Lines, the band returned to the recording studio to commence working on a second album, which appeared in 2009 under the title Love Drunk. ~ Corey Apar, All Music Guide

That kind of makes you seem shallow and stupid.
But that's what this music was created for. |
||
This band should be publicly executed.
Here's my synopsis of the one video I've seen by this band. A bunch of rich kids steal money from their parents because the most rebellious thing they can think off is driving out of town to see the Boy Being Like Girls concert, send text messages, and make ga ga eyes at the other emosexuals they brought with them. Done. |
