Pencey Prep!

Sorry if this is a duplicate.
Thanks to wikipedia for the info!

Info:
Pencey Prep was a band formed from the ex-members of local punk heroes Sector 12 (Riverside Riot Records) and Stick Figure Suicide (Umbilical/Reinforcement Records). The band consisted of: Frank Iero (Lead Vocals, Guitar), Shaun Simon (Keyboards), John "Hambone" McGuire (Bass, Vocals), Neil Sabatino (Guitar, Vocals), and Tim Hagevik (Drums). They were a rare mix of punk, emo, and indie rock. The band's line up included 2 guitars, keyboards, bass, drums, and vocals and has been compared to the band The Anniversary. Pencey Prep officially released Heartbreak In Stereo on Eyeball Records in fall 2001, and disbanded shortly after. Before bands like The Used and Thursday were mainstream successes, Pencey Prep was creating music that fused many styles of music together while keeping true to punk rock roots. Pencey Prep played shows with bands like Nada Surf, The Strokes, Thursday, New Found Glory, Brand New and many more.

Frank Iero is currently one of two guitarists and a backup vocalist/screamer for the band My Chemical Romance, while John "Hambone" McGuire and Neil Sabatino play in the band Fairmont.

Pencey Prep is also the name of the school that Holden Caulfield, protagonist of the novel The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger, is kicked out of near the beginning of the story.

lyk nooooe dey iz punk.



lol idk.

Honestly, I haven't stopped listening to them since like last night ^_^

looooove <3

I would say that I wish that they were still together... but then if they were, Frankie wouldn't be in MCR

tbh,
I do like them
but Frank can't sing gorgeously well.

but maybe that's part of their attraction.

When I first listened to them on their Myspace page, I found it kind of hard to believe that the person singing was actually Frankie... I couldn't picture him having a voice like that. I duno why... I just couldn't. It was almost like I needed some proof of it, and after I watched that one vid of them I was just kind of like, wow. haha

Frankie deffinitly has a good voice, I wish that he would do more vocals in MCR. I mean, I love his screaming and everything, but its a shame to put a voice like that to waste.

I like them!
