Septemberistheonlytimeidontthinkofyou

He Said She's Dead

I Set My Friends On Fire

For more Midwest emo-ish

Jawbreaker

The Get Up Kids

And Brand New..

Or

Harbor Skyline >_<

imagine dragons

maroon 5

the white stripes

These guys play quirky post-punk (pretty far from the styles you mentioned), but they definitely deserve more love:

three days grace and/or motionless in white?

I personally really enjoy Job For A Cowboy, Lower Definition, Yesterdays Rising, Rev3rent, Mauled, Watch out! Theres ghosts, Chomp Chomp Attack, and Underoath!

Dr. Acula and Killwhitneydead are sum pretty cool bands

heres some metalcore bands i recommend: day of suffering, piecemeal, deathbed, xreprisalx, abnegation, bloodlet, plague thy child, far from forgiven, xdestroy babylonx, sentence, state craft, l'esprit du clan, xclearx, dead blue sky, strain, and deformity (more proto-deathcore than metalcore)

Gotta shoutout one of our local bands A Modest Proposal here, I love their music sm
