So Brian recruited two guitar players, a drummer (ex-drummer of A Day To Remember) and a bass player."

"Formed in Baltimore, MD, United States in 1998, SR-71 has produced three major-label albums, two of which (Now You See Inside and Tomorrow) have been released in the States, and a third (Here We Go Again) released only in Japan.
After becoming instant Top 40 material with their driving hit PlayRight Now and the lesser-known PlayPolitically Correct on their first album, the band slowly shied from the limelight for its second album, part of the reason the third album was not released in the US.
In recent days lead singer Mitch Allan has pursued a solo career, reworking some SR-71 songs and creating some of his own. SR-71
is on hiatus, as of 2007."

10. And Then There Were None - The Hospital
"Formed in 2003, And Then There Were None started as five best friends who shared a love for writing and recording music. With a relentless touring work ethic, and a DIY attitude, And Then There Were None built a solid fan base, and began garnering attention from the press and labels alike. It’s six years later, and ATTWN is still here, still making waves.
This past year was a busy one for ATTWN. After signing to Tooth & Nail, a line up change, the addition of new members, and a new sound, And Then There Were None is back and better than ever. Once known for boasting metal riffs and killer breakdowns, the band has been reinvented, mixing euro-dance beats with a punk-rock backbone. Frontman Matt Rhoades comments, “Eventually I ran out of ideas for writing metal music, and began to write what came more naturally. To me, dance music is positive, and still incredibly emotionally based. There are no rules or norms and this allowed me more creative freedom in the writing process. I finally feel as though ATTWN has found its own unique sound.”
What separates ATTWN from it’s peers is the passion and moral behind the music. Unafraid to bring ethics and a message back onto the scene, And Then There Were None has made it a mission to be heard."
