Taking Back Sunday is a band with emo and pop-punk influences from Amityville, Long Island, New York. The current members are Adam Lazzara, Fred Mascherino, Eddie Reyes, Mark O'Connell and Matt Rubano.
Band members Adam Lazzara – lead vocals, additional guitar, harmonica Fred Mascherino – lead guitar, lead/backing vocals Eddie Reyes – rhythm guitar Mark O'Connell – drums Matt Rubano – bass Their first release came in 2001 with the Taking Back Sunday EP, and featured Antonio Longo on vocals, John Nolan on guitar and backing vocals, Eddie Reyes on guitar (the original founder of the band), Jesse Lacey on bass, and Mark O'Connell on drums. This CD was distributed at Taking Back Sunday shows, but never achieved any noteworthy success. Following a change of lineup (Antonio Longo to Adam Lazzara and Jesse Lacey to Shaun Cooper) they released the follow-up album Tell All Your Friends, which was produced by Sal Villaneuva. The album gave the band a first taste of success in the scene. After the release, they played with bands such as Brand New and The Used, as well as performing as a short stint on the 2003 Vans Warped Tour. Another change in their lineup occurred when singer/guitarist John Nolan and bassist Shaun Cooper left the band and formed their own band, Straylight Run. Shaun Cooper and John Nolan discussed their decision to leave the band in April 2003; “ Shaun Cooper asked his friend John Nolan, "Do you want to commit career suicide?" "Yes, as a matter of fact, I do," John replied.[3] April 2003 ” Because of these departures, the band's future was in doubt for some time. However, with the additions of guitarist/vocalist Fred Mascherino and bassist Matt Rubano, the band became stabilized. The year 2004 proved to be successful for Taking Back Sunday, with the band opening for Blink-182 and being one of the main headliners for the Vans Warped Tour. In addition, their second album, titled Where You Want To Be, was released on July 27, 2004 on Victory Records. This album, although having a slightly different sound than Tell All Your Friends and only marginly different than their first album, managed to do well commercially. Propelled by the single "A Decade Under the Influence", Where You Want to Be went on to debut at the #3 spot on the Billboard 200 albums chart, with sales of around 163,000 copies. Taking Back Sunday received even more mainstream exposure by appearing (on the day of Where You Want to Be's release) on the late night talk shows Jimmy Kimmel Live and Loveline, and by contributing the song "This Photograph Is Proof (I Know You Know)" to the soundtrack for Spider-Man 2. They also contributed the song "Your Own Disaster" to the Elektra soundtrack, and the original version of "Error: Operator" to both the Fantastic Four soundtrack and tie-in video game, where it served as Mr. Fantastic's theme. An instrumental version is also used as background music within the game. On April 25, 2006, Taking Back Sunday released their third album, entitled Louder Now, on Warner Bros. Records. It nearly mirrors the first two albums in style and message, yet delivers with a more polished sound. Louder Now was leaked onto the Internet in its entirety on April 19, 2006. Taking Back Sunday received mainstream exposure by appearing on the late night talk shows The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and Late Night With Conan O'Brien. |

Yeah, I like TBS' early stuff (Tell All Your Friends was awesome), but I wouldn't say they were hardcore. Post-hardcore maybe. Hardcore gives the inflection of something heavy, hard and fast. I wouldn't say TBS are any of the three.
But I still love TAYF and WYWTB. |

I was listening to them last night. I wouldn't really class them as hardcore tbh...but still, they are an amazing band. Cannot say they are one of my favourites, but still a good band all the same.
I think Where You Want to Be is their best album. Not particularly fond of Louder Now. |

Taking Back Sunday is absolutely AMAZING.
I love them. So very much. I like Notes From The Past A collection of their older songs, I listen to it nonstop. my favorite song would have to be Timerwolves At New Jersey, Slowdance On The Inside, orrrrr Number Five With A Bullet. Scratch that. All of them. |
