Amityville, New York, USA (1999 – present)

Taking Back Sunday originally formed in Amityville, New York, USA in 1999. The band has gone through several lineup changes. 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 Stevie D on drums. This CD was distributed at Taking Back Sunday shows, but never achieved any noteworthy success. Following a change of lineup (Jesse Lacey to Adam Lazzara and Mark O’Connell replaced Stevie D) 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 (formed by former bassist Jesse Lacey) 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 what is now Straylight Run. 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 a successful year 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.

TBS will always be my favourite, but New Again really lost that TBS touch what TAYF and WYWTB had. Maybe they should switch back to Victory Records...

i was really attracted to a couple of songs at first that were leaked from new again, and i really anticipated the album. i bought the album when it came out and it didn't disappoint, but i definitely liked it better after several listens.

i think that "verything must go" is the only song that keeps it real from the album, its the only one that really sounds like TBS

I'm wondering if the fact that it was in Transformers 2 has anything to do with it.

Capital M-E as the top song, really? I didn't think it was too great, to be honest.
