Gameface are a four-piece emo/punk band from Orange County, California that formed in 1991 and disbanded in 2003, before reuniting in 2013 and remaining active to this day. They tend to fly under the radar a bit, especially for a band that's been at it as long as they have. Which is unfortunate, because they've been consistently solid over the years. They play an energetic, melodic, and refined blend of thick rhythm guitars, shimmering leads, and catchy-as-anything vocals. If you're a fan of bands such as Samiam, Hey Mercedes, Sense Field, Saves The Day, or Knapsack, this may be up your alley. There's a lot of material here to sift through, so if you're new to them, start with Every Last Time since that's generally considered their strongest album, then I'd suggest Three To Get Ready after that. Enjoy.

They didn't fly under the radar in the 90s. They were one of the bigger pop-punk bands then, being on Dr. Strange and Revelation, etc
