This is them two years ago debuting their second album which is also a concept album, making them possibly the youngest band in history to do so. They were 13, 16, and 18 at the time. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TeIbG8nkOiU Well I swear the whole performance used to be on their channel as one video but now it is apparently broken up by individual songs. Still, there are other concerts they have up as well as all the fan uploads. They become more popular by the year and are essentially the future of rock and its only a matter of time before they become THE band to listen to of the genre. --- Now Playing: "The Hunt for the Two Missing Nintendo 64 Games" An expansion came out, but I'm still a third of the way through! <cite>Gamerguymass posted [p:939627157] in Remember w...
