nonexistent pretentious indie/punk/emo bands

This is a great game to play during long car trips! No matter how nonsensical, pretentious, or stupid, if the band is in the indie, punk, or emo genre, people will listen to it. Good clean fun for the whole family! Just pick a genre and dive right in.
I shall start. Ashes of August's Fire. Fangirl/fanboy acronym: AAF. Emocore band from the Pacific Northwest. Cites influences as being "anywhere from Sunny Day Real Estate to the Clash." Lead singer causes the breakup in 2002 over a "creative dispute." Biggest hit? "You Know Me", a catchy festival of power chords enjoyed by all and scorned by the "real fans."

The Sky Corvair. Emo supergroup from the midwest that - what? They're real? Damn, and here I was wishing that I'd made them up.

Dude I was talking to the lead singer from xSkullGobletx last night on AIM, and he said that Death Before Dying on Twisted River that's Bleeding is playing tonight. And Autumn Falls of a Godless Winter Death Thats Burning With a Hornless Unicorn is playing. I can't wait. They really bring the mosh.

The Fucking Turnstile Jumpers. Anarcho-punk from Des Moines, Iowa; but the bassist was born in the UK, so that makes them cool. Released a 20-song debut album that was 15 minutes in length in 1992 and were never heard from again. The album featured such touching numbers as "The Government Made Me Kill My Baby" and "I Raped Your President." Popularity resurfaced in 1997 when the lead guitarist was found in a ditch outside of Minneapolis dying in a pile of his own shit.

Everyone but Adolph. three high school boys trying to impress their prom dates with their beck haircuts and recycled poetry from junior high. recorded their first 7 inch in someone's storage unit rental-turned-recording studio at $15/hour. picked the cover art out of an old calculus book from the 70s. broke up when the bassist and the drummer realized the lead singer/guitarist actually wore black socks with his shorts and white sneakers.
