That’s what Atlanta Music Scene wants to know. It looks like Third Day is the winner among the commenters, with Sun Domingo a close second. Also nominated: two bands that aren’t actually from Atlanta, three cover bands, three Christian bands, and Bain Mattox.
Anything is better than AJC’s relentless anticipation and coverage of the Hannah Montana concert. Seriously, I have never seen anything like it – at least one hyper article a day (including news of her upcoming 3-D movie) in the week preceding the event and two photo galleries on AJC.com the morning after devoted to capturing the excitement of the occasion. Hannah Montana, if you don’t know already, is Billy Ray Cyrus’s spawn and lip-synchs songs sung by some anonymous girl and tween girls go batshit crazy for it.

The best Atlanta band ever was Anti-Heros.

I must’ve misunderstood and commented about who I thought would hit it big next. That band could very well be Dear Enemy. Not because they are great, quite the contrary. They really do sound terrible. Epically terrible, like a plague. But you can’t spell ‘success’ without ‘suck’ and Dear Enemy sure does suck. They have that magical combination of sucking really bad and playing out a lot. The sum of that equation always equals inexcusably stupid fans and chart topping shitty music.
