#1 - This Century (AZ)

Highest Position: #1

Trend: Up
Sounds Like: Jamariquoi meets Maroon 5 meets funky bass guitar

Why are they on the list? The talent in this band is off the charts. And the fact that these young guys haven't hit their full potential, makes it scary.

This band is #1, not so much with what's going on now, but what is going to happen in the near future. Their new music is going to come out soon and they just picked up one of the hottest up-and-coming management companies. This is probably TDCs riskiest #1 pick, but they can end up being the biggest. This should be fun to watch.

Why are they on the list? Songwriting excellence.

Gillmor has theme song on a FOX sitcom and is a finalist in the American Idol songwriting competition. Publishing companies should be drooling. Labels should be drooling. America will be drooling. This band is also a big supporter of Music Saves Lives.

Why are they on the list? I heard the song Resolve To Fight and my decision was made.

This band could easily go straight to a major or get an upstream (or downstream) deal and start on an indie. There is no doubt that label's are interested. With this kind of material, this band could really get the deal they want. It's probably not about what label's are interested in them but what labels are THEY interested in. I look forward to getting to know this band better. This is the highest debut on this new list.

Why are they on the list? Fans love them and they are always busy writing, touring or promoting.

I've seen this band hustle to two shows, an hour apart to play. I've seen them with great fan-band interaction and they always have smiles on their faces. Them being unsigned is more about them being patient rather than label's not wanting them. Believe me, they are wanted.

Why are they on the list? Their music is timeless.

I said earlier that music is cyclical. The only thing holding this band back is the fact that they might be making music now that we will listen to in a few years. They might be ahead of the trend. Labels don't like to predict trends, they follow. But I have no doubt a label will pick them up because their songs will stick in your head for weeks. Oh, and they are a very fan-friendly and a hardworking band.

A lot of the new music today doesn't capture emotion. Brightwood does and does it well. I listened to this band for about a year on the road, never realizing they were unsigned. Their new album comes out in July and I cannot wait. I have a lot of high hopes for this band.

Why are they on the list? Their music is great and they sound like their recordings when they perform live. Not many bands can do that.

The only thing holding these guys back is their tour history but they have been actively getting it in gear. Everyone has their eye on them and more are noticing. This band is a prime candidate for a future #1 spot, if they don't get signed before that.

This band continues to show progress with their music, tours and fanbase. That is the reason they keep rising up the list. They will keep doing their thing as long as the fans keep coming to shows. Afterall, the labels will follow the fans.

This is another hot product from the Chicago music scene and this band is primed to take it over. With a former member of The Acadamy Is in the band, this band knows the business and has the connections. Look for them to build from the ground up and wait for the right deal. Patience is a virtue.

TDC has a history of putting brand new bands in the Top Ten. We did it with Forever The Sickest Kids (Jan. '07), The Maine (Jan. '07) and Brave Citizens (Jan. '08).

Why are they on the list? If we don't even think about their music, for a moment, these guys are the most honest, down-to-earth and genuine guys you'll ever meet. Oh, and their music is pretty good too.

This band could've crawled in a hole and been forgotten after their former label almost botched their careers. Instead, they retained all their legal rights, hit the road and are about to release their best songs yet. This band has been winning over fans for years. They won me over. Are you next?

This is the 3rd highest debut on this new list. I'm hearing from several little birdies that this band is sought after in most areas of the industry.

I've seen this band on three stages on last year's Warped Tour, including SmartPunk. I've seen them hussle every day and having fun doing it. There is a reason why they are at their highest position on the list ever.

This band recorded their new music with Beau of Saosin. No, they don't sound like Saosin but the production is excellent. They only have one new song up but I've heard the album. This band will sell albums to the Taste Of Chaos crowd. Watch them grow fast. Oh, and they have toured Japan already.

Before we start the new Top Unsigned list, TDC wants to bring you 5 New Bands with less than 30,000 plays. And they are:

1. A Moment Below (CA) - This band has Equal Vision all over it. This band likes to keep you guessing as they have no pictures and a thought-provoking bio. TDC will be following this band closely.

2. OhMie (CA) - If this former lead singer of Everdae can write songs like Medicine, this guy can have a great synth-pop career.

3. Sun From Shadow (CA) - This will be a future Top Unsigned band. They are young with a ton of potential.

4. Sealife (IL) - I know almost nothing about this band but I like the songs.

5. Kinch (AZ) - This band is for all the Pitchfork readers. These guys are hardworking with tons of potential.
