Question: What band was formed earlier, Mercury Rev or Taking Back Sunday?

Since then, they had released two EPs, an acoustic EP, a split with Boston pop punk band Transit, a compilation and four full-length albums.  Taking influence from such pop punk acts as Blink-182, Saves the Day and Taking Back Sunday, Man Overboard played a brand of upbeat and poppy pop punk with the emotion of 90s emo acts such as The Promise Ring.  The band was signed to Rise Records.  They are well known for their motto within the pop punk scene to "Defend Pop Punk".  On January 28, 2016 they announced a hiatus on their official website. Mercury Rev is an American indie rock band formed in 1989 in Buffalo, New York.  Original personnel were David Baker (vocals), Jonathan Donahue (vocals, guitars), Sean Mackowiak, a.k.a. "Grasshopper" (guitars, clarinet), Suzanne Thorpe (flute), Dave Fridmann (bass) and Jimy Chambers (drums). Tell All Your Friends is the debut studio album by American rock band Taking Back Sunday.  The group had several lineup changes before settling on vocalist Adam Lazzara, guitarist and vocalist John Nolan, guitarist Eddie Reyes, bassist Shaun Cooper, and drummer Mark O'Connell.  Taking Back Sunday released a five-song demo in early 2001, after which, they toured for most of the year.  They rented a room in Lindenhurst, New York, where they wrote and demoed songs.  In December 2001, the band signed with Victory Records and began recording "Tell All Your Friends".  The album, produced by Sal Villanueva, was recorded at Big Blue Meenie Recording Studio in New Jersey. New Again is the fourth studio album by American rock band Taking Back Sunday.

"New Again" was recorded in October and November 2008 at several studios in New York and California with David Kahne and Matt Squire as producers.  Matthew Fazzi of Facing New York joined Taking Back Sunday in early 2008.  He was praised by vocalist Adam Lazzara and the group's manager for incorporating new instruments into the group's sound.  Guitarist Eddie Reyes called the album "one of the most aggressive records we've ever written".  Towards the end of 2008, the group revealed the album's title, went on a US tour, and made "Carpathia" available for streaming. Taking Back Sunday is the fifth studio album by American rock band Taking Back Sunday.  After returning home from touring the Soundwave festival in February and March 2010, guitarist Matthew Fazzi and bassist Matthew Rubano left the group.

Recording began in October with producer Eric Valentine at Barefoot Recording in Hollywood, California and finished in January 2011. Dreams of Water is the debut album of the California/New York rock group Happy Body Slow Brain, which was formed by ex-Taking Back Sunday guitarist Matthew Fazzi and touring guitarist Isaac Bolivar.
