Although their Butch Vig-produced major label debut was released in 2007, Gainesville, Florida's Against Me! existed a full 10 years before that, growing from Tom Gabel's solo acoustic joint into a full-fledged, old-school punk band. That trajectory hints at the surprising variety of sounds that the band employs on its records--including acoustic guitars and the occasional horn--as it resists the confines of by-the-numbers punk. Relentless touring and a hearty DIY ethic, rather than label support, helped the band win over legions of fans, who are drawn to Gabel's fiery authenticity and fresh, melodic take on a potentially tired sound.
