Welcome to ModRoc. Today, September 1st 2006, is our official first day open. Why don’t we get started by how this works! Almost daily, I will post about new and upcoming bands making it big. Above, you can see pictures, clicking on the pictures makes them larger. When enlarged, click on the left or right sides of the picture to move through the group of pics. Also, when possible, we’ll post sound clips of songs which you can listen to by clicking the play button, like above. Any suggestions would be greatly appriciated, and thanks so much for stopping by!

For the first official post to ModRoc, I decided to write about a local band from my hometown. This band, although local, is known all over the Philadelphia region by teens as being an amazing band, both live and recorded. Capitol Risk mold together sounds from Mae, Jimmy Eat World, and obviously many other rock and non-rock influences. In my book, this band is a true winner and it should not be long before they have a recording contract.
Had I not lived in this area and never met a few of the members of the band, I probably would’ve never guessed they were just teenagers. Their crisp lyrics, sweet harmony, tight guitar and perfectly fitting drums grasp the listener into the music.
This band had a big break lately, being able to play at one of the tour stops of the Warped Tour here in PA. Honestly, I’d give this band 2 years till they hit it big. All the guys in this band have a big future ahead of them.
