*Together 1998-2006*
Texas - home of big trucks, savory barbeque, and the next big thing: Terminal. Terminal's five youthful members, ranging in age from 18 to 21, bring anything but a youthful sound to the table. Already garnering comparisons to everyone from Jimmy Eat World to Third Eye Blind and Recover, Terminal's style ranges from cathartic and soaring to fragile and delicate, while still maintaining a passionate intensity throughout. Yeah, it is that good...
Mansfield, TX, emo rockers Terminal were known as Letter Twelve before they signed with Seattle's Tooth & Nail in 2004. But the name change didn't dilute the quintet's earnest blend of emo-inflected, triumphant modern rock, a sound that also had a Christian influence. Terminal's lineup included vocalist Travis Bryant, guitarists James Erwin and Matt Lucas, drummer Ryan Conley, and bassist Lucas Starr. They made their Tooth & Nail debut with How the Lonely Keep in June 2005, and embarked on an extensive tour with fellow T&N act Anberlin.
