Formed in Stillwater, Oklahoma, the All-American Rejects are a four-piece band best known for pumping out power-pop rock hits. Consisting of lead singer Tyson Ritter, drummer Chris Gaylor, and guitarists Mike Kennerty and Nick Wheeler, AAR has been together since 2001. The band has released three studio albums since its inception, including their self-titled debut – 2005’s smash Move Along – and 2008’s “most anticipated album,” When the World Comes Down. In this video, we chat with Mike about the pressures of following up a hit album, and we ask him if he ever plays Rock Band. For more information click here.

Upon this realization the group decided to pool their efforts in their attempt to materialize the practical applications of this apparent universal theory. For months they drew up plans, tested their theory, collected data, wrote down notes, adjusted their plans and retested the theory. Their efforts proved to be somewhat successful in July of 2008; a step forward, which energized the group and, much like Santiago upon catching a ten-pound albacore that could be used for bait, restored faith in their expedition. Advancements, relatively big and small, continue to be made day by day and, while being aware that great things are built with much time and toil, the group remains confident by keeping their minds on the invention at hand…
