One of The Sexy Armpit's favorite things to do is to check out local bands since they are usually more interesting and put on a better show than the majority of bands who just sit on their mounds and mounds of cash and feel like they can go out and play the same show and same setlist that they've been doing for 10 years. People pay for tickets to concerts so they deserve a KICK-ASS show in return. The following bands were chosen by The Sexy Armpit under 2 conditions: 1) they hail from NJ or NY 2) their music is not boring 3) the band puts on an awesome show. This begins our annual NYE countdown of The Sexy Armpit's Top 10 Bands of the Year!


10. Rapid Fire - F*cking METAL. That is all. They will permanently freeze your fingers into devil horns. Now for the kicker - these dudes are in high school. I was still playing with action figures in high school.
