2) Under_Score (pronounced “under score” or jokingly as “underunderscorescore”) is a garage band formed in 2004 in Snellville, Georgia. Its members included Adam Thornton (vocals), Justin “J-Gris” Grissom (guitar), Brian Yontz (guitar), Chris Green (bass), and Josh Durham (drums). The band went through other names as it began, initially called Thumper, then Vinyl Supremacy. Finally, Under_Score was picked. There were also some lineup changes: Most notably, Chris Malone played drums for the band originally, before dropping out. Chris Allen joined the band not much later, playing on guitar.

Under_Score released one self-titled EP, which contained five tracks. The EP included a cover of The Darkness’ hit single “I Believe In A Thing Called Love” and four original songs: “Tag” (more well-known as “I Wanna Talk To You”; featured J-Gris on vocals during the chorus and later verses), “Lifetime”, “She Left Me For Dead”, and a tribute medley song that contained guitar parts from “Crazy Train” and “Smoke On The Water” and threw in vocals from “You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)”.

The group disbanded between one and two years after their formation. Since then, Adam Thornton has performed with local Christian rock bands Seventh Soul (on keyboards and backing vocals) and the somewhat less popular Exit Audio (on keys and lead vocals). The other members of Under_Score have not performed since, other than a few songs played briefly after Under_Score’s disbandment, under the alias of Kollage, with Alex Harris. Thornton sang briefly with Kollage, but left shortly after.
