Rockers Go GLAM

Glamour Kills, clothing line and sponsor of bands such as Houston Calls and Say Anything, recently unveiled its new summer line. Almost all of the shirts are unisex (and really rad). Click here to check out the new line...and buy me something.

I want that hoodie!

You Should Know...

Saves the Day! Singer and songwriter, Chris Conley, is one of the kings of emo (no matter who hates that label), and the band has been around with varying members since 1997. Sometimes it seems hard to understand what exactly is so special about this band, but a lot of people tend to answer "the lyrics," which are undeniably poetic in their own right.

Interesting Fact: Saves the Day is Say Anything frontman Max Bemis's favorite band.

This is an amateur recording of the STD classic "Rocks Tonic Juice Magic" from the 1999 release, Through Being Cool, when STD played it acoustic in Chicago earlier this year.


"Heart is on the floor/ Why don't you step on it!" Umm...I'll go ahead and label this song under "guilty pleasure" where it rightfully belongs.

Defending, but Laughing at Indie Music


Say Anything's new two-disc album In Defense of the Genre is now out and available for purchase!

Is it just me or does Say Anything, despite making great music, always seem to be sort of laughing at themselves? The album seems like a more subtle version of Bob Dylan's outward snickering on the original recording of "All I Really Want To Do." Anyway, I have been listening to "Spores" and "About Falling" on repeat these past few days. Here are some lyrics from those songs that I find especially attention-getting...

Spores: "You know I still know how to fuck your eyes crossed"

About Falling:
"And I don't really even care if I'm alone now/ And I don't really give a damn about falling in love/ My body burning by my heavy heart of stone now./ And I don't really give a damn about falling in love."
