(Published in Rag Magazine's April 2007 issue).No matter what happens to them, Saves the Day always seems to make the most of it. After being bounced around from label to label and losing a beloved band member to cancer (just to name a few), the band always seems to make the most out of their misfortunes. With a new album entitled Under the Boards slated for a release in the fall, band member...

That's right, I like emo. And guess what? I'm not ashamed.I think emo often gets a bad rap for the same reason that 70's soft (read: "wuss") rock does. The unifying theme is-- let's face it-- guys getting sensitive. And nothing could be less "rock" (by the standard definition) than that. Rock in the classic sense wants nothing to do with heart-on-sleeve sincerity...unless that sincerity can get...

I think I'm going to start a list of my favourite love songs, thanks to this song popping up on my shuffle (Third Engine). I remember hearing a rumor that this song was written by the lead singer of Saves the Day to another man. Love Songs:(in no particular order)1. Gorecki- Lamb2. Body Parts - Jump Little Children3. We're In This Together Now - NIN4. Clavicle - Alkaline Trio5. Wonderwall - R...

I'm assuming that everyone else has those songs, right? I mean those songs that you just love forever and, no matter how many times you listen to them, they're just totally satisfying because you could never get sick of them even if you tried. I have a bajillion of those songs and "At Your Funeral" by Saves the Day is definitely one of them. This song just NEEDS to belted out at the top of one'...

After falling hard, for Saves the Day, in 2003 i've always enjoyed them immensely. I always enjoy listening to the albums Stay what you are, Through being cool and Can't slow down. But as of last night i've been listening to only their new CD Sound the alarm. And i have to say, with pleasure, that it is amazing. Lead singer Chris Conley's once scratchy and adolescent voice has matured all of th...

This band is great, they mix pop with rock and punk. I first heard of them when I was watching Life On The Murder Scene, the My Chemical Romance DVD. There's this one part where Gerard is singing and dancing while listening ti an iPod. I thought the song sounded pretty catchy, and obviously it must be good if Gerard was listening to it. So I googled the lyrics and then downloaded the song. Sinc...

Many elitist punks out there will probably scoff at the fact that I'm posting Saves The Day, but in all honesty, their 2nd album "Through Being Cool" is a solid pop-punk album. If you can get past the whiny vocals, you'll see they have (or had, I actually never followed the band except for this record) some solid punk influences. Definitely will be a shock to those only familiar with thei...

I was thinking about making a list of my favorite cds from 2006 but I'm having a lot of difficulty because there are a lot of cds I've heard that I really hate, but I can tell they're excellent... I just hate the listening experience. Best example is the new Saves the Day album, which to me is like a horror film with its graphic lyrics and in my face 'tude. If I liked being sonically raped I'd ...
