Say Anything will release Say Anything on November 3rd through RCA records.

“The record is about becoming the hero of your own story by fighting against what opposes you,
both within yourself and from other people and society. There is a deep spiritual unity that all
people possess and once you let go of the sort of mind control you and others can place on yourself,
you can tap into it, and it's like having superpowers. It can lead you through an adventure no
matter who you are, how dark your past is, or how messed up of a person you think you are." - Max Bemis

From their website:
say anything WILL be putting out a new album next year. we'll be recording it in l.a this winter and the record will be called "Say Anything." yes, self titled. the nature of the record has changed since we intended on calling it "this is forever", also these two dj guys put out a record called that and would probably sue us. if any person has followed our band, they understand our albums tell the story of a simple dude (me) and his evolution in life. this is the part where, having gone through his "idealistic--yet-furious-virgin" phase (baseball), young "drunk-angry-pukey-sex" phase (is a real boy), his "reaping - the - benefits - of - years - of - self - abuse - by - being - stuck - in - a - terrible -relationship" phase (in defense of the genre), he is finally confronted with the question of what the point of all of it was. what is the moral of the story? why be in a band? why try to "get" the girl? you spend years bitching or hurting yourself and others until you realize there is really something to fight for and something to fight against and being a man means drawing the line. that, my friends, is where the real adventure begins. this album is self titled for a reason; it will take all the musical and lyrical themes of every say anything song, and attempt to resolve them and infuse them with something pure and direct. i am not going to " brandon flowers it" and say this is going to be the record that saves rock n' roll, or makes pitchfork.com finally admit we had it all along. those things are not only pre-packaged indie rock nay nay but are also pointless and fleeting. i don't know how far our album will get us commercially or even if all of you amazing ap.net friends will show up the day it comes out, say it blows, and change your " fatty max bemis with a cigarette" icon to a "hot picture of first-button-undone anthony green" icon. however, if my opinion matters to you, i promise that i love these songs to death. I REALLY hope you do too and that's all i can pray for. For those who thought in defense, while cool, was too long and serious; i see this next outing as more darkly humorous and concise. for those of you who dug is a real boy but appreciate our later maturity, such as the addition of real singing to the drunken sailor routine; this record looks like it will be even more of a step forward, without giving away too much. We are so thankful for your love. I am constantly humbled before your appreciation and I never thought we'd get this far, so we NEED to pay you back with a cool album or we'll be doing carnival-cruise-line-emo-nostaglia tours with jefree starr by the time you guys are forty. We will work it to the bone to not let you down. Recording begins ths winter in Los Angeles, California.Thank you.Max

Not a chance. Max has said this record will be even "poppier" than IDOTG. Poppy and cohesive is not the Say Anything I fell in love with. Well, that's not totally true. IARB had some really poppy melodies and, as an album, it is extremely cohesive and well-paced but there's something else in the songs on IARB that makes them special. Whether it's a pitchy melody from Max or an out-of-tune, off-time guitar solo, or completely ridiculous, anti-pop hook, or lyrics breaking the "fourth wall" or sorts between band and listener, IARB had an edge to it that was completely missing from IDOTG.

You think that Baseball was pop punk? If Is A Real Boy was stupid, Baseball is a monstrosity. IARB took Baseball and expanded it into a more intelligent, more original (more than Baseball at least), and overall better album. If Baseball is pop-punk, so is IARB. They aren't that different in terms of what genres they fit into. Say Anything do not sound like FOB, besides the obvious similarities that all modern rock bands like them have. Say Anything is a lot harder than Fall Out Boy. Fall Out Boy never transcended through any genres. The reason that they got worse is not that they switched genres, it's that their songwriting quality became weaker.

It is not smart to judge an entire double-disc album by one song.

Don't get me wrong, Tim Kinsella is one of my favorite artists, I love everything he's ever done, but he was asking for it. Max Bemis didn't bash him for no reason. Tim Kinsella bashed a hundred bands for no reason. You don't even know what you're talking about.

1) i'm talking about menorah/majorah, the EP.
2) i never said say anything sound like fall out boy. i said they both wrote solid pop punk songs and therefore thought they could make entire pop albums.
3) tim kinsella wrote a satirical article in which he criticized the way bands sound alike, but for the most part it was a total joke.

You guys on the cover (one of you was 13 in 2001, so you're now at draft age), we need you to quit.

yep, he's totally serious. you DEFINITELY know what you're talking about.

First of all, do you think it's wrong to listen to things in multiple genres? I don't listen to music to fit into any mold of music-listener. I don't mean to be indie or punk or emo. I listen to music that I like? hmmmmmmmm.

I agree, but I still at least have respect for Max Bemis for standing up against one of his heroes for something he believes in. Tim Kinsella came off as a conceited prick. Whether you like it or not, he did. That guy (whoever I quoted, can't remember his name) stated that Max Bemis bashed Kinsella for no reason. That's bullshit. Tim Kinsella took it upon himself to judge the music industry and make decisions for it. No matter who is doing it, that is bullshit.

Didn't he say that it will be more along the lines of IARB than IDOTG? Either way I doubt it will be a huge disappointment. He said that with IDOTG he had a specific vision of the way he wanted to experiment with the songs and the like, and with the new one he is going to be more authentic.

I meant listen on a consistent basis. AKA why I used the present/future tense word "listen" as opposed to "listened", a preterite-tense word.

That is not the point that you hinted at. If that was then your post didn't even make any sense. You just randomly criticized me for listening to some music that you would consider good and some that you would consider bad? How does that further the argument at all?

Kinsella was stating the truth. The dude shouldn't have to tiptoe around what he believes. And as stated before, it was SATIRE.

and kinsella didn't make any decisions for the music industry, do you think any of those bands were going to take his advice for one split second? nope.

Disagree. Being a talented musician and songwriter doesn't give him the liberty to tell anyone how to live their lives and what is best for the music industry. Yes, he can say whatever he wants, whether its correct or not. Anybody can. That is proven by the post you just made. He doesn't even practice what he preaches. He criticized the scene for having too many bands, yet he participates in a bunch of different bands. Bemis made a good argument and while I far and away prefer Kinsella's music, Bemis was right and unless you have a biased opinion, you should agree. He basically was going against everything America represents. If he thinks that only the best musicians should be able to create bands, fine, he can go start his own country and create the Sparta of musicians, killing anybody with a minor defect. Here in American, we can pursue our dreams whether conceited pricks like Kinsella like it or not. Kinsella didn't provide a good, well-thought out argument. He did that to gain attention and to show his superiority over other musicians. I'm sure the 18 year old Kinsella that sang in caP'n Jazz would kick the new Kinsella's ass if they ever met.

Max posted an update...:-)


Hi everyone

Maxim Adam Bemis here. I just arrived at my home in Tyler, Texas after a hellish road trip from California, during which my ac broke, my tire blew, and i got towed to a random town in the middle of the desert. I was probably the first Jew they'd seen in the last decade but they were friendly to me. After all, we're both desert people.

I just wanted to let you guys know we're done recording our new record, entitled Say Anything, and we're moving into the mixing phase. It should be out this fall. This record is kind of a new start, or at least a new phase in the Say Anything story. You'll be seeing some changes in our camp from the live show all the way to the lack of zoolander-esque promo shots. I'm so, so proud of what we've done and where we're going and although I'm very happy with our first two records, I think you guys will agree that this album sounds more like Say Anything then anything the band has ever recorded, as well as moving the band in a direction that is true to what you guys, our fans, really love about us.

We'll be returning to touring sooner than you think, and in a way you've never seen or heard before. More on that to come, but we can assure you once the record is out we'll be becoming true blue road warriors again. Also for those of you who like our lyrics and songwriting, I'll be going back to doing some actual fiction writing over the course of the next year, so be prepared for me to project my insecu rities and subconscious desires onto fake humans of my creation and make them do horrible things to each other!

Please stay tuned; when my computer is fixed, I'll be starting to do some semi-regular video updates leading up to the record. I semi-promise! I also want to finally mention THANK YOU to those of you who have been so happy about me finally settling down with my amazing wife. Despite a few little butt-straggler dingleberries, you guys have been so joyous and cool and loving about the whole thing; it feels like it's because you guys know that I've been through hell. Finally being fulfilled is like a dream come true. More to come, daddies!

Didn't he say that it will be more along the lines of IARB than IDOTG? Either way I doubt it will be a huge disappointment. He said that with IDOTG he had a specific vision of the way he wanted to experiment with the songs and the like, and with the new one he is going to be more authentic.
What Max said was that it'd be more like IARB in the sense that the songs are going to be more original than they were on IDOTG, in which he was often just imitating other artists. I haven't really enjoyed any of the new songs I've seen and the Two Tongues record was garbage so I'm setting myself up for disappointment.

I mean listen to yourselves, Max Bemis has pretty much mastered the art of pop and is doing new and original things. Fuck the self-indulgent asshole who wants every Say anything album to sound just like "is a real boy". The new album will be amazing and the band always puts 100% into their records and Max tries desparately to connect with his fans. Whether it is song shop where he writes a song individually for each fan or playing private acoustic shows for kids in parking lots, i mean come on the guy is a fuckin' pioneer. The only thing you can fault Max for is sometimes caring for what you strange, slow old people have to say. So fuck you, try to write a song that anyone wouldn't piss on and maybe you are justified to open your shit filled mouth. Until then suck my balls and suck max's dick.

2. Just because someone doesn't like IDOTG, doesn't mean they're a "self-indulgent asshole", no matter what Max Bemis tells you to think.
3. If you honestly think Max Bemis is the first guy to play in a parking lot for fans or write songs at a fan's request (which he does in exchange for $150, I might add) you need to get your ass into your local scene and spend some of that song shop money supporting the artists who have been doing that shit in your own backyard since before Max Bemis even knew how to string together a dencet metaphor.
4. "Stange, slow, old people" is a direct quote from Max Bemis. It's what he called the people at PunkNews who don't like his band. Ask yourself, why does he feel the need to constantly insult anyone who doesn't like him? Insecure, much?

Trent Reznor and Thom York, whose bands are infinitely bigger than Max's, do "local scene" stuff all the time. Stop cumming all over Max charging $150 for a 60 second song and go support your locals.

If "Crush'd" is definately "Awkward" retitled, then I much preferred the original title.

I like the song regardless though. The chorus is kind of meh, but hopefully it sounds better on the album version.

What? Max Bemis was only born because Nick Drake died. If Nick Drake had lived, we'd have more beauty and less Bemis.

Unsure about the whole 'I traded an e for an apostrophe, so I'm cool now' thing in "Crush'd". Sounds more like it belongs on Avril Lavigne's track listing, but hopefully the music will speak for itself. And include the letter E.

As for Say Anything, this next album will probably make or break them in my eyes. I loved IARB, but IDOTG was far from great. I have to admit that I've got more hope than you do though, haha.

A question for The Personist.. and I mean this in the most respectful way: If you are truly impressed by SA's new record (even if you've already convinced yourself that you're going to hate it), will you have the guts to admit you actually like it?

I don't argue your opinion on the band, and I have no beef with you that you don't like them. It's just getting a tad redundant and obnoxious not being able to read a SA topic without every second post being you hating on the band =/

If I'm truly impressed, I'll admit it. Having heard the live and acoustic stuff he's played from it, that doesn't seem likely. But if it floors me, I'll fess up.

I haven't shaved in like 6 days but that's because I'm too poor to buy shaving gel.

Unfortunately, I fear that my lack of shaving will not satisfy your need for Max to produce a beard.
