Say Anything formed in Minneapolis in 2002 around frontman Max Bemis. Their debut album 'Is a Real Boy' came out in 2004, followed by 'In Defense of the Genre' in 2007. That album included 'Alive With The Glory Of Love,' which became their most recognizable song.
Bemis has been open about his bipolar disorder, and his lyrics often deal with personal struggles in a direct, sometimes theatrical way. Songs like 'Wow, I Can Get Sexual Too' and 'Baby Girl, I'm A Blur' show a mix of confessional writing and punk energy. The band's sound pulls from emo and indie rock, with arrangements that can shift from quiet to loud without much warning.
They've released several other albums, including 'Anarchy, My Dear' and 'Hebrews.' The lineup has changed over time, with Bemis remaining the constant member. Their work has a dedicated following, particularly among listeners who connected with the emotional rawness of those early records.
