Album Notes
Personnel: Max Bemis (vocals, guitars, keyboards, electric bass); Caitlin Broderick, Patrick Currie, Adrienne Pearson, Kyle Fischer, Sierra Swan, Blair Shehan, Robb McLean, Robert Mann, Vanessa Peters (vocals); Stephen Trask (guitar, piano); Casey Prestwood (guitars, slide guitar); Coby Linder (drums, percussion).
Modern pop-punk and emo are not usually known for depth but Say Anything bucked conventions with the complex, self-reflexive IS A REAL BOY, a high-minded concept album that tells as much about the band's real leader, Max Bemis, as it does about his fictional surrogate. Bemis's battle with bipolar disorder is dire, but the music he's crafted out of his troubles is colorful and busy, folding confessional lyrics into bright arrangements like the keyboard stabbing of "Wow, I Can Get Sexual Too" and the fuzzy overdrive of "Every Man Has a Molly."

Industry Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- SAY ANYTHING is premium emo, with frills...


Pun-filled stories of despair and twisted come-ons ride on tracks that recall Weezer's orchestrated anthems mixed with Supergrass' boozy pub-punk. -- Grade: B+
