Album Notes
2006's SOUND THE ALARM marks a return to form for Saves the Day, harking back to the prototypical angsty emocore sound that they helped create. Themes of alienation, frustration, suicide, death, and mutilation are typical topics for STD lyrics, and lead singer Chris Conley's voice, which veers between a desperate yelp and a cynical sneer, relays them with conviction. But STD's music is also steeped in hopped-up punk-pop, with lots of grinding guitar hooks and memorable melodies ringing through on nearly every track. While not a great leap forward for the band, SOUND THE ALARM should please their old-school fans.
Industry Reviews
[They] have rediscovered their riff-heavy melodies to go along with ALARM's impressively righteous indignation. -- Grade: B
[S]hort, fast and angry....We applaud them for beefing up their sound...
3 stars out of 5 -- They plough their meat 'n' potatoes furrow with laudable, single-minded determination.
