Take two parts Say Anything , add two parts Saves the Day , rock vigorously, and apply generously to ears. Thusly, I can only assume, was the band Two Tongues born. Max and Coby from Say Anything have teamed up with Chris and Dave from Saves the Day to form a group that meshes exceptionally well. There are some great tracks on this self-titled debut. We start things off with "Crawl," a raucous little opening track that starts with a Kraig-approved (possibly) "YEAH!" and features a Max Bemis signature [...]
In the days of knights and maidens, it wasn't an uncommon thing for a nobleman to glorify himself by commissioning a minstrel to write a song. I think. So while some may call Max Bemis's latest idea innovative, and more will call it downright batshit, I'm choosing to nod approvingly at the notion of kicking it really old school. Read more about how for $150 and for a limited time only, Max will write a song for you and only you, your highness. Just like in medieval times, only with [...]

Product photography by Tsuru I know what you are thinkin'.... where's the lovely fine art photography? What's with the old bag with some unknown, yet slightly enticing items in it??? Don't worry, TSURURADIO ain't changin' on you, I just got something pretty cool & special to share (besides Lanni's awesome mixtape), an idea my baby came up with (goddamn, she's so clever)! As you know, on June 6th, I will be putting my cycling addiction and tree-trunks-meet-chicken-legs to good use when I will be riding 100 miles through 7 counties and [...]
New Say Anything album this fall Say Anything leader Max Bemis recently checked with an update on their new album, among other things. "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 [...]
I heard a song on the radio and for a moment I thought it was Saves The Day's "Do You Know What I Love The Most?" But alas, it seems like none of Saves The Day's songs have ever been played on corporate airwaves. Wouldn't life be so much better if we could switch the dial and hear something like this? [Download Saves The Day - Do You Know What I Love The Most?] Saves The Day, headed by Chris Conley, has spent more than a [...]
The 80s saw the birth of the best music from the better half of the century. The problem is that like many similar great works of art, these songs weren't always immediately recognized for their brilliance. So when Van Halen's sexually-rowdy "Hot For Teacher" blares in the strip club scene in Varsity Blues, you can't help but give it a "ten" (a f-ing ten!). It's from there that the song earns it's immortality and lives in film fame for years to come. The only rules to this list: the song couldn't have been written for the movie or [...]
SomaCow Media is proud to present ComaSow brought to you by Copeland . Geoff and I decided we'd try to be a little more prepared, researching the band, reading the full one sheet. So on the way home yesterday, before the live recording of ComaSow, we read the one sheet for Copeland. The writing was so convaluted that we had a bit of a bias going into listening to this band. Maybe reading the one sheets isn't such a good idea. Then again, maybe it gives us some insight. So [...]
Two melancholy and emotionally damaged lead singers walk into a bar…..sounds like the beginning of a joke, but once you replace the bar with a recording studio, the joke turns into a album that is best described as group therapy. Two Tongues is either a side project, or a super group, semantics really, comprised of Max Bemis and Coby Linder of Say Anything and Chris Conley and Dave Soloway of Saves the Day . Both Bemis and Conley are well known for their hyper personal lyrics and wearing their neurosis [...]

Quickly, I'll tell you Say Anything is in the studio working on their next album, but for the life of me I really can't find out anymore information about it. Their poorly designed website has a video up on it , but the blurry, white on black text turned me off and so I didn't try to dig further. *~*~* Speaking to Rock Sound magazine recently, 30STM frontman Jared Leto revealed thoughts on giving away their third album: "Anything can happen, you never know what the future will hold. Maybe we will just [...]
Say Anything studio update #1 Say Anything will be updating their blog to track the new album progress, be sure to keep checking back.
This makes me feel like I'm back in high school. Except instead of the usual bad stuff involved, it's the not-so-bad stuff. Or maybe right out of high school, when I spent hours and hours playing Emogame. Oddly enough, I don't think Chris Conley was ever in any of the Emogames. Can't say that Two Tongues is better than the best that Saves the Day or Say Anything have to offer, but it's pretty enjoyable. I give it 7 and a portion of one more thumbs up.
Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars When Say Anything 's Max Bemis decided to join forces with Saves the Day 's Chris Conley, kids all across the globe were salivating as they awaited the first proper release from Two Tongues. Releasing the album via emo stalwart, Vagrant Records , meant that the union was destined to find an eager audience. The best thing one could hope for in this union is for the lyrical content, as Bemis and Conley have [...]
:: Neil Young is the man. He can get away with anything. How else could you explain him doing a concept album about electric cars . I'll eat that shit up. :: Say Anything is hard at work with Neal Avron on a new album. I guess Bemis and Linder weren't content to rest on their laurels after working with Chris Conley on Two Tongues . :: Eddie Vedder and Dave Grohl will be contributing to a Nick Drake tribute album . There [...]
What do you get when you add one half of Saves The Day to one third of Say Anything ? The answer: Two Tongues . Math test is over. Chris Conley and Dave Soloway (Saves The Day) joined up with Max Bemis and Coby Linder (Say Anything) to form this posi-emo super group. Two Tongue's self-titled album is hitting the streets Feb. 3 from Vagrant. The record is pretty much what you would expect if Conley and Bemis got together. [...]

It's late December, there's a nip in the air, and everyone is panicking while trying to figure out what to do for New Years eve, and on top of all of that, we're all having year end, top ten lists shoved down our throats. The whole format sickens me. Say I was doing the list for the top ten post-hardcore albums of the year. Honestly, I can only come up with two or three. Does that mean that I should fill in an album that disappointed me like Senses Fail's Waiting Room, just so I can [...]
SomaCow Media is proud to present... SomaCow ! T'was the night before Christmas, and the whole damned show Was feeling a bit hostile. Why? I dunno. It could be the fact that J and Ross just cannot, Show up in our studio on time, and un-pot. Ted. Perhaps the malaise comes from Mickey or I's Inability to stop with "We quit Smoking!" lies. Or it could be that two years ago, when started this crap, We [...]
Thanks to everyone who showed up to our festival yesterday, we had a great time and we hope you did as well. Anyways, another good GMM... Enjoy! Is this song even guilty? The word on the street is that Beyonce's new album sucks, but based on this song alone, I would tend to disagree. Beyonce- Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) Yeah, you remember this song. You used to love it, too. Tristan (Tehrodman) and I have been getting really into early '00's pop music, and it's all absolutely fantastic. [...]
