Saves the Day vocalist/guitarist Chris Conley may only be a thirty-something, but he's already had a 14-year career some musicians can only dream of. With 10 albums, including popular B-side and acoustic recordings, a side project with Say Anything's Max Bemis, and legions of adoring fans, Conley is proof that the early guitarist catches the worm. He sat down recently with Consequence of Sound to discuss finishing the band's forthcoming album Daybreak , honest songwriting, lyrical dismemberment, and philosophy. You guys have the new album coming out this fall, Daybreak . [...]
Welcome to the annual "Top Albums of the Year" list. As I expected, 2009 was an amazing year for music. Putting together this list was much harder than I anticipated. There were so many quality albums that did not make the cut and I'm sure I'll kick myself two months from now for leaving something [...]
The world of emo music breeds strong allegiances. You might listen to a lot of bands, but one name and one name only is tattooed on your heart: you're a Saves the Day fan or a Dashboard die-hard or a Brand New fanboy first and foremost. Consequently, it was with some trepidation that this committed Saves the Day disciple first pressed play on Two Tongues ' self-titled debut after months of careful avoidance. Two Tongues is a side project combining the vocal and guitar talents of Saves the Day frontman Chris Conley and bassist David Soloway with [...]
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 [...]

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 [...]
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 [...]
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.

Two Tongues post Pavement-inspired new song "Wowee Zowee" Two Tongues (feat. Chris Conley and Max Bemis) have posted a new track entitled " Wowee Zowee " from their upcoming self-titled album over at their myspace .
Counting the undisputedly awesome cover artwork above, there are a handful of reasons to be excited about the self-titled Two Tongues album that hits stores Feburary 3 via Vagrant .
