PunkStop Profile - Say Anything

Say anything.

That is exactly what Max Bemis does with his band "Say Anything," he says whatever he wants or whatever is on his mind...resulting in some bold yet highly bizarre lyrics. Max has Bipolar disorder but for some reason I get the feeling that his "disorder" actually helps him to create the amazing music the band makes.

Say Anything is one of the most talented bands of its genre... and there latest CD "In Defense of The Genre," sure defends a genre that is stereotypically not known to feature a whole lot of talent, but boy these guys got talent. Their current bass player, Alex Kent, is personally one of my favorite bass players, for he always plays really busy cool lines. Their drummer is pretty decent, having some cool fills here and there and the guitars are really good as well. "In Defense of the Genre" Is a must have for bass players... and all other musicians as well that are fans of the genre.

Speaking of "genre" Say Anthing is a really diverse band that features hip hop, dance, punk, rock, pop punk, pop, emo, and even funk in many of their songs.

To keep this post relatively short, Say Anything is a truly unique band that is jam-packed with talent, and most importantly, Say Anything mixes a diverse amount of styles of music to really create their own "sound." "In Defense of the Genre" Is a must have for musicians, or just fans of pop punk whatever kind of music in general.
