Max Bemis Promises Another Two Tongues Album Some Time “Within The Next Couple Years”

January 28th, 2013 Dayton O'Connor

Max Bemis, principal singer and songwriter for literate, heart-rending pop punk act Say Anything, stated on Twitter today that he’s not done with his long dormant Two Tongues project.

A supergroup originally consisting of Bemis, fellow Say Anything member Coby Linder, Saves The Day frontman Chris Conley, and ex-Saves The Day guitarist David Soloway, Two Tongues only put out one self-titled album way, way back in 2009.

But just because we haven’t heard anything from the group in a couple years doesn’t mean that we should count on them not coming back, according to the tweet from Bemis …

Max Bemis (Say Anything) Writing Comic Book

January 17th, 2013 Dan Bogosian

Max Bemis, best known for fronting (and now that Coby Linder’s left, essentially being) Say Anything, has referenced having some big plans this year beyond Say Anything. He has a child on the way, he’s opened up his song shop with his wife, and now he’s got a comic book from Boom Studios titled Polarity coming out in April.

Max talked about how the comic would be highly influenced by his time in Brooklyn fighting bipolar disorder, saying the series involves “…finding out I have bipolar, dealing with the disease, being in denial that I had …

STREAM/DOWNLOAD: Jeff Turner (XO, Say Anything) – “Do You Really Love Me”

January 1st, 2013 Dan Bogosian

Jeff Turner has been a busy man. The act he’s probably best known for, Say Anything, has recently lost the only drummer it ever had in Coby Linders, and the band he’s one of the main songwriters for, XO, is now signed to Equal Vision Records through Max Bemis’ imprint, Rory Records. For New Years, he released a solo recording of him covering the Daniel Johnston song “Do You Really Love Me”.

HOLY SH!T: Coby Linder Leaves Say Anything

December 28th, 2012 Dan Bogosian

Coby Linder, long time drummer for Say Anything and beach body specialist (seriously, follow him on Twitter and get some health advice), has left Say Anything. Max had been hinting at major news coming from the band, but for it to turn into this blew me away.

Max Bemis said “As of a couple weeks ago, Coby and I made the mutual decision to retire his role as the permanent drummer of Say Anything. This choice was made for a multitude of reasons, many involving where both Coby and I are at personally in our lives versus our roles …

XO Sign To Max Bemis’ Equal Vision Records Imprint, Rory Records

December 13th, 2012 Dan Bogosian

Say Anything front man Max Bemis started his own imprint of Equal Vision Records called Rory Records last year. The only band he had signed at the time was Tallhart, but they have since signed Merriment! and now XO. XO may be known as a side-project to some people, as its primary band members are Jeff and Jake Turner, both musicians already in Say Anything; despite this, there’s reason to think this the Turner’s primary project with Max handling most of the writing in Say Anything.

On the signing, Bemis said “Though it seems obvious for …

Saves The Day Announce Next Album, Launch Funding Campaign

November 23rd, 2012 Dan Bogosian

Well, I suppose I was off with my last prediction. Saves The Day have announced their eighth studio album; they’ll begin recording this February in hopes to have it out by summer. They’ve announced the funding campaign for it, available here, which is one of the few music funding campaigns I’ve seen not on Kickstarter. Some of the best goodies are having their lead guitarist and bassist record parts on your album, being their roadie for a day, and having you choose the set list. If I was rich, I’d be going wild with Saves The Day nerdiness …

New Saves the Day Will Be Their “Most Uplifting” Record Yet

September 28th, 2012 Dan Bogosian

Pop/punk powerhouse Saves the Day recently conducted an interview with fellow AbsoluteVoices website Alter the Press!. In it, guitarist Arun Bali and vocalist Chris Conley talk about the future of the band, the next album, and working with Max Bemis of Say Anything in the Two Tongues.

When asked about STD’s next record, Chris said “We’ve got ten songs, I think, for the next record already – without lyrics, but the melodies and chords and everything. It feels quite different. Each record is always a departure from the last. As Arun said, unintentionally it just sort of happens and …
