Say Anything pwns! Aug 04, 2008 Say Anything is amazing. I liked "Is a Real Boy" better, but this album is more experimental and unique, so it's definately worth listening to.
U Tube videos are better! Jun 27, 2008 I liked some of these, but I liked the ones I saw on U Tube where they were performing electrically or acoustically at a club, better than the album versions.
A Little Bit of Everything Jun 06, 2008 Just shortly after ...Was a boy was released, Bemis and his crew have returned for another Say Anything CD. with In Defense of the Genre, Max has given us 27 new tracks. now before i even bought the CD i realized that there was going to be a lot of filler, which there is. its very hard to put out a pop-punk CD with zero filler these days, especially a double disc effort. that being said, there are some highlights. Skinny Mean Man, In Defense of the Genre, People Like You, and I Used to Have a Heart are all classic Say Anything songs. for those of you who like the more acoustic side theres An Insult to the Dead and Goodbye Young Tutor. where this album loses its credibility with me are the more poppy sounding songs. About Falling belongs on an old Blink 182 album and so does Girlfriend.
overall, this is a decent album. people will argue that its not Baseball or Menorah/Majora but those days are over. this is the new Say Anything sound and its whats going to continue. this CD is worth the purchase, just be ready to skip over a few tracks
Wow... Apr 21, 2008 This is a terrible cd compared to their previous efforts. A lot of interesting cameos, a lot of songs, little interest in listening to this cd. I somewhat enjoy listening to a few songs, but Max needed to spend a bit more time on this. It's just not up to par. Where did the genius go?

Another hit! Dec 08, 2007 Say Anything has done it again with their latest album "In Defense of the Genre." Featuring 27 songs on two discs, each song is unique and completely alters the way you will see Say Anything as a band. Their last album "...Is/Was a Real Boy" used mostly acoustics and featured songs that focused on emotional uprising and story. "In Defense of the Genre" has evolves from this to include more technical wizardy and thus feels more popish, but more professional and polished. Although Disc 1 is nearly flawless, Disc 2 has some problems, but there are enough hits on it without being a dud. It doesn't matter, however, as there are a plethora of good songs to listen to between the two discs. Definitely a must buy for anyway interested in great music!
