Free Music Review: If You Say Emo One More Time, You Perish
Hit: 5 Stars

Sunny Day Real Estate never had to categorize themselves as "emo", nor do I think they ever acknowledged the terminology. They simply put forth melodic rock music that could send ice cold chills down your unsuspecting spine. Each album was a step further towards greatness from the last and though they released one more studio recording to follow this one, "How It Feels..." was less a comeback album and more a work of utter genius.

Carefully constructed and written like a historic novel, Sunny Day Real Estate really touched a nerve when released this album. "Diary" seemed to showcase their emotional bent while "The Pink Album" proved their ability to rock. "How It Feels..." was the culmination of both aspects combined into one great triumphant release. Each song flowed smoothly into the next. The rhythmns are easy to digest and rewarding to comprehend. From their mellowest calm to their most aggressive, Sunny Day Real Estate makes you feel something that most bands don't know even exists.

Dashboard Confessional. Jimmy Eat World. "Insert Generic Melodic Rock Band" here. These bands will NEVER be what Sunny Day Real Estate was then or still remains to be today. If you are content throwing your money at bands that don't come close despite mainstream culture stating otherwise, that is your choice. But, I would be willing to bet that upon hearing greatness that can only be named Sunny Day Real Estate, the aforementioned bands will soon be collecting dust at the bottom of your CD rack.
