November 2nd was the 10th anniversary of one of my favorite records of all time: Through Being Cool by Saves The Day. It was a landmark album for pop-punk community, and their most highly revered and influential record. I got this song on a mix tape in high school, and bought the record the next day. If I had a car, I would spend tonight driving and blasting this just like I did when I was 16. Guess I’ll have to wait until the 20th anniversary and pray my kids don’t mind listening to dad’s “old-people” music in the car. Eek.
amazing. this is one of my favorite albums of all time. feeling old right now. i am going to have a kid just so i can make them listen to this…

Saves the Day is one of those few bands that i can say I listened to as a kid and still do. Their music kicks butt and that album has such amazing energy it gives me chills just thinking about it. Thanks for bringing up its wonderful-ness! ^_^

I love STD
Last year I went to a concert where they were the headliners. Opening act: Metro Station (ugh).
It was great to see all the annoying teens clear out as soon as Metro Station set was finished. The only people left for STD were clearly over 21, had better taste, and a better view of the band. We need more arists like Saves The Day
