The reason this band is so underappreciated is that they've become THE archetypal emo band (along with dashboard confessionals).

I cant ever get enough of these guys.I had read Dairy of a drug fiend and got this CD ..I had a dream of running through Europe getting high using magic and this cd was playing all through it.
I love that guitar part in the beginning, a very memorable intro, I couldn't stop playing it myself when I started learning several years ago XD Who cares whether it's emo or whether their theme was different later. Listen to the sound people.
@tcbansai you're so right, I've always been told this was one of the emo breakthrough songs, but its strong guitar and slight whine in his Boise makes it a classic example of grunge :)
@tceBansai It is Emotive. Why do people get insulted by that? SDRE is proud of being the cornerstone of Emo. You should respect that genre for being the most missunderstood style in the world.
@modtang thanks. i appreciate that. i dont think ther thta great and...GASP!....im not a pedo!? nooo...impossible...be a little bit moere understanding...i dont have the same concept of great music as u do...
emo, stands for "emotional music", sunn day where the pioneers of the emo genre due to their deep lyrics. however although emo music was pretty good in the 90's the bands today have taken it way to far and is the most hated genre around
@nick0is0ace "Emo" is the stupidest genre name ever. I was around before emo. I listened to music from before emo. There's a LOT of music that's very emotional that's not "emo." Defining a genre by being emotional is stupid, as it implies prog isn't emotional, or punk isn't emotional, or classical, or jazz, or anything else.
seriously lets just abolish the word "emo" .. it doesn't mean fuck all and it just pisses people off when they hear it including myself... this is just plain awesome music!!!!!!
I come from the old school when emo was emo and goth was goth, how the two got mixed up is beyond me, i am embaressed now by "emo" SDRE, was my fave during my early 20's, they were truely amazing!!!
Emo started with Ian Mckaye. look it up here on youtube. what is considered "emo" today is NOTHING what the orignal was at all. Emo today is a joke. Anyone who compares the two is ignorant.
Dude this band kicks ass a good friend of myn let me listen to them I'm like holy shit this is heavy. Wish we knew about them before they broke up. Heard they are doing a new cd and tour.
you're making it a bit simple, don't you think? not everything today is bullshit, even some newer emo bands are great, you just don't find them on the radio or tv anymore.
@facefacts911 What does the modern emo's clohing have to do with anything? The deep lyrics and the melodies are what make Emo, and most of the modern Emo keeps that culture going. Your stereotypes are false. And most emo artists DON'T use swoop hair OR skinny jeans.
@MrMcGale Yes but a lot of kids that call themselves emo do swoop hair and wear skinny jeans today. And I know some "emo" kids who dress like that and don't even listen to music. They call themselves emo because they make tiny little cuts on their arm and complain about how badly they need to feel pain.
@crazypersonface I have swoop hair with red stripes. I wear eyeliner. Yet no skinny jeans... And are we supposed to judge people by clothing? No, they can listen what they want. And did you know that most emos don't cut their arms. Depressed people do.
@MrMcGale Yeah I know that. I put emo in quotes because thats what they call themselves. They don't listen to me when I say that emo doesnt mean cutting your wrist, tight jeans, and swoop hair. I'm not saying I have anything against that, but thats not emo. Also I meant to put they dont listen to emo music.
@crazypersonface Say them that I, a veteran/pro-emo have said them to listen to Emotive or fuck off. ANd tell them that 700 people die each year of an accidental wrist-cut that was too big. And tell them that they are "Scene" if they're not really emo. "Emo Scene" is an attention whore.
@MrMcGale Yeah I guess they're emo scene then. But I know they don't have depression and are only cutting for attention because they show me all the time expecting to get attention. Also, some of them don't even cut themselves. They scratch themselves on the wrist then show everyone right after they do it. I also didn't mean to start a fight, sorry about that, I have nothing against emo at all.
@facefacts911 There was def a "look" back then too, just watch old footage of SDRE, american football, get up kids, etc etc. They're literally dressed the same, same head bob, and arms crossed through the entire sets.
i don't see how this is emo at all... people who like 'emo' never heard of SDRE and people who love SDRE during their hayday hate 'emo'. i blame critics and wikipedia on this association. sunny day was part of the alternative/grunge revolution and are closer to bands like early filter meets early radiohead, except they were all their own and were totally awesome. do you see eyeliner, feathered hair, and tight jeans? nope, these guys rocked.
Wow, never heard this group, even though it looks like they've been around for at least 3 years, There are so many bands these days. they've got a great sound- tight, powerful, quite a wall of sound they put up, strong drumming, fab guitar sounds. I have no idea what the lyrics are, but that's usual. you can dance to it. thanx for sharing.
@rhythmantic They're from the 90's, my ex husband came to know of them from snowboarding video's but they never really became 'mainstream'. They really were an amazing band, I have all their songs downloaded. I believe the singer became a bible thumper and left the band. Some of the songs had the drummer singing, I think he was originally the main singer but people liked the guy with the higher voice.
real emo- someone who doesnt care which music is "emo" and which isnt. does what they like. doesnt go around saying "im emo" doesnt research how to be emo on the internet. doesnt copy other emos or do something just because thats what emos are supposed to act like
my 2 cents: emo, much like stoner is a subgenre which has woven itself in a lot of different music styles, ranging from pop, all the way to hardcore. I consider myself a die hard emo fan, and I love the way how through the years, it opened my mind to a lot of genres. unfortunantely most of my fellow fans do not seem to agree.... *sigh*: things where much simpler when we just called all of it 'rock'
@beechBD good point. it's a shame all those 'fans' need to have their identity (read:genre) so bad, they forget that the real beauty of our generation's music, is excactly the fact that it doesn't cling to stereotypes about genres so much. While other generations had the fortune of starting entire new musical genres, we get to experiment by mixing and rearanging all they thought us.
how the fuck are these guy's not huge?!?! they're like the biggest influence on paramore, and countless other band's, goes to show even the awesome don't make it as far as you'd like...
@06koroow maybe it's better that way. for some reason i think if SDRE went big they'd crash and fall under after awhile. i know they are not around no more but they went quietly and left us with great music instead of mainstream drama.
God damn, why the hell do people get on here and have to say, "Oh, this is so emo." Why do you have to put labels on everything, why can't you just listen to it and decide whether or not you like it, and just stop not liking things because they are "emo". This is some music at it's best.
Totally agree. "Emo" is the stupidist genre name of all time. I love SDRE, and when a friend told me they were emo (back in 2000), and that it meant emotional music, I told him that's redundant. One of the most emotional songs of all time is "And You and I" by Yes, a prog song, or "Piano Man" by Billy Joel, a rock song, or "Only a Dream" by Mary Chapin Carpenter, a folk song.
do you know how complex sdre's composition is? for the most part in manyof they're songs all the instruments play completely diferent things to make an overall interesting and progressive melody that we all love. like both gitars do completely different melodies and the bass holds both together. they're truly music geniuses,.... and drummer just is so fucking amazing!
Man I was so little when these guys were just getting in their groove and what an impact they make... I think they're one of the most unique bands ever especially his voice it's honestly beautiful sooo much power too bad they brokeup and are kinda forgotten and lost in the pages of Rock n roll Like the youth today my generation is just dead in the image of yesterdays pieces it's an image to sell and everyones buying everythings becoming the same were sooo fucking dead...

Where's the music
I deeply enjoy when the full power of the guitar kicks in after the slow melodic parts.
And of course I love how deep the lyrics are...
The 90s was a time of great music.Wish that musical flow of ingenuity could've lasted until my generation(and longer than that too)...But,alas I can always listen to the great treasures of the past..
Phenomenal video. SDRE is one of my all-time favorites and highly overlooked and underrated. Their music is no doubt standing the test of time, as they sound just as fresh and original now as they did almost twenty years ago.
@iscarabaid77 are u a tard? this band has been around since '92 probably before you were born u little shit go enjoy your nickelback and shut the fuck up
@DarthKazi I know, but whether or not they are biblical, they seem almost true. This came to mind because I've read some essays once in highschool about drugs and substance abuse, and a lot of these lyrics seem related in some ways to I've read. The lyric ♫Crooked deals can make you wealthy♫ itself just reminds me of it.
phoney emo? Simple Plan and Boys Like Girls are pop-rock you retarded git, these kids are emo, and with them died most mainstream attention with the genre,
You have your head to far up your ass its almost returned to its starting position
Simple Plan and Boys Like Girls are 00's bands, Sunny Day Real Estate is 90's, it's not possible for them to knock them off, your shit is so backwards its unbelievable
@OriginalityImpaired nathan and johnny has mental issues if for i he thinks that they sound like either of those shitty bands and twoo if he thinks they knocked off their shitty style. sdr is way older and better
@NathanAndJohnny hah i wish you were emo....go fuckin kill yourself retard. i don't have words to describe your lack of intelligence with regards to music. simple plan isn't music. its a paycheck and a quick easy way to get quick easy pussy.
@NathanAndJohnny you are gay and a fag if you like those bands, they are for chicks who cut themselves and are not real emo. real emo is this, the 90's work of art that is sunny day real estate and bands like them
Rising Tide is an album I cane, day in day out, after all these years. One of my all time greats. Yey! they're back together. Oh... no UK dates, never saw them back in the day... fuck!
They didn't play anything off the Rising Tide when I saw them, so you wouldn't have missed this song. Mostly LP2 and Diary, with "Guitars and Video Games" thrown in.
@alphaguitar2 i don't know who you're talking about, or you're opinion on this person, but I know Hayley Williams listens to these people, and she's like my idol. even though i'm a dude. y'know what i mean :P
@ElricoKing i was talking about three days grace, someone said that sunny day was a huge influence to them, and that band exploits alt rock for money and so i really can't see the influence at all
i could see VAGUELY how paramore would have been influenced by SDRE but i think they've perverted their own music and cheated themselves out of self expressive art by selling out
thankfully there are bands like SDRE that can remain a strong influence to everyone and never give in to that temptation
@alphaguitar2 Not that I could even name a Three Days Grace song, but wasn't there first album a major label release? How can you sell out when you are automatically mainstream. And as for Paramore...I don't know about venues nationwide, but here in Boston SCRE plays the same sized venues as Paramore. I wouldn't consider Paramore to be a sell out band at all. Successful yes, naturally progressing through a deserved success, yes.
Wow, thanks everybody for the comments. I love the fact that I'm not the only SDRE fan left on the planet. I read an article from Jeremy explaining the emphasis of the concert will be on the first two albums. I'm now hesitating driving up as my dream concert would involve the material from How It Feels to Be Something On and The Rising Tide (2 classic albums in my eyes).
How do you all feel about the set list for the concert?
well.. at first it was Daron's and John's side project, but shen SOAD ended, it was their main project.. but it's over again..
well the guitarist in SDRA looks kinda like their bassist Dominic.. and when SDRE didn't play, he could be in SoB.. but.. i guess it is not really him.. now, when i am sober i say i was mistaken 4 days before
I refer to SDRE style to be compared to dream pop. Long live Robin Guthrie

Man I was so little when these guys were just getting in their groove and what an impact they make... I think they're one of the most unique bands ever especially his voice it's honestly beautiful sooo much power too bad they brokeup and are kinda forgotten and lost in the pages of Rock n roll Like the youth today my generation is just dead in the image of yesterdays pieces it's an image to sell and everyones buying everythings becoming the same were sooo fucking dead...

I love this song...The vocals are just great..
I deeply enjoy when the full power of the guitar kicks in after the slow melodic parts.
And of course I love how deep the lyrics are...
The 90s was a time of great music.Wish that musical flow of ingenuity could've lasted until my generation(and longer than that too)...But,alas I can always listen to the great treasures of the past..

Phenomenal video. SDRE is one of my all-time favorites and highly overlooked and underrated. Their music is no doubt standing the test of time, as they sound just as fresh and original now as they did almost twenty years ago.

Is music "emo" if it really reflects one of our problems in society, in which I mean, seriously scarring reality?

@venusfly9108 Enigk found Jesus, so most of his lyrics are Biblical.
DarthKazi 1 year ago
@DarthKazi I know, but whether or not they are biblical, they seem almost true. This came to mind because I've read some essays once in highschool about drugs and substance abuse, and a lot of these lyrics seem related in some ways to I've read. The lyric ♫Crooked deals can make you wealthy♫ itself just reminds me of it.

They didn't play anything off the Rising Tide when I saw them, so you wouldn't have missed this song. Mostly LP2 and Diary, with "Guitars and Video Games" thrown in.

When I heard about the reunion tour middle of August, my two nearest venues were sold out. In telling people about this fact, they'd say "Who?"
Exactly... so why are they sold out? Because they are that good.

ElricoKing 1 year ago
@ElricoKing i was talking about three days grace, someone said that sunny day was a huge influence to them, and that band exploits alt rock for money and so i really can't see the influence at all
i could see VAGUELY how paramore would have been influenced by SDRE but i think they've perverted their own music and cheated themselves out of self expressive art by selling out
thankfully there are bands like SDRE that can remain a strong influence to everyone and never give in to that temptation

alphaguitar2 1 year ago
@alphaguitar2 Not that I could even name a Three Days Grace song, but wasn't there first album a major label release? How can you sell out when you are automatically mainstream. And as for Paramore...I don't know about venues nationwide, but here in Boston SCRE plays the same sized venues as Paramore. I wouldn't consider Paramore to be a sell out band at all. Successful yes, naturally progressing through a deserved success, yes.

Wow, thanks everybody for the comments. I love the fact that I'm not the only SDRE fan left on the planet. I read an article from Jeremy explaining the emphasis of the concert will be on the first two albums. I'm now hesitating driving up as my dream concert would involve the material from How It Feels to Be Something On and The Rising Tide (2 classic albums in my eyes).
How do you all feel about the set list for the concert?
Keeping the feeling alive is something wonderful.

well the guitarist in SDRA looks kinda like their bassist Dominic.. and when SDRE didn't play, he could be in SoB.. but.. i guess it is not really him.. now, when i am sober i say i was mistaken 4 days before
