One of the few albums this high on the list that I found after high school. This album meant absolutely nothing to me first few times I heard it, and I have no idea how. I gave it a try again my senior year of college and it consumed me. It was so thrilling to listen to something so juvenile and sincere. I feel like it made me aware of how much life I still have in myself, if that makes sense. There are thoughts in my brain that I'm not entertaining but I easily could if I just sat with myself without being afraid of what might happen. That's the charm to Say Anything, they live up to their name. Max is not worried about how his thoughts might affect how he is perceived. In fact he addresses that specifically on "Every Man Has A Molly" how he might be upset about the result of being so vocal but that is not going to stop him from doing it. Lyrically the record takes massive swings that would not work if it wasn't for the music meeting the lyrics at the manic, passionate level they demand. And the arrangements always perfectly swell into different layers of chaos that keep any song from feeling stale or repetitive. And any repetition (Wow I Can Get Sexual) is entirely intentional to match the complementation of the lyrics. The highlight of the record for me is the duology from "Glory" to "Yellow Cat". Sweeping from an anthem of unapologetic, passionate love in a concentration camp inspired by his grandparents, into a depressive, confused portrait of aimless 20 somethings living in the 21st century.
