It has been a long time coming, but Saves the Day are back.
Forerunners of the US indie rock scene since their inception 1997, Saves the Day are one of the few that have survived the test of time and a genre that they defined - to be able to continue to release great records 14 years on.
Set for an Autumn release, Daybreak, which will be the bands seventh studio album, is a fitting title for Saves the Day’s up and coming record. The third part of a trilogy that began with 2006’s Sound the Alarm and continued with Under the Boards in 2007. “Sound the Alarm is an expression of discontent. Under the Boards is reflection and remorse. Daybreak is acceptance,” explains singer-guitarist and chief songwriter Chris Conley. “Daybreak wraps up the challenges we wrote about on the previous two albums and transcends the pain those songs were about by facing the fear and angst that comes in this life and tiring it into growth and positive change.”
Fast-forward to 2011, and Saves The Day is evolving once again. After a line-up change (the new line up is Christopher Conley, Arun Bali, Rodrigo Palma, and Claudio Rivera), Saves The Day hit the road rocking all their classic tunes with a brand new look. As Conley explains, “it makes sense that Daybreak features a new lineup, as thematically the album deals with coming back to Life with a renewed appreciation and attitude of perseverance and acceptance.”
Now, with the band ready to release the long-anticipated third part to the trilogy, you get the feeling that a new day is truly breaking for Saves the Day - and Conley agrees. “Daybreak is both an ending and a new beginning. Daybreak comes back to Life to say, ‘we are here together and we can make it through.”
You can hear more from Conley in the video embedded below.
Saves the Day will be playing the following three dates, before heading back to the States for a co-headlining tour with The Get Up Kids.
April 23rd Groezrock Festival, Meerhour, BE
April 24th Columbiahalle, Berlin
April 26th Electric Ballroom, London
