Say Anything is another of the 2000s bands that were almost entirely ignored by indie music critics, though I still maintain that if 2004’s …Is a Real Boy and all of the earlier material leading up to it (that they reissued as All My Friends Are Enemies: Early Rarities last year) had come out during the #emorevival, it’d be treated far more nicely. Max Bemis & co. just announced that they’ll release a new album, Hebrews, via Equal Vision this year (6/10), but Say Anything haven’t ever really put out a great followup to …Is a Real Boy, so #emorevival or not, their time to shine just might be behind them.

To further the Say Anything/#emorevival discussion, the band has just announced a tour which features support from The Front Bottoms, The So So Glos, and You Blew It!, three bands that have definitely crossed over to indie rock fans/critics lately, and who we are definitely currently fans of. Not to mention none of these bands are wildly different from Say Anything. (Okay, well The So So Glos don’t fall under the “emo” umbrella, but they’re at least “pop punk” and did just open for Brand New and now this, so…)

The tour hits NYC on June 28 at Best Buy Theater and also includes nearby stops in Philly, NJ, Connecticut and upstate NY. Tickets for the NYC show go on sale Thursday, April 3 at noon. All dates are listed, with some streams/videos, below…

Say Anything – “Baseball But Better”

Say Anything – “Belt”

The Front Bottoms – “Twin Size Mattress”

The So So Glos – “Throw Your Hands Up”

You Blew It! – “House Address”
