This Princeton, N.J., band got together when its members were 13, signed a label deal while still in high school, and went on to sell thousands of records, tour with Blink-182and Weezer, and land songs on the playlist of Los Angeles’ KROQ. Saves the Day’s new album, SOUND THE ALARM was released April 11, 2006 on Vagrant Records. Saves The Day’s album, In Reverie (released Sept. 16, 2003, on DreamWorks Records), finds their creativity in full flower. Singer-songwriter-guitarist Chris Conley’s lacerating, frequently existential lyrics provide sharp counterpoint to his sweet melodic sensibility as the band exercises their penchant for a variety of rock, punk and pop hooks.

Jessie & My Whetstone Lyrics
Saves The Day
To me, the only thing left after a while was that night we watched documentaries up through morning and then you kicked me out.
You opened up your screen door and threw me off the porch.
It was summer then and i drove home whistling muddy waters down the pike.
And that was that: our one sweet night together.
Under highway signs i watched our love start fluttering and dissipating.
I counted all the headlights to make sure i was all right.
Now i'm wondering is it me or is it me that can't see silver linings?
So i fucked it up. i watched you go.
I saw my hand not dialing the phone.
All i'm left to do is remember the dull room we sat in blue stream light watching the strike of '59.
I dreamed of wrecking my underwear.
Oh can't i touch your cheeks somewhere under dirt filled rainy nights with my socks stuck in the mud?
Please come dive in puddles with me.
