Episode 165: Sunny Day Real Estate

This week we're discussing every album by Sunny Day Real Estate. While they were a massive part of establishing emo as a genre in the mid to late 90s, you'd be a fool to dismiss these guys as just another emo band. Sunny Day has more in common with post-hardcore than with what we consider emo. Leave any biases at the door because this band rules.

Closing track: "Pillars" from How It Feels to Be Something On (1998)
