Hey there. As far as the Engik/Christianity stuff you should go check out
sunnydayrealestate.com and read the band history stuff and its links. I've
attached a good file of FAQs to start you out. As far as other bands with
the same emotional intensity and style (i guess emo ia as good a word as
any), I'd heartily recommend Mineral, Christie Front Drive, Promise
Ring(earlier stuff), Cap'n Jazz, Get Up Kids (earlier stuff), At The Drive
In, Fugazi, and Rainer Maria for a start. These are all bands other Sunny
Day fans I've known have liked almost immediately when they first heard them
(this includes me, of course). Well, good luck, and enjoy.

Subject: [sdre-l]: uh, hi?
i'm thea. to tell you all the truth i have no clue how i ended up on this
list, but hey, that's cool...
i'm feeling like i have to confess all this stuff, like that i don't
really
no all that much about sdre except that i love them. i've never been much
of a fan of anything so it's pretty wierd to be involved in this type of
thing. obviously i'm having issues...
okay, so i can't even figure out exactly what emo is or if sunny day real
estate truly fits into that genre. what i would really love is if you
people out there would tell me about some bands that may have the same
sort
of sound, the same rawness, passion, y'know. that would be great.
also, what is this about jeremy being hardcore born again christian? for
some reason that freaks me out. it's totally none of my business, but if
someone doesn't mind i would like to know more of the story.
thanx a bunch
you all are peaches
always thea
