We’re joined by Dave from the legendary Chicago Punk band Two Houses to throw a brick through the Overton Window to discuss the legendary “Real Emo” band Sunny Day Real Estate.

Sunny Day are a necessary part of any conversation about the Emo genre. Their debut record Diary (1994) is arguably THE time capsule Emo record; completely essential for anyone looking to explore the genre. What’s great about SDRE, though, is that their entire discography is diverse, interesting, and – most importantly – very good.

We go around the horn and air our respective hot takes on this storied catalog of records, with an emphasis on selling our ideas to each other, and to you.

What’s your favorite Sunny Day record gonna be?
