Taken from ap.net: “Say Anything has begun writing new material for their next full length, which is tentatively titled … In Defense of the Genre and is scheduled for release in early 2007. According to Max, “It’s going to be a lot more about what happens once you’ve gained an identity, rather than searching for one, which is what the last record was about. This one’s about knowing who you are and how to love with it.” He also added that the record is about “being confident in yourself, but it’s also more about people and personal relationships. A lot of the past record is all about me and my problems. This one will be about observations of other people.””
