Sunny Day Real Estate

In a bit of the coolest news I’ve heard in a long time, the rumors of a Sunny Day Real Estate reunion were finally confirmed today with the announcement of a tour featuring all the original band members coming this fall!  I made mention of a possible SDRE reunion a few weeks ago in my little blurb about Jeremy Enigk’s new album, but this is pretty much the best Enigk/SDRE post I could ever hope to make.  It sounds like they’ll be mainly playing songs from Diary and LP2 which each will also be re-issued by Sub Pop Records on September 15th to celebrate the reunion.  Whether you call them emo, indie, or whatever, (they’re emo by the way, like it or not) there’s no denying that Diary was one of the most influential and defining albums of the 90’s and is easily one of my favorite albums of all time.  Click here for the news article complete with tour dates.  You can go ahead and count me in for that October 3rd Atlanta show.
