Perhaps you could attempt to use metrics like ticket sales or song charting, but certainly not in any tangible sense of emotion, delivery, or downright weirdness. Say Anything kicked the doors down when they entered the scene with a huge “Fuck You” to any preconceived notion of what a “punk” or “emo” band should be.

The band unleashed their brand-new single and accompanying music for “Chaotic.” This marks their first release since 2023’s collab with GARZI, “GrowingUp.” and “Misery” featuring Atreyu. “‘Chaotic’ embodies the visceral urge to stir chaos in our lives as a desperate attempt to drown out the pain of reality,” frontman Matty Mullins explains. “I think I crave chaotic/I don’t taste the pain when I stay neurotic/So why would I want to change,” sings Mullins over trashing guitar tones and ahead of guttural, hard-hitting breakdown.
