Stay What You Are, the third album from Princeton, New Jersey's Saves the Day, came out on Vagrant on July 10, 2001, with Rob Schnapf producing. Chris Conley sings, backed by guitarists David Soloway and Ted Alexander, bassist Eben D'Amico and drummer Bryan Newman, and the record is pop-punk with an indie-rock brain and an emo heart, Conley's anxious, confessional voice right up front.
Critics liked it at the time, and it has lasted as an influential record in emo and pop punk. "At Your Funeral" and "Freakish" became MTV2 hits, the former charting in the UK as well, and with 200,000 copies sold it carried the band to a major-label deal with DreamWorks for the follow-up, In Reverie.
