''Sound the Alarm'' is part one of a three part concept Chris Conley stated in an interview with Punknews.org. - Wikipedia
"This song will become the anthem of your under-grooooooound!" Remember that one? Jeez, were you watching TRL in 2001 or what? Okay, so Chris Conley didnt quite become emos Elvis (labelmate Chris Carrabba handled that), but STDs hyper-personal diary ditties at least had (and have) some bounce. It wasn't too long ago that Chris Carrabba was to Bryan Adams as Conor Oberst was to Bob Dylan, and these guys were to Journey as Desaparecidos were to the Clash. Yeah, the emo bubble sure did burst. But STD (unfortunate acronym if there ever was one) have maintained their pop sensibilities, which will make many young ladies happy.
