I Don't Think It Is is the seventh full-length studio album by American rock band Say Anything.
On February 2, 2016, frontman Max Bemis sent out a message stating "You know what? We're gonna stream our whole new record and drop it on Friday. Enjoy. #IDontThinkItIs.[2] " The album was then available to be streamed through the Equal Vision Records YouTube channel. On February 5, the album was released to digital music retailers and other streaming services.[3] In April and May 2017, the group went on co-headlining US tour with Bayside with support from Reggie and the Full Effect and Hot Rod Circuit.[4] To promote the tour, Say Anything covered Bayside's "They're Not Horses, They're Unicorns", while Bayside covered Say Anything's "Night's Songs".[5]
I Don't Think It Is was met with polarizing reception from critics and fans alike. Sputnikmusic staff gave the album 3.5 out of 5, elaborating that while the album was "not as initially rewarding as his typical work, the constant energy mixed with the ‘rough around the edges’ approach will keep you coming back for more. In a way, Say Anything's latest surprise release is more compelling for what it represents than the actual music it contains." New Noise Magazine awarded the album 4.5 out of 5 stars, writing that the band's "grinding honesty and gritty passion bring to mind the days of …Is a Real Boy, but with more feedback and writing maturity."
All songs recorded by Say Anything.
