Sunny Day Real Estate to record new album in May; get ready to dry your adolescent emo tears and start crying adult "sophisticated melodic rock" tears!

The housing market must be officially back on track, because Sunny Day Real Estate are back in business! (Okay, okay, lazy joke; let’s just move on…) 2009 already saw the emo-rock pioneers reuniting for a tour and reissue campaign, but as Ear Candy recently reported, KEXP radio DJ Marco Collins recently upped the ante for 2010 with a late-night tweet of his twitter:

Great news today. Just got an email from Nate [Mendel] from Sunny Day Real Estate/Foo Fighters… SDRE is recording A NEW RECORD IN MAY!!

So, unless Collins was referring to May of some other year entirely, the world may very well see what would amount to only the fifth studio album by the seminal Seattle foursome in nearly 20 years by the close of 2010. Not to mention their first record with all four original members in 12 of those years! Hey, and remember how BAD those last few records were??? Wow, ME NEITHER!!! Ah, the magic of nostalgia. You’re on deck, Promise Ring.
