Burning Up With DAN MARSALA From STORY OF THE YEAR

U.S rock/metal outfit Story Of The Year exploded onto the scene with their groundbreaking debut Page Avenue, one of the first albums of its kind to sell over a million copies.

From Page Avenue (2003) to In the Wake of Determination (2005), The Black Swan (2008), The Constant (2010), Wolves (2017), and Tear Me to Pieces (2023) the band, comprised of Dan Marsala, Ryan Phillips, Josh Wills, and Adam Russell, has delivered a signature blend of melodic aggression, raw vulnerability, and anthems built to scream along to in the dark.
And, fans will be pleased to confirm, Story Of The Year are back bigger and better with A.R.S.O.N., marking the next evolution of the band's signature sound and raw, personal lyricism - elements that have earned the band a dedicated global following.
