Story Of The Year have premiered a new video for their song “Afterglow.” This track is from the band’s newly released album “Tear Me To Pieces.” Dan Marsala commented:
“’Afterglow’ is one of the most meaningful songs on the record for me. It’s basically a letter to my kids. It’s a song about how no matter how dark things might get, they will always be my light. They are the ‘perfect afterglow.’ The line ‘I can barely feel the pain when I’m staring at you’ was one of the first lines written for the record. It kind of set the tone for how personal I wanted the lyrics to be on this record. I’m still one of the most meaningful and deepest lyrics I’ve ever written.”
Story Of The Year have premiered a new video for their new song “2005.” This track is from the band’s new album “Tear Me To Pieces,” which will be released on March 10. Vocalist Dan Marsala commented:
“2005 is a journey into the heart of Story Of The Year. It’s a story about youth and falling in love with music. It’s a reminder of how far we’ve come as a band and how lucky I am to still be playing music with my best friends. This song makes me excited for the future of SOTY.”
Story Of The Year have premiered a new video for their new song “War.” This track is from the band’s new album “Tear Me To Pieces,” which will be released on March 10. Guitarist Ryan Phillips commented:
“’War’ is about a person hellbent on getting revenge and ultimately finding no peace in the process. Lyrics like ‘this game will kill you in your sleep’ directly refers to the mental toll of trying to get revenge on another person: it winds up consuming you and ultimately destroys any your life and any chance of a present, balanced existence.”
Story Of The Year have premiered a new song titled “Take The Ride.” This track is from the band’s new album “Tear Me To Pieces,” which will be released on March 10. Guitarist Ryan Phillips commented:
“In the end, ‘Take the Ride’ is a song about surrendering to what life dealt you and embracing the chaos instead of fighting it. The song captures the spirit of finding freedom through a reckless adventure, even if it’s internal.”
Story Of The Year have premiered a new video for the title track of their new album “Tear Me To Pieces.” That effort will be released on March 10.
Guitarist Ryan Phillips said the following about the song:
“Perhaps more than any song on the record, ‘Tear Me To Pieces’ checks all of the boxes in regards to what best defines Story Of The Year — anthemic pop choruses balanced with guttural screams, high-energy punk rock-inspired drums, dark-ish lyrics, and aggressive guitar riffs. This one song runs the gamut.”
Vocalist Dan Marsala continued:
“This song fully represents the lyrical and musical vibe of the entire album. That’s why we chose it to be the opening track and album title as well. ‘Tear Me To Pieces’ puts you in the right mindset to hear the best record Story Of The Year has recorded in a long time.”
Phillips also added the following about the album:
“I think this album will be a defining moment in our career. When our fans hear it, they’ll be, like, ‘Oh, shit, these dudes are ready to go!’ This is the sound of a band putting everything into it. If a new band came out with this album, I’d be texting everyone in my band about it.”
