Warning: Strong Opinions Contained In This Episode
 
After bursting onto the scene with their platinum-selling record "Page Avenue," Story of the Year has continued to be a rock band that carves out its own space to exist in. Are they metal? Emo? Hardcore? Post-hardcore? Radio rock? All of the above?
This was Andrew's choice and his favorite discography we've covered (so far). Derek also had a great time listening to this discography (which he was completely unfamiliar with). Jake...well...
 
Go listen to their latest record "Tear Me To Pieces" on Sharptone Records...it's fantastic!

Andrew, Jake, and Derek are best friends who have played in bands since their youth, coming up in the era of “emo” before it was a cool term, before it was even embraced by the bands now basking in its seeming revival. Now as young dads, they still write music and are always sharing music with each other, new and old. This podcast is a deep dive back into the discographies of 2000s emo bands, conversations with some of the artists and key players in the scene, what it means to be in a band and craft music, and how fatherhood plays into it all. Let’s go!
