“Page Avenue is such a special album in so many ways,” reflects vocalist Dan Marsala. “It has grown to be the definitive SOTY album. An album that stills resonates with everyone today the way it did 20 years ago. An album that built an amazing career for a bunch of friends from St. Louis. When we were writing Page Avenue, we were just kids making music that we loved. We had no idea that 20 years later these songs would still mean so much to us and to millions of other people all around the world.”
“Page Avenue was the soundtrack to so many people’s lives,” says guitarist Ryan Phillips. “We can’t think of a better way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of this pivotal record by getting out there and performing it for all of our incredible fans.”
Originally released in 2003, Page Avenue was one of the first of its kind to sell a million copies. Featuring iconic tracks like “Until The Day I Die,” “Anthem of Our Dying Day,” “Sidewalks,” and more, the album peaked at number 1 and number 51 on the Billboard US Heatseekers Albums and Billboard 200 chart respectively. It was certified Gold in April 2004 and then Platinum in March 2021, making it one of the first post-hardcore albums to reach either milestone. “Until The Day I Die” peaked at #12 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart and #35 on the Active Rock chart, and “Anthem Of Our Dying Day” reached #10 on the US Modern Rock Tracks chart.
Story of the Year recently released their long-awaited sixth studio album Tear Me To Pieces. The LP arrived back on March 10 via SharpTone Records. It features eleven new tracks – including previous singles “Real Life,” “Tear Me To Pieces,” “Take The Ride,” “War,” and “2005.” It is their first new studio effort since 2017’s Wolves.
