Senses Fail have been called any number of things across their near 25 years as a band–emo, screamo,post-hardcore, metalcore, pop punk. It’s testament to the band’s perpetual evolution as much as it istheir steely endurance–a quality which frontman Buddy Nielsen has required bottomless reserves ofalong the ride. It’s through the songs of Senses Fail that Nielsen has forever made sense of and peacewith life’s highs and lows; a journey that began in the leafy suburbs of Ridgewood, New Jersey with theiconic Gold-selling debut albumLet It Enfold You,and which has since seen Senses Fail become one ofrock music’s most cherished, celebrated names.

What’s the sound of Story Of The Year? Loud guitars, massive singalong choruses, and uplifting perseverance. Few records helped build the post-hardcore scene as swiftly as the band’s debut, Page Avenue, one of the first of its kind to sell a million copies. “Until the Day I Die” endures as both an anthem and mission statement. Tours with Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance,Deftones, and The Used cemented Story Of The Year’s reputation as a stunning and engaging live act. The connection between the band and audience transformed Story Of The Year from teenagers working in a St. Louis pizza chain franchise into hard rock headliners. Fans grew together with Dan Marsala, Ryan Philips, Josh Wills, and Adam Russell, from Page Avenue (2003), In the Wake of Determination (2005), The Black Swan (2008), The Constant (2010), Wolves (2017), to Tear Me to Pieces (2022). They specialize in intense, passionate, confessional compositions that inspire and empower. Songs like “The Antidote,” “Real Life,” “Miracle,” “The Ghost of You and I,” “Anthem of Our Dying Day,” and “Take Me Back” resonate with anyone determined to triumph over adversity. Until the day I die, indeed.
