Review

"Page Avenue," the debut heart-stopper from Story of the Year, dropped in 2003, and it’s a fiery cocktail of post-hardcore adrenaline and pop-punk charm. Picture this: aggressive riffs and pounding drums that hit you like a freight train, yet still making you want to sing along at the top of your lungs—thanks to producer John Feldmann's wizardry.

With anthems like "Until the Day I Die" and "Anthem of Our Dying Day," the band nails the balance between gut-wrenching intensity and catchy choruses. The title track, "Page Avenue," dives into deeper, introspective waters, proving these guys aren’t just about raw power—they've got emotional depth too. Influences from the golden era of early 2000s post-hardcore and pop-punk are dripping all over this record, echoing vibes from legends like Thrice and Finch. Feldmann's slick production polishes it up without dulling the edge—a fine line walked perfectly. "Page Avenue" is a testament to Story of the Year's promise and a solid foundation for their future riot. - Sydney
