Four Year Strong Announces 9/18/07 Release Date for Debut Album, Rise Or Die Trying, on I Surrender Records – Tour Dates Announced With From First To Last!
Hailing from Worcester, Massachusetts, Four Year Strong blend catchy pop guitars and chugging breakdowns bringing to mind bands like New Found Glory and Lifetime while adding elements of hardcore influenced by Set Your Goals, He Is Legend and Gorilla Biscuits. With synthesizer overlay as a finishing touch to their trademark pop-core sound, Four Year Strong truly carved their own niche in the genre.
Since their formation in 2003, Four Year Strong has self-released two EP’s and has consistently been present in the Smartpunk.com Top 100 sales list and Purevolume charts. Four Year Strong’s rapidly growing fan base, fresh sound, and unbelievable live show impressed I Surrender Records (Rob Hitt of Midtown) and the smart label signed FYS almost immediately.
Now, with over 450k plays on MySpace alone, Four Year Strong is ready to unleash their debut album to the masses. Four Year Strong ‘Rise Or Die Trying’ will hit shelves nationwide on September 18th and initial feedback on the album is incredible. Be sure to check out the new track “Heroes Get Remembered, Legends Never Die” now at their Official Myspace.
