Formation and early releases (2001–2006)

[edit]

Four Year Strong was formed in Worcester, Massachusetts, in 2001 by Dan O'Connor, Alan Day, Jake Massucco and a fourth musician who played bass guitar. They all attended Doherty Memorial High School.[2] Soon, they released a demo EP titled All The Lonely Girls. In the subsequent years, they released two more EPs; The Glory EP (2003) and a three track demo in 2004. Around this time, Joe Weiss was brought in as a replacement bassist.[2] In 2005 the band released their first studio album, It's Our Time, digitally on Open Your Eyes Records. They went on a West Coast and Midwest tour with Maida and the Fully Down in October and November 2005.[3] They went on a tour with Showoff in March and April 2006.[4]

The band released another demo in 2006, which contained early versions of their songs from Rise or Die Trying. Keyboardist Josh Lyford joined in late 2006 to make the band a five-piece.[2]

Rise or Die Trying, Explains It All (2006–2009)

[edit]

The band's 2007 release Rise or Die Trying with I Surrender Records peaked at number 31 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart in its debut week.[5] On the back of their increasing popularity, the band was signed to Decaydance Records in February 2008.[6]

On July 21, 2009, Four Year Strong released a covers album, titled Explains It All. The album features guest appearances from Keith Buckley of Every Time I Die, Travie McCoy of Gym Class Heroes, and JR and Buddy of Less Than Jake.[7] The band explained their reasoning behind the album in a MySpace blog, saying "It's what we grew up listening to. Everyone has those songs that instantly transport you back to when you were younger. Whether we were in our bedrooms playing air guitar, or riding in the car to little league practice, or it was just that song that was all over the radio during that awesome summer at the Cape. These songs have impacted us in some way and we want to share that feeling with you."[8]

Enemy of the World (2010–2011)

[edit]

The band's third full-length album, Enemy of the World, was released on March 9, 2010, with Universal Motown Records. The band released the album's first single, "It Must Really Suck to Be Four Year Strong Right Now", on December 21, 2009. The name of the song is a reference to the final sentence of a review in Alternative Press in which the magazine praised Set Your Goals' new album while remarking on the future of Four Year Strong and how their record would compare. The vinyl record was made available to pre-order on March 2, 2010. The album sold 12,400 copies in its first week, debuting at number 47 on the Billboard 200. Four Year Strong has accompanied Set Your Goals in an Asian tour, but both canceled touring in Indonesia.

In Some Way, Shape, or Form and hiatus (2011–2013)

[edit]

On April 3, 2011, it was announced that Josh Lyford would be leaving the band. Initially, it was implied that Lyford had chosen to leave in order to focus on his side project, Foxfires. However, it was later confirmed by both Lyford and Alan Day that Lyford had been ejected from the band, as the musicians had elected to remove synthesizers from their sound, leaving no room for Lyford to continue. On April 13, 2011, in an interview with Alternative Press, the band revealed that they had been in the middle of recording their fourth studio album with producer David Bendeth in New Jersey's House of Loud. The band was set to return to the studio, without Josh Lyford, to finish the album in June, after they finished touring with Rise Against.[9] Vocalist Alan Day also revealed that the new songs the band had written were very diverse, and that the new material was different from anything the band had ever written before. While touring with Rise Against, they played a newly recorded, yet unreleased, song called "Falling on You".

On August 18, 2011, the band released "Stuck in the Middle", a new song from the upcoming album. The band announced that the new album, In Some Way, Shape, or Form, would be released on November 8, 2011.[10] On September 8, 2011, the band released another song from the album, titled "Falling on You".[11] The first official single from the album, "Just Drive", was released on September 27, 2011.[12] During the Fall 2011 AP Tour, the band played another new unreleased song to be released on the upcoming album. The band dedicated it to fans who have been there "from the very beginning, and will be there till the very end"; a video of the song has been leaked on YouTube. It is called "Fairweather Fan". In an interview, it was revealed that Four Year Strong would be playing the Warped Tour 2012.

As of May 15, 2012, Four Year Strong parted ways with their label Universal Motown/Universal Republic.[13] Regardless of the departure of the label, the band is still active as they played at the 2012 Warped Tour, and they performed with Blink-182 on their UK and Ireland tour. As of 2013, rumors have speculated if Four Year Strong had broken up. O'Connor had been married to his wife for almost two years, and Day started his side project The Here and Now, an alternative/blues group who released an EP of music that year. When interviewed by PropertyOfZack, Day mentioned that the band isn't breaking up but rather taking time off. Going further, he said, "This is the first time in five years or more that we've taken more than three weeks off on tour...We're definitely not breaking up. It seems like a lot of people are saying that, but I don't know why they're saying that. Just because we haven't come through your city three times this year doesn't mean we're broken up."[14]

Signing to Pure Noise Records, Go Down in History EP and Self-titled album (2014–2016)

They kick off their Go Down in History tour on November 1, 2014, accompanied by Transit, Such Gold, and Seaway.

The band's self-titled album was released on June 2, 2015. The album was produced by Converge guitarist Kurt Ballou. Vocalist/guitarist Dan O' Connor stated that the album was "one of the most raw records we've ever made, it's just us playing. No fancy computer shit. Made for singing along and head banging.".[16]

On April 9, 2015, they released a single titled "We All Float Down Here", followed by "I'm a Big, Bright, Shining Star" and "Eating My Words" on April 27 and May 13, respectively.

Musical style

[edit]

The band simply developed their sound off the idea of playing 'exactly what they want to hear' or music that they would listen to, but no one else was playing at the time.[32] The band's sound has been described as a "combination of pop-punk energy, uplifting singalong choruses, and metalcore flourishes".[33] with "assertive and (relatively speaking) intricate guitar lines and riffs".[34] This fusion between pop punk and metalcore has been often labeled as "easycore", a style the band is considered to have popularized alongside New Found Glory.[35]

Enemy of the World era (2010–2011)

Four Year Strong released their fourth studio album, , on March 9, 2010, through the Decaydance imprint of . The record marked a polished evolution in the band's sound, emphasizing their dual-vocalist approach with guitarists Alan Day and Dan O'Connor trading leads and harmonies across tracks, which created dynamic interplay between melodic hooks and heavier breakdowns.

Following the success of their previous album, Four Year Strong released their fifth studio album, In Some Way, Shape, or Form, on November 8, 2011, through Decaydance and Universal Republic Records. The record, produced by , marked a notable stylistic for the band, incorporating heavier rock influences with reduced synth elements after the departure of keyboardist Josh Lyford earlier that year, aiming for a more mature and radio-accessible sound that blended hooks with textures reminiscent of and . However, this shift drew criticism for diluting the band's signature energetic easycore style, with fewer breakdowns and anthemic choruses in favor of streamlined, melody-driven tracks. On May 15, 2012, the band parted ways with their label amid ongoing creative frustrations, effectively ending their major-label era without a self-release of the album as initially planned. The album received mixed reviews, praised by some for its accessible hooks and mature songwriting but lambasted by others for straying too far from the band's roots, resulting in a loss of their high-energy identity. Critics noted that tracks like the "Just Drive" exemplified the pivot toward moody alt-rock, while songs such as "Unbreakable" and "Stuck in the Middle" attempted to retain fan-favorite elements but often felt predictable and overproduced.

Fans expressed disappointment and confusion during this time, with many voicing frustration over the album's direction on forums and reviews, leading to a sense of abandonment as shows became sporadic and communication ceased. The break fostered a loyal but concerned fanbase, who speculated about the band's future while appreciating the opportunity for the members to address their exhaustion.

Return to Pure Noise Records (2014–2016)

Following a hiatus after their 2011 album In Some Way, Shape, or Form, Four Year Strong signaled their return by announcing new material during their annual holiday show in , in December 2013. In May 2014, the band officially signed with independent label Pure Noise Records, a move that provided stability and aligned with their ethos after previous major-label experiences.

The five-track effort, featuring songs like "Living Proof of a Stubborn " and the title track, showcased a return to their signature blend of high-energy and hardcore aggression, recapturing the intensity of their earlier work. Critics praised the EP for its explosive riffs, dual vocals, and relentless pace, positioning it as a strong reintroduction that revitalized their presence in the scene. Building on the EP's momentum, Four Year Strong issued their self-titled sixth studio on June 2, 2015, again through Pure Noise. The record included singles such as "We All Float Down Here," released in April 2015, which highlighted their thematic depth with references to horror elements alongside catchy, anthemic hooks. Unlike the polarizing shift toward a cleaner sound on their prior , this self-titled release was lauded for its heavier production, intricate songwriting, and return to dynamic easycore elements, earning acclaim as their strongest effort to date. The period's smaller-scale promotions, including a main stage slot on the 2014 Vans Warped Tour, fostered renewed fanbase growth by reconnecting with core audiences through intimate venues and grassroots efforts. This approach helped expand their following organically, as the band's consistent touring and indie-backed output drew in both longtime supporters and new listeners appreciative of their unpolished energy.

This ongoing activity underscores the band's enduring presence in the scene, fostering fan engagement through live performances that emphasize their dynamic stage presence.

Touring and live performances

Headlining and support tours

Four Year Strong has undertaken several notable headlining tours throughout their career, often featuring high-energy performances with elaborate and to match their and hardcore-infused sound. In late 2010, the band headlined the Swing Set Tour across , supported by Comeback Kid, , American Fangs, and Mountain Man, playing to packed venues and emphasizing crowd participation through mosh pits and sing-alongs to tracks from Explains It All. The following year, they topped the bill on the Fall 2011 AP Tour, joined by , , The Swellers, and Sharks, where full production elements like synchronized lights and confetti cannons amplified the chaotic energy of songs such as "It Must Really Suck to Be Four Year Strong Right Now," allowing for extended sets averaging and direct fan engagement via stage dives. In 2015, coinciding with the release of their self-titled album, Four Year Strong headlined the Pure Noise Records Tour in the UK, with direct support from Hit the Lights, Forever Came Calling, and Light You Up on select dates. This run showcased a more polished stage setup, including backdrops referencing the album's themes of resilience and custom LED screens displaying lyrics for audience involvement, contrasting their earlier raw club shows by incorporating choreographed breakdowns that encouraged unified crowd chants during anthems like "Go Down in History." Headlining allowed the band to curate setlists blending new material with classics, fostering deeper fan connections through post-show meet-and-greets and acoustic interludes not feasible in opening slots. As supporting acts, Four Year Strong has frequently opened for prominent pop-punk peers, delivering concise 30- to 40-minute sets focused on high-impact openers to energize venues without full production rigs. They joined All Time Low on the 2008 AP Tour as part of a rotating lineup including Forever the Sickest Kids, building early buzz through energetic renditions of Rise or Die Trying tracks amid shared stage banter. The band has supported All Time Low on multiple occasions over the years, including co-billed runs that highlighted their complementary styles and mutual fanbases. In 2023, they opened for Fall Out Boy on select dates of the So Much For (Tour) Dust tour at massive venues like Fenway Park, where limited stage access meant relying on raw vocal interplay with the crowd rather than elaborate visuals, yet still inciting mosh pits for staples like "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)." The band's ongoing Fall 2025 support slot on All Time Low's Everyone's Talking! Tour, alongside and , spans over 30 North American dates starting in October, promoting their recent single "Whiplash" within a shared bill at arenas and amphitheaters. Setlist highlights include openers like "It Must Really Suck to Be Four Year Strong Right Now" and "Uncooked" from Brain Pain, mid-set classics such as "Heroes Get Remembered, Legends Never Die," and closers featuring "Whiplash" and "Get Out of My Head" to bridge into the headliners, with fan interactions limited to quick crowd surfs due to the opening role but still generating fervent sing-alongs. This configuration underscores their adaptability, using shorter bursts of intensity to warm up audiences for the main event while teasing material from .

Festival appearances and special events

Four Year Strong secured regular performance slots at the Vans Warped Tour, a prominent traveling , from 2007 to 2010, followed by a return appearance in 2013 and participation in the 2025 Long Beach edition celebrating the event's 30th anniversary. These appearances allowed the band to showcase their high-energy sets to diverse audiences across multiple U.S. stops each summer, contributing to their growing visibility in the scene. In 2022, Four Year Strong took the stage at the inaugural When We Were Young Festival in Las Vegas, delivering sets focused on their early catalog during the event's emo and pop-punk revival theme, performing multiple weekends to enthusiastic fans. These festival outings highlighted the band's adaptability to large-scale environments, often featuring condensed setlists emphasizing anthemic hits like "It Must Really Suck to Be Four Year Strong Right Now" to fit time constraints. Beyond standard festival billing, Four Year Strong has engaged in special events that emphasize intimate or thematic performances. In 2017, they launched a 10th anniversary tour for their debut album Rise or Die Trying, playing the record in full at club venues across the U.S. and internationally, with live recordings capturing the raw energy of tracks like "Heroes Get Remembered, Legends Never Die." The band has also hosted acoustic sets, such as stripped-down sessions at in-stores and their annual Holiday Special livestreams, which blend holiday covers with fan favorites to foster closer connections during off-tour periods. Festival appearances have significantly broadened Four Year Strong's fanbase by exposing them to new listeners in multi-act settings, leading to increased streaming and merchandise sales post-events, as seen after their 2022 When We Were Young slots. These opportunities often prompted setlist variations, with festivals favoring shorter, crowd-pleasing medleys over full album playthroughs, allowing the band to experiment with transitions and guest spots while maintaining their signature mosh-pit intensity.

Music and artistry

Musical style and evolution

Four Year Strong's music is rooted in , blending , , and elements to create an energetic, melodic sound characterized by fast-paced rhythms and infectious hooks. The band's core style emphasizes accessibility through uplifting choruses while incorporating aggressive breakdowns, earning them recognition as pioneers of "easycore"—a hybrid that combines pop-punk's catchy structures with metalcore's heavier, mosh-friendly riffs. Central to their approach are the dual lead vocals of guitarists Dan O'Connor and Alan Day, who alternate between clean, harmonious singing and shouted, intense deliveries to heighten emotional and dynamic contrast. Production techniques play a key role in their sound, featuring layered gang vocals for communal anthemic choruses and polished yet raw mixes that balance melody with chaos, fostering high-energy live experiences. These elements, evident across their , prioritize crowd engagement through sing-along refrains and rhythmic drive, drawing from punk's DIY ethos while achieving radio-friendly polish. The band's evolution began with straightforward melodic hardcore in their formative years, transitioning to riff-heavy aggression by 2010 that amplified their hardcore influences. A temporary pivot toward textures in 2011 gave way to renewed heaviness in mid-decade releases, marked by intricate guitar work and dynamic shifts. By the late and into the , they expanded further, integrating electronic infusions such as industrial synths into their base, as heard in albums like Brain Pain and , allowing for broader sonic experimentation without abandoning their foundational intensity.

Influences and lyrical themes

Four Year Strong's musical influences are rooted in the 1990s pop-punk and emo scenes, with the band frequently citing bands such as New Found Glory, Blink-182, and Lifetime as key inspirations that shaped their energetic, melodic style. These influences are prominently showcased in their 2009 cover album Explains It All, which serves as a direct homage to the era's sounds through punk-infused renditions of tracks by those artists and others from the decade, allowing the band to pay tribute to the music and culture that influenced their formation. The band's lyrics often explore themes of relationships, youth angst, and self-doubt, capturing the emotional turbulence of personal and professional growth. For instance, on their 2010 album , songs like the title track reflect feelings of isolation and adversity in the music industry, portraying a sense of the "world being against you" amid touring pressures and self-questioning. Later works delve deeper into relational dynamics, as seen in Brain Pain (2020), where tracks address mutual misery in partnerships and the challenges of balancing personal connections with band life. Resilience emerges as a recurring motif, particularly post-hiatus, emphasizing rebirth and authenticity in overcoming identity struggles. Over time, Four Year Strong's thematic focus has shifted from the high-energy party anthems of their early releases to more introspective content in the . Their 2024 album marks this evolution, centering on , creative doubts, and the anxiety of reinvention, as the band grapples with their place in a changing landscape while maintaining relatability for fans.

Band members

Current members

The current lineup of Four Year Strong consists of four core members who have been instrumental in the band's output since the mid-2000s. Dan O'Connor serves as lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, having co-founded the band in 2001 while still in high school in . As a primary songwriter, O'Connor contributed to the writing and performance on the band's 2024 album , and he has occasionally taken on production roles. He remains active in live performances, including the band's 2025 tours supporting releases like the single "Whiplash." Alan Day handles and shared lead vocals, also joining as a founding member in 2001. Day co-wrote several tracks on Analysis Paralysis and has been a key performer on recent headlining tours, contributing to the band's dual-vocal dynamic that defines their sound. Joe Weiss plays bass and provides backing vocals, having joined the band in 2004. He participated in the recording of Analysis Paralysis and supports the rhythm section during ongoing live shows, including appearances in 2025. Jake Massucco rounds out the group on drums, another founding member from 2001. Massucco laid down the percussion for Analysis Paralysis and has been essential to the band's high-energy performances on their 2025 itinerary.

Former members

Josh Lyford served as the band's keyboardist and backing vocalist from 2006 to 2011, contributing to their early albums Rise or Die Trying (2007), Stop Drop and Roll (2008), and Enemy of the World (2010), where his synth elements helped define their pop-punk sound with melodic hardcore influences. On April 3, 2011, Four Year Strong announced Lyford's departure, initially framing it as a mutual decision to allow him to focus on personal pursuits, though Lyford later revealed he was informed just over a week prior—two days before a tour—that the band was phasing out the keyboard role as they shifted musical directions. He expressed surprise and hurt over the decision after five years with the group, emphasizing his efforts as a positive team player, while the band wished him well without elaborating further. Following his exit, Lyford pursued music production and performance with the hardcore band Foxfires, which he fronted starting around 2011, releasing albums like The Golden Age (2013) and emphasizing a serious approach to melodic hardcore without taking themselves too seriously. He also developed a writing career, contributing a column called "Lyford Files" to Worcester Magazine from 2011 onward, covering local music and culture until at least 2019. Among the band's earliest members, Ardie Petsas played bass from 2001 to 2004, helping establish the initial lineup alongside co-founders Dan O'Connor, Alan Day, and Jake Massucco during their high school years in . Bryan Gregoire provided lead vocals from 2001 to 2002, contributing to the group's formative and style before departing amid early lineup adjustments. Other early members included Chris Pigao on vocals (2001–2004) and John Dagnello on guitar (2002). These shifts, including Petsas's exit, paved the way for Joe Weiss to join on bass in 2004, stabilizing the core as the band signed with I Surrender Records for their debut EP in 2004. By 2008, further transitions integrated Lyford more prominently, though subsequent changes like his 2011 departure factored into the band's brief hiatus after their self-titled album.
