Savor the explosive sounds from Story of the Year (SOTY), as they headline the "Taste the Poison Tour," which contaminates a U.S. city near you beginning October 13 in Columbia, MO. Joining SOTY on their trek across the U.S., are bands Anberlin, Greeley Estates and Monty Are I.

Expect plenty of new band merch and exciting new set props from SOTY, which add to their infamous and explosive live performance. Also among these new additions: "The Skull's [Adam Russell] hair will be a lot longer because long hair equals metal!" adds the band.

Previous releases from SOTY include 2003's "Page Avenue," 2005's "Live in the Lou/Bassassins" CD/DVD and their sophomore album, 2005's "In the Wake of Determination."

With earlier appearances on Warped Tour, the 2006 U.S. "Taste of Chaos Tour," and numerous headlining tours to their credit, SOTY will only continue to captivate you with their high-energy performances!

"If music acts could be eaten, Story of the Year would be Pop Rocks candy."
-- Dallas Morning News

"To fully appreciate Story of the Year, you must attend their live show."
-- Metal Edge

"The band couldn't be more different. Story of the Year played revved-up
motivational anthems, made visceral with back flips off the drum risers and
behind-the-head guitar soloing."
-- Newsday, New York

Now, witness SOTY for yourself!
