Four Year Strong is a pop punk band from Worcester, Massachusetts. The band’s breakout came in 2007 with Rise or Die Trying - a record that electrified the scene showcasing a brand of Boston-area hardcore mixed with pop punk. Though not necessarily the first to toy with this sound, Four Year Strong would go on to become synonymous with what is now known as easycore, along with bands like Set Your Goals, New Found Glory and even A Day to Remember.
Though the band is still active to this day, their well earned rise to scene stardom, yet speedy demise may be another cautionary tale about what can go wrong when the music industry meets hardworking punk bands.
