Four Year Strong Release It Must Really Suck To Be Four Year Strong

• 18th Jun 2010

Pop punk supremos, Four Year Strong, have confirmed that they will release a new single “It Must Really Suck To Be In Four Year Strong” in the UK on Defacto/Island Records on August 23rd. The single will be released as a download and limited edition 7” vinyl. Two videos have been made in the UK for the single – one which was made by fans and features the band rocking out with their fans.

The band, Dan O'Connor (Vocals/Guitar), Alan Day (Vocals/Guitar), Josh Lyford (Vocals/Synth), Jake Massucco (Drums), and Joe Weiss (Bass), was formed in Massachusetts in 2001 after O'Conner, Day, and Massucco met through mutual friends. With influences like Lifetime, Saves the Day, Gorilla Biscuits, and New Found Glory.

Their distinct sound and incredibly energetic live shows has led to their inclusion on countless tours and also caught the attention of Fallout Boy's Pete Wentz, who signed FYS to his label Decaydance Records in February 2008. The band's heightened profile hasn't stopped them from working non-stop as they continued a hectic touring schedule last year as a part of the Rockstar Taste of Chaos tour and co-headlining a summer tour with Set Your Goals in the US. The band have recently been touring in the US with Every Time I Die and appeared in the UK on the Slam Dunk dates.

The band are about to embark on the world famous Warped Tour later this week for the summer.
