STORY SO FAR, THE - What You Don't See LP (Colour Vinyl)

Label: Pure Noise

In just over a year, Bay Area quintet The Story So Far have gone from playing basements in California to headlining their own national tour, becoming one of the main components of the Defend Pop Punk movement. Raw and passionate yet highly infectious, their unique brand of hardcore-influenced pop punk adds a fresh new aspect to the genre. Their new full-length What You Don’t See is one of the most anticipated records of 2013, yet fans have no reason to fear a sophomore slump. The Story So Far have returned with another album full of energetic, aggressive songs while still managing to demonstrate growth in their sound.

The Story So Far move much faster on What You Don’t See, skipping a placeholder and recording only driven, aggressive tracks. While sonically similar to their debut, the band has matured as both musicians and as people. Intensely passionate, honest, and catchy, this album proves that The Story So Far are still a dominating force in the current pop punk scene and will only continue to grow.
