Story of the Year es una banda de rock, basada en Alternative, Emo, Hardcore y Metal, formada originalmente en St. Louis, Missouri en 1996. Inicialmente se llamaron Big Blue Monkey, pero cambiaron en el 2002 a Story of the Year ya que un grupo de blues tomó el nombre de Blue Monkey. Hasta ahora, Story Of The Year han lanzado cuatro álbumes de estudio, el más reciente, The Constant, lanzado en Febrero de 2010 por Epitaph, además de un álbum en directo, Live In The Lou.
