The Constant

Story of the Year

Polished, anthemic rock built on massive choruses and precision-engineered riffs. A high-gloss evolution of the mid-2000s post-hardcore sound.

It's the ultimate high-gloss soundtrack for when you want to feel like the protagonist of a 2010 action movie.

A high-energy blend of defiant resilience and polished, anthemic optimism.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The massive group-vocal chant opening of The Children Sing that sets a communal tone
The transition into the double-time punk beat during the bridge of To the Burial
The soaring, radio-ready melodic arc of the chorus in I am Alive
The aggressive, metallic guitar breakdown in Eye for an Eye that recalls their heavier roots
