Story of the Year Band • Page 37

What's the story behind his departure?

 

He was fired through management unexpectedly. That’s the official story. Of the year.

 

some guy from St. Louis wrote this in a Thrice fb fangroup:

another guy wrote:

take it with a grain of salt because, you know, some dudes on the internet wrote it

 

Phil not being in the band is still weird, but I have full faith in these guys without him.

 

Oh, it won’t happen again (especially with Phil being good friends with him now), but I’d actually love to hear what these guys would put out working With Feldy again. Whether it be one song or an EP...it’d be interesting to hear.

Sprinkle killed it on the last album though, so I’d be just as happy if he worked with them again for the next album.

 

Didn't Ryan say they were working on something with Feldy earlier this year? Before covid exploded.

 

I have no idea, but I hope he did!

 

I think he did. On the Jordan Phoenix podcast from July 22nd. I'm sure Feldmann can be professional enough to have Phil as a bandmember/friend and still work with SOTY.

Kicking Phil out was most likely a personal matter, as many have mentioned before. And I think talking about it would threaten the privacy of those involved (Phil's ex and Ryan's wife).

 

Re: Feldy- Agreed. Mike Herrera had Darren Pfiefer(sp) the old Goldfinger drummer on his podcast a couple times after he had left the band and the bulk of the episodes were Darrin talking shit about Feldman. Mike has still been in Goldfinger after all that. This is Feldmans job and I think that’s exactly how he sees it.

 

i think they are, Ryan had some IG stories a month or so ago about him FaceTiming with Feldy about something

 

Just listened to the latest episode. This is Dan.

15 year live stream of “In The Wake..” I’d imagine.

 

The feedback at the end sounded like the beginning of And The Hero Will Drown.

 

My guess is either a live stream show (they said pretty recently they wanted to eventually do a ‘music video quality’ live stream) or new music (they’ve been on the studio off and on since December)

 

So it does. I was guessing of the colours, haha. Hope it’s a livestream that isn’t just PA.

Oh shiiiiiiiiiiiiit

 

The past few days I’ve been listening to The Black Swan non stop. That album has aged like wine and the lyrics apply more than ever with all the shit going on right now.

 

Hyped for Black Swan especially

 

Oh wow. Did Underoath pave the way?

 

How so?
Underoath are by far not the only band who’ve been doing livestream shows.

 

Seems a few artists have been going down this route this week. I’ve had emails from Avril Lavgine and Machine Gun Kelly announcing that they’re doing streaming shows and I bet there’s more to come.
