The Story So Far has officially transitioned into a new era with the surprise release of their live album, ‘I Want To Disappear In The USA’. This 21-track collection marks the debut release for their own California-based indie label, Oak Grove Records, moving away from their long-standing home at Pure Noise. Recorded during their 2024 headlining run, the record captures the raw, visceral energy that has made them a pillar of modern pop-punk, featuring high-octane versions of “Big Blind,” “Letterman,” and earlier fan favorites like “Quicksand” and “Nerve.” It is a calculated move that allows the band to own their masters and provide fans with a definitive document of their live show’s current evolution.
The release arrived just as the band wrapped up their massive 2025 autumn tour alongside Neck Deep, Origami Angel, and Pain Of Truth. This run across the United States served as a victory lap for their fifth studio album, ‘I Want To Disappear’, which was hailed for its sharp guitar riffs and the urgent, “Proper Dose”-era maturity that frontman Parker Cannon has mastered. By launching Oak Grove Records with a live record, the band is signaling a more DIY, fan-focused approach to their future. For those who missed the sold-out dates in cities like Brooklyn and Santa Ana, this live set offers an intimate, unfiltered look at a band that remains at the top of their game twenty years in.
