      • "Until the Day I Die" is the debut single by American rock band Story of the Year. It is the second track on their debut album, Page Avenue (2003). "Until the Day I Die" was released to radio on August 12, 2003. A music video was released along with the single in 2003. Dan Marsala said "We had no idea how to do a video — we just did everything by trial and error".
      The song received airplay and has been used in popular media extensively, including a trailer for the film Friday Night Lights.
      The song makes use of staccato guitar riffing and screamed vocals. "Until the Day I Die" was a contender for the band's name before being used as a song title. The song "magically came together" after the intro riff and opening lyrics were composed. The band has called the track a "relationship song".
      Alternative Press remarked, "if you were a teenager in the early 2000s, chances are you had the lyrics to Story of the Year’s breakout 2003 single “Until The Day I Die” as your AIM away message." They also said that the song's screamed bridge "polarized the industry in revolutionary ways when unclean vocals were a foreign concept on mainstream radio".
