Worcester native band Four Year Strong’s newest album Brain Pain is their best since Enemy of the World in 2009.
Brain Pain is the band’s sixth studio album and it oozes authenticity in both the sound and lyrics of the songs. Like the album title nods to, the music deals with heavy mental issues such as depression, anxiety, and identity crises. Pop punk as a genre is no stranger to emotional music, but Four Year Strong brings new angles to the genre with each of their albums.
