Background notes
Archive material and source history
Your Name In Vain formed in 2003 when childhood friends Adam Siska and Mike Kennedy started playing together in Los Angeles. They brought in drummer Dave Sellers and began building a following through live shows. The band's 2008 album 'American Apparel' gave them their breakthrough, with the title track becoming a signature song.
After Sellers left the band, they continued with Siska on vocals and guitar, Kennedy on bass, and Brad Hargrove on drums. They released several more albums including 'Empty the Way' in 2011 and 'Pace of the Golden Mean' in 2014. Songs like 'My Own Rapture' and 'Polaris' show their blend of raw energy and melodic rock.
The band's catalog includes 'Scars & Flowers' from 2017 and 'Dead Man's Blues' from 2020. Their music maintains a straightforward alternative rock approach with songs that range from driving tracks like 'Velocity' to more atmospheric pieces like 'Peresephone'.
