Misery Signals Releasing "Yesterday Was Everything" Documentary

Over the last decade, influential hardcore band Misery Signals has undergone overwhelming changes involving the departure of the group's founding singer and infighting that nearly left the band in complete shambles.

In a new documentary, directed by Matthew Mixon and titled “Yesterday Was Everything,” the band members takes viewers on an intimate journey of reconciliation as they find healing in the present by confronting the demons of the past. The documentary will be available on June 30th at iTunes, Google Play and Amazon.

Misery Signals will be hosting an in-theater screening of the documentary in Edmonton, AB on June 20th (7:00pm at Metro Cinema at the Garneau, 8712 109th Street, Edmonton AB) with partial proceeds being donated to Mothers Against Drunk Driving.

Filmed during a 2014 tour in celebration of the 10th anniversary of coveted album, "Of Malice and the Magnum Heart," this documentary follows the band reuniting with its former vocalist for the first time since his unceremonious ousting a decade prior. The film explores the fatal tragedy that brought the band together and follows a journey from Vancouver to Toronto facing old ghosts and attempting to reconcile the past.

Stuart Ross (guitar) comments: "'Yesterday Was Everything' provides a glimpse into a very tumultuous period in our development as young men, friends and musicians. Without the ups and downs of those formative years it's hard to say where we'd all be today. I believe this film offers fans of the band intimate information to questions that have otherwise gone unanswered. It allows insight into the story of Compromise; a tragedy that forever changed the trajectory of our lives."

Bassist Kyle Johnson adds: "Matthew Mixon does a fantastic job of portraying the intensity that lies within the story. The good alongside the bad, the uncomfortable moments, the love shared between the five of us that extends to all the friends and fans we have made over the last decade, and the ability to come out of it still being able to call each other friends. I can't wait for the world to experience it."
