Misery Signals is a metalcore/mathcore band formed in Wisconsin in 2002. The sound of their music is defined by bright melodies backed up by odd time signatures, heavy riffs and breakdowns. They are known in the metalcore scene for their musicianship and energetic live shows.
History
Misery Signals was formed after the break-ups of several bands, those bands being 7 Angels 7 Plagues, Hamartia and Compromise. Having played temporarily with 7 Angels 7 Plagues, former Compromise vocalist Jesse Zaraska was approached by Ryan Morgan and Kyle Johnson for a new project, which would become Misery Signals. Jeff Aust from Hamartia at that point filled out the lineup on second guitar, and Ryan Morgan's brother Branden took the drums. Aust soon left the band and has since gone on to join With Honor, he was replaced by Stu Ross - a friend of Jesse Zaraska's from Edmonton, Alberta.
The band eventually signed to New Jersey's Ferret Music, releasing their first full-length album, Of Malice and the Magnum Heart. After extensive touring, Zaraska decided to leave the band to focus on a smaller, less aggressive project named Sleeping Girl, at which point the rest of the band decided to put up an instrumental song on their MySpace page, encouraging anyone who wanted to take over the spot of vocalist to record their own voice over the instrumental and e-mail it to the band. This was the way they found new vocalist Karl Schubach, with whom they recorded their album,Mirrors. Misery Signals have finished recording songs for their new album due to be released July 22nd, 2008 entitled Controller. The album is being recorded by Devin Townsend and released by Ferret Music.

Misery Signals has been on notable tours with Eighteen Visions, Fear Before the March of Flames, Norma Jean, All That Remains, I Killed The Prom Queen, The Human Abstract, Between the Buried and Me, Bleeding Through, Zao, Darkest Hour, The Chariot, Straight Reads The Line, Means and Shai Hulud. They just got through touring with The Agony Scene, Emmure and Born Of Osiris. They are currently touring Europe with August Burns Red and Emmure and the next US and Canada tour has been billed with As I Lay Dying.

This album featured the popular song "The Year Summer Ended In June" which was redone from their EP. "Mirrors" which featured their new singer Karl, was released summer of 2006.
