'Based on a True Story' is the ninth studio album by New York hardcore punk band Sick of It All, originally released on 20th April 2010.
With a career spanning 20+ years and hundreds of thousands of albums sold worldwide, 'Based on a True Story' added an exhilarating new chapter to the Sick of It All legend. Doubtlessly the band's hardest hitting effort up to then, 'Based on a True Story' easily meets the high quality of its predecessor, 'Death to Tyrants' (2006), and offers tons of soon-to-be-classic hardcore hymns like 'Dominated', 'Long As She's Standing', 'The Divide' and 'Lowest Common Denominator'. It features the most catchy and powerful material the band has ever written. The album was recorded with Tue Madsen at Starstruck Studios in Copenhagen, Denmark, resulting in a massive metallic heaviness.
