History
Formation and first releases (2004–2008)
Forming in 2004, Set Your Goals released their first self-titled EP through Straight on Records in May 2004. The band embarked on some of their first tours with The Warriors and Make Move, Audelio Flores was playing bass for them at the time, as the word circulated about the EP they were approached by a number of labels. After "touring off of that alone for almost 2 years", they signed with Eulogy Recordings and re-released the EP under the name Reset in April 2006. Audelio Flores joined the band on April 2006.[2] Their second release on Eulogy was their debut studio album, entitled Mutiny!, which was released in July 2006. During winter of 2007 Dave Yoha amicably left the band due to tour exhaust. Daniel Coddaire returned for touring before he rejoined the band officially in 2008. Coddaire was Set Your Goals original lead guitarist.
In the Spring of 2007, they were support on Anti-Flag's headlining tour alongside Alexisonfire and Big D and the Kids Table. Set Your Goals released an acoustic version of their track "Echoes" for the Punk Goes Acoustic 2 compilation on Fearless Records in 2007. They also covered Lil Jon's "Put Yo Hood Up" for the Fearless Records compilation Punk Goes Crunk, released in April 2008.
In the Spring of 2008 they played on the Bamboozle Roadshow with Saves the Day, Armor for Sleep, Valencia and Metro Station. Set Your Goals released a song entitled "The Fallen" through the social networking sites Trig and MySpace, and the flash and audio website Newgrounds. They played the entire 2008 Vans Warped Tour on the Smartpunk Stage.
Record label issues and This Will Be the Death of Us (2008–2010)
Set Your Goals reached a buy-out agreement with Eulogy Recordings in August 2008 at an estimated $125,000.[5] It has also been reported that the band got their manager to buy out their contract for $150,000. Vocalist Matt Wilson later hinted that their next release may be self-released, saying, "The truth is we have many options for our next record and self-releasing is one of the best and a very likely option."[6] In March 2009, it was announced that Epitaph Records had signed the band.[7]
They supported New Found Glory on the UK Easy Core tour later in the year. They were the main support to New Found Glory on the Not Without a Fight tour in early 2009.

In support of the upcoming album, they toured Australia with All Time Low and Stealing O'Neal, and are set to tour the United States throughout July and August with Four Year Strong, Polar Bear Club, The Swellers and Fireworks. The band has been playing new songs from This Will Be the Death of Us live.[10]
On the 28th of July Set Your Goals announced that their album This Will Be the Death of Us had made the Billboard (magazine) top 200 by placing at #65. This was in continuation to their previous success on their sophomore full length album, where the song The Few That Remain Featuring Hayley Williams was requested at KROQ and was input into KROQ's infamous Furious Five. The song Gaia Bleeds is featured on Madden NFL 10.
