The Valley Arena was formed by Mike Nielsen, Chris Stevens and Warren Woodward in late 2003. Early on, the band took influence from both the DC Dischord scene (Fugazi, Q and Not U) and San Diego (Hot Snakes, No Knife). In February 2009, The Valley Arena began work on their third LP, We Died and the album was recorded completely in just eight days!

As of 2009, The Valley Arena has played over 400 shows, including tours and performances with: Mike Watt, Joe Lally (Fugazi), Hella, Don Caballero, Polysics, Thrice, Denali, The Meat Puppets, Monotonix, XBXRX, Planes Mistaken for Stars, The Appleseed Cast and and approximately 1,000 really bad teenage metal bands.
