After quietly releasing their self-titled debut album in 1999 while still in college, American Football disbanded after the album's release to focus on other projects, only to reunite 15 years later to a fanbase that had been consistently growing throughout the underground \/ emo scene. The album later appeared on Rolling Stone's \"40 Greatest Emo Albums of All Time\" list at #6, with Pitchfork giving it's deluxe reissue the \"Best New Reissue\" title, calling it the \"most influential album in the genre.\" The reunion was followed by 2 more self-titled full-length albums (LP2 and LP3), collaborations with the likes of Paramore's Hayley Williams, San Holo, boyband and others, as well as numerous sold-out world tours.\u003cbr\u003eOn the Rare Symmetry \/ Fade Into You 10\" single, American Football (Mike Kinsella, Nate Kinsella, Steve Holmes) expand on the dense beauty of LP3 with \"Rare Symmetry\", incorporating chiming vibraphones, intricate picking patterns, and devastating lyrics. For the B-side, the band offers up a dazzling cover of Mazzy Star's 1994 hit single, \"Fade Into You,\" with Miya Folick contributing vocals. Both tracks feature the iconic, jazz-infused drumming of former founding member Steve Lamos, who played on these songs before announcing his departure earlier this year. \"This modern iteration of American Football has one foot in Midwestern emo and another in lush dream pop.\" -Rolling Stone \"Time has always seemed to work in American Football's favor.\" -NPR (Best Rock Albums of 2019) \"Incorporating fuzzy shoegaze and metronomic post-rock, expanding the palette with rich and vibrant colours, it sounds fabulous; languid and deliberate but bursting with ideas.\" -NME\u003c\/p\u003e Shop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e 24\/7.\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42838260416733,"sku":"644110045911","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/products\/b9e2tgbb2xavah7qy5co.jpg?v=1731256698"},{"product_id":"american-football-american-football-lp3","title":"American Football- American Football (LP3) (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eLimited 180gm Light Blue vinyl LP pressing, includes digital download. American Football's original triumph, on their 1999 self-titled debut, was to reunite two shy siblings: emo and post-rock. It was a pioneering album where lyrical clarity was obscured and complicated by the stealth musical textures surrounding it. Like Slint's Spiderland, or Codeine's The White Birch, even Talk Talk's Laughing Stock, American Football asked far more questions than it cared to answer. But there wasn't a band around anymore to explain it, anyway. The three young men who made the album - Mike Kinsella, Steve Holmes, and Steve Lamos - split up pretty much on it's release. 15 years later, American Football reunited (now as a four-piece, with the addition of Nate Kinsella). They played far larger shows than in their original incarnation and recorded their long-anticipated second album, 2016's American Football (LP2). The release was widely praised, but the band members still felt like their best work was yet to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e 24\/7.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43310348271837,"sku":"644110037411","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/products\/zlohu6sw8n7k3hbyelmw.jpg?v=1731281616"},{"product_id":"american-football-american-football-dlx-2lp","title":"American Football- American Football (DLX 2LP) (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eDeluxe edition 2 LP 2014 reissue on red marbled 180-gram vinyl. Jazz influences took their effect on the short-lived emo band American Football. All through their self-titled 1999 debut album, you can hear jazz rhythm and timing while the instruments trade off solos like they are talking to each other. Yet, blended with true emo lyrics and musical styling's, the jazz flavoring makes for a one-of-a-kind experience. All of it is due to the understated creative genius of drummer and trumpeter Steve Lamos, guitar and organ player Steve Holmes and guitarist, bassist and vocalist Mike Kinsella. As a band, American Football dissolved into the history books almost as soon as their album was released, but it's success continues to grow in their absence. Fan requests for vinyl pressings were eventually acted upon, and several early editions sold out almost instantly. The now standard nationwide reissue on green vinyl remains in print.

The band played a dozen shows and then parted ways. Then something remarkable happened: for the next 15 years, the album was discovered over and over, going on to sell more than 100,000 copies and becoming one of the most influential indie albums of all-time. In 2014 and 2015 American Football played their first shows in 15 years, selling out venues the world over.
