American Football - LP1 Deluxe Edition

If you know, you know! The self-titled debut from American Football has quietly earned superhero status among emo albums and is now back and bigger than ever in this Deluxe Edition. Originally released in 1999, this is the record that launched a thousand wistful late-night drives and an unhealthy obsession with a house.

Led by emo luminary Mike Kinsella (Cap’n Jazz, Owen, Owls) along with Steve Lamos and Steve Holmes, American Football shook up indie rock with tangled guitars, mathy drum grooves, and lyrics that hit you right in the feels. This expanded 2xLP package doesn’t just give you the original songs in all their heartfelt glory—it’s packed with rare gems: demos, never-before-heard live versions, and practice recordings straight from the vault.

With new liner notes, gorgeous photos by Chris Strong, and a lush presentation you’ll want to keep within arm’s reach—not tucked away on a shelf—this is the definitive way to experience a classic. Perfect for longtime fans, newcomers, or anyone who’s ever looked out a rain-streaked window and just felt all the feelings.
