American Football - American Football [Light Blue]

Experience the pioneering sounds of American Football with their self-titled debut album, now available on limited edition 180gm light blue vinyl. Originally released in 1999, this album masterfully blends emo and post-rock, creating a unique and influential soundscape. American Football's debut is known for its lyrical clarity, obscured and complicated by stealthy musical textures, drawing comparisons to iconic albums like Slint's "Spiderland," Codeine's "The White Birch," and Talk Talk's "Laughing Stock."

This pressing includes a digital download, offering both the tactile joy of vinyl and the convenience of digital access. After splitting up shortly after the album's release, the band reunited 15 years later, expanding to a four-piece with Nate Kinsella and continuing their musical journey. Add this essential album to your collection and appreciate the groundbreaking work of Mike Kinsella, Steve Holmes, and Steve Lamos that continues to inspire and captivate listeners.
