On October 12th & 13th, 2024, American Football performed two sold- out shows at the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles - part of the band’s 25th anniversary tour for their self-titled debut album. Featuring guest appearances from Ethel Cain and M.A.G.S., these special shows were recorded for American Football’s first and only live album, American Football (Live in Los Angeles). To coincide with the album’s release, the band teamed up with Prophet Media and director Steph Rinzler for the release of a full-length concert film, featuring candid interviews with the band, Ethel Cain, Yvette Young, and M.A.G.S. Both the film and album captures the legacy and unexpected staying power of a group that helped define a genre.
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 its deluxe reissue the “Best New Reissue” title, calling it the “most influential album in the genre.”
15% of proceeds donated to the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Recovery Fund. Vinyl pressed by Good Neighbor, whose mission to offer a high-fidelity listening experience stands side-by-side with their commitment to preserving our planet. Using a first-of-its-kind, patented product, Good Neighbor’s discs are made with non-toxic and fully recyclable material and are produced using an injection molding process instead of a hydraulic press. The resulting records are virtually indistinguishable from traditional vinyl in sound, look, and feel -- but without the carbon footprint.
