American Football made an EP and a self-titled album in the late '90s that didn't garner much attention at the time of their releases, but in the years that followed, the band's sparse and emotional sound has become an influential emo touchstone. Their stature grew, and when they reunited in 2014 for a handful of shows, the outpouring of love and support they received spurred them to make the reunion a more permanent venture. The group's new albums in the second half of the 2010s capture the spirit of their earlier work but with the added gravitas of time's passing, as well as a new sense of sonic experimentation, especially on 2019's LP3. A series of anniversary concerts in 2024 resulted in their first live album and in 2026, they kept the bad times rolling with a typically gloomy, epically atmospheric album, LP4.
