After quietly releasing their self-titled debut album in 1999 while still in college, American Football disbanded after the albums 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 Stones 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. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the albums release, Polyvinyl is thrilled to announce a new remastered edition of the album with re-imagined artwork and packaging.
