American Football – American Football

Released October 21st, 2016

American Football reconvenes for its second self-titled album after nearly two decades. The current incarnation of American Football has changed in some aspects, though regrettably. That’s not to say that the band has lost everything of what made them stand out in the past. The overall result is a disappointment for a band that has had  close to twenty years to hone their skills for this effort. The lyrics are unfortunately uninspired and drab. The songs on the album though capably written, retain a uniformity with arrangements that are less enchanting and overly clean. They’re neat and slick, well recorded, but also largely forgettable and even stiff in carriage and expression.

2.5 of 5 stars
