going to cry to this all day thanks
Polyvinyl Records sounds like a bad day
Hi dad
Dont worry Jay Som, of Montreal, Pedro the Lion ought to be able to cheer you up. And you can't cry when KEXP did their regular old normal unbelievably amazing job this sounds fantastic!
@@musyarofah1 hello my child
Dude, we're so old now. 😬. Can you get Pele back together to tour with these dudes? It would blow the kids' minds.
this music makes me sad about my divorce. i’ve never even been married
HAHA
yeah
lol
Christ you nailed their whole sound with this sentence
LP1 = sad about breaking up with your girlfriend
LP2 = sad about being old
LP3 = sad about getting divorced
it's very satisfying to watch this drummer play
Steve Lamos is such an underrated drummer
His face is so fun to watch
His drums and drumming sound amazing yes. Their was a pretty good interview with him and he describes what he likes to play as far as drums and cymbals go. Makes me want to go out and buy the same set up haha .
One of my favorite drummers. He's also a professor at University of Colorado!
He seems to have a background in Jazz drumming. It's very enjoyable to watch.
I hope they know that their music still appeals to Midwest college students. Watching this instead of studying for finals
You made a sound decision. Priorities.
Still does for me too I met 3 or or 4 big American football fans here
I’m 40
me rn
I'm 13, this just hits the spot
Mike Kinsella
Day 1 of Recording:
"Fella's, I'm gonna need you to bring me every goddamn xylophone you can find"
my thought exactly
Except they’re not xylophones ;)
@@joardebaat2559 not even a single one too
@@canyon_online 😂
@@joardebaat2559 thank you! My first thought too. Haha.
Stay home is the best American Football song. I used to love Never Meant, but I think Stay Home perfectly expresses what American Football attempts to convey to its audience; the facts of life, the melancholy nature of it, and finally acceptance of the order and chaos of the various interactions and experiences that people have and make with each other.
i get it except the accepting part :(
Well put.
The Summer ends + Honestly + Stay home = AF
@@oliverjackson3761 chill out, Oliver. Lol
@@oliverjackson3761 lol all good, man.
0:20 Silhouettes
10:00 Every Wave To Ever Rise
24:20 Uncomfortably numb
28:56 Stay Home
Think you should change your youtube name to super quick flash guy ... thank you first time really listening to american football this helps!
JP Connolly haha its the first time I do this AND the first time I listen to american football, but I loved the first two songs and wanted to listen to the others later so 🤷🏻♂️
36:30 the one with the wurlitzer
What band does Mike mention @21:26?
I believe "Every Wave to Ever Rise" starts at about 8:47
so good guys 😭
DUDE I LOVE YOU
Game respect game
and now i'm so excited to hear them featured in your album :)
I love your music and I love American Football. The fact that you're a big fan makes me so happy.
ameris
anholo
I didn’t know they can sound sadder but when they started talking how their kids don’t like their music I felt like rushing to hug them.
The extended intro on Silhouettes really does the song justice. Such a beautiful song.
"I'll make new friends... in the ambulance" is the biggest emotional ride i've ever experienced from a single sentence. Always gives me chills
liking this music and not having anyone in your life to share your love of it with is a tragedy
Hey, I'm giving you my hand here.
Lol, relatable
Lol, SAME!
Brooooio
Too ugly we are
stay home is the best!! Timeless song
Edit: the description doesn’t mention it but they play the one with the wurlitzer right after
they probably just thought it was the outro
steve lamos cracks me up, loved watchin him turn his snare on into 'silhouettes' - too smooth
His touches are what tie the whole thing up so nicely.
AAAAAnd he left.
This drummer is amazing
really fun to watch too. great technique
I got to know him few weeks ago when they were on tour in Buenos Aires. Such a cool guy!
00:21 Silhouettes
08:54 Every Wave To Ever Rise
24:21 Uncomfortably Numb
28:57 Stay Home
*Personal time stamps
Just listened to their entire discography last night. Love these guys
Midwest Emo, aka TeleCore.
The one American football video where people aren’t having a shit storm over them not playing never meant, genuinely surprised haha
I bet it's because they played Stay Home
Zen Py I definitely agree. There’s way better songs off LP1.
It's definitely because they played Stay Home, lmao
The one with the Wurlitzer......makes me tear up every time. So so so beautiful god damn I love this band so much
i love the drummer smile :),make me happy too
The great tunes from Lp3 + stay home + the one with the wurlitzer
It's all I need
Pls go to Chile fellas
Picha
nga Chilena
sii porfa:(
waton qlo
Parfavaaar
yapoo vengan
Hope you always think of me when you listen to this... we used to enjoy it so much together and now I can't listen to American Football without traveling to your warm hugs in my mind. I will always love you. MBM.🖤
God bless em... so happy they’re still releasing music
Omg they played Stay Home. Today is going to be just fine.
ah yes, my favourite sad dads
That drummer loves his job!
Bassist too.
Fun fact: the drummer is actually a college professor too. The amount of talent that guy has is incredible.
@@ShockwavesFTW and he has a PhD! However he just exited the band. He is irreplaceable.
I could easily listen to a 10-hour loop of Stay Home's intro, it is one of the most beautiful musical sections I know
I kid you not. One of my life's best days was when I (from Sweden) met Mike Kinsella walking around in London that rainy day in early 2017. It was so fucking cold but there we were. Owen has been like the brother I never had growing up. Such a highlight to meet him. Met Nate in Oslo when he played with TTNG. Incredible grateful for their contributions to my life. Much obliged.
That transition into The One With the Wurlitzer almost made me shed a tear 😭
And, please, COME TO BRAZIL.
The bass sounds so good on this. Better than on the album I think. Ether way they are all incredible good musicians.
Holy shit, Abbie has an AMAZING radio voice.
Yeah!
And I hate to be that guy, but she's also really cute lol
Fancy FA 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽🤮
If you hate to be that guy than don't.
@@dulceglass9111 Come on man I'm just tryna be nice :(
Fancy FA if u were being that dude u would’ve said some weird shit. u were just being a kind lad and giving a compliment
3:03 ffffFfFUUCCKKKKK 😩😩
if it weren’t for rob scallon i literally never would’ve heard of american football. so glad that i did
My heart ♥️ Loved American Football since I was 15 in 2001
That LED curtain is just gorgeous. So vibey. I bet it even helps the performers in their delivery. Thank you KEXP.
Oh yeah, and American Football were pretty good too! 😜
Main guitar: the "I went to through a rough patch but now I'm clean" dad
2nd guitar: the "I have 3 daughters and no son" dad
Bass: the "I never married but I'm cool with my kids" dad
Drums: the classic american dad, who just happens to play the drums too
Vibraphone: The "I became a father at 16" dad
Keyboards: the "I think my girlfriend's pregnant" dad
"Classic American dads" don't play drums super well AND THEN just pull out a trumpet and make you cry.. thats more of a "one in million dad."
@@beemelonhead1 I mean, the traditional grip is pretty AMERICAN DAD, and the trumpet is pretty AMERICAN DAD.
and your point is?
@@declanmccarroll8940 they're all dads
@@beemelonhead1 its a cornet homie
THE ONE WITHOUT THE WURLITZER AT THE VERY END
With*
this version is without :P
The trumpet on Stay Home is everything! Thanks for that!
2 years and 3 months since this was uploaded and I discover it now. KEXP: the gift that keeps giving. Audio engineering is sensational.
What really surprised me a lot is instrumental part of their music.
It's so ahead of a time.
I really love so much their mathematical riffs. At first I was thinking: ok, that sounds very damn nice but how on earth is possible to put the vocals on this? And then the vocals came in and I was like: "my goodness, this is what perfection sounds like".
one that I love from americ anfootball is that every musician brings soooo much to the bands sound
saw them live yesterday and i thought i would only get emotional on the last few songs of the set(stay home in particular). Ended up crying on silhouettes(first song of the set) on the “i’m a cloud” bit. My favorite band OAT and i don’t think anything can change that at this point
"Everybody knows that the best way to describe the ocean to a blind man is to push him in."
Beautiful lyricism as always
No.
you got me excited thinking they were gonna play it...
Great lyric
Funny! My favourite quote from this album. My name is also Marcus. :)
this music makes me want to sit on a lawn somewhere in Wisconsin at 6 pm remembering my high school years
Silhouettes is perfect
I don’t know if I’m depressed or sad, but I enjoy these songs and the few people I’ve shown them to think the music is too sad or put their earbuds in in the truck. Then again, I have a thing for emotionally intense or sad music. I think it’s good music for any mood. It just sounds so good. I haven’t heard any happy music that moves me so much.
Best live version of "Stay Home" by miles! So pure yet full. Love to Americ Anfootball
man, I didn't know I need a Phillip Glass t-shirt until I saw hers
I could listen to Stay Home forever. And ever...
the transition between stay home/the one with the wurlitzer makes me wanna live
I thought this video was football, the sport. Now I'm emo 😂😂
This performance makes me weep.. I love it so much.
#MakeEmoGreatAgain
Such a heartfelt performance. I'm glad music like this exists.
"Stay Home" is too beautiful, it's too much for me.
This is emotion, expressed through pure musical performance. You can almost feel the words. Such a great band l.
I just got chills down my spine and I haven't even watched the live performance yet.. I'm strapped in and ready for this journey!
Come to Brazil
This is perfect. Worth the long wait
Stay Home + The One With The Wurtlizer, the two closing tracks from American Football's glorious self-titled debut album.
Finally! This session has been uploaded, and it's cool.
I still dream of seeing these fellas Someday. But they don't seem to make it to Mexico City anytime soon.
Luis Pérez Luna man i hate to break it to you but all of their albums are self-titled
@@arseniy1329 I know, that's why I said "self-titled DEBUT"
Luis Pérez Luna alright i’ll give that one to you. didn’t notice the word debut
I would cry if I saw them live
Thank you KEXP
That was amazing! Drumming really drove through that as a soundscape. Much much more than one song. Hats off.
I absolutely love all the people in this video. They are so alive.
damn stay home is my favorite song
Sadness knowing the closest I’ll ever get to seeing them live are these videos.
Funny that my American Football obsession started with a video of a guy flying off a toilet to Never Meant.
Same, i watched that vid and some others til i ended up here
Link? XD
Cool Trailer Park Boys reference!!
@@kidcoastless8575 czcams.com/video/0i54PlhPomM/video.html
@@innawoodsman this has been worth the year long wait. Thank you, truly
One of the best bands ever. Still relevant even today!
I'm in the midst of looking for inspiration for one of my band's new song's bassline, and for some reason since I heard the track I thought of American Football as the vibe I want it to take. Hearing the interview part of this performance and hearing Mike say that their bassist can hear and think of their songs in a way he wouldn't have thought of (colours) hit a nerve :)
Had never heard an interview with them, nor a full live show for that matter, only to their records but hearing him say that and Nate's reaction to that comment made me feel "right" about thinking of this band for the song we're working on
Been waiting for this for months. Incredible xxx
This record made me a fan. I agree with Mike I can’t stop listening to the tracks with guest vocals on it. Love the layers. Amazing music.
This take of stay home just might be their best because of the performance and perfect mixing
Dear KEXP, please stop finding new music for me to like I have 5 kids and a wife to support! (In case the sarcasm is missed, please DO NOT stop doing what you guys do! ) With much love from the UK
Well, to be fair to them this band's kinda old *winks*
Andrew Mulcaster you only have to mention the sarcasm as the Americans don’t understand sarcasm ahaha
Same here, but only three kids...:-D
@@mummyguy1 what are you talking about? Americans understand sarcasm better than most countries (other than the uk of course)
Lovely songs, cheers from Brazil!
The interviewee is great! Amazing questions and chemistry, whant an organic surrounding!
Never meant to hit those notes
P.S I really like the band and the latest album in particular.
Just started the video and let me just say, the energy in that introduction SO was on point.
Love this sound!! You done it again KEXP!! Like WKNC, NC State University Radio Here in Raleigh, NC that introduced me to Indie, KEXP has introduced me to more genres that I have never heard & now love!
The drummer makes soo happy :) Thank you
The first 3.15 minutes are mind-boggling. The tension is high and is dissolved by the bass line that make me crazy. The rest of the show is great. Welcome back American Football, you are geniuses!
DAMNNNNNNN! This is soooooooo gooooood!! Thank you!!!!!
This is insanely good. Imagine if these guys toured with Tortoise.
@@Koettnylle You read my mind. I want this so fucking bad.
@@Koettnylle _vibraphone orgy_
I'd sell my kidney to see this.
i wish my lawn was emo so it’d listen to american football with me
Classic
good comment
leeder thanks man i totally came up with it by myself
Crude tunes Music i think i saw it on twitter but i definitely saw it on a emo mixtape as well
@Crude tunes Music _I think the first time I saw that was on an emo mixtape_ sounds like another emo mixtape title
lo estaba esperando gracias por tantoo
That transition from stay home to Wurlitzer in 7/4 was so beautiful
The grandpas of midwest emo killin' it as always
These guys make me feel in love in a world thats loveless
Stay home makes me cry evrytime
This is so so so so good.
Awesome performance! Also, I really loved the host, she made interesting questions and was very nice!!
Soo good to have them back
bless my ears
Hermoso muchachos. Gracias.
This is such perfect "Dad Emo" that I listen to it while I cut my lawn.
awesome comment
Emo home depot
