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&nbsp;Rolling Stone’s “40 Greatest Emo Albums of All Time”&nbsp;list at #6, with&nbsp;Pitchfork&nbsp;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 album’s release, Polyvinyl is thrilled to announce&nbsp;American Football (Covers), a genre-spanning covers album that highlights the importance and wide-ranging influence of the band’s debut. The album features covers of each song by critically acclaimed acts such as&nbsp;Iron &amp; Wine, Ethel Cain, Blondshell, Manchester Orchestra, Novo Amor, Lowswimmer, Yvette Young,&nbsp;and others. Each cover wonderfully highlights the beauty and importance of this noteworthy debut while affirming the continued interest in this unexpected groundswell of cultural prominence.&nbsp;
