It was a pioneering album where lyrical clarity was obscured and complicated by the stealth musical textures surrounding it.Like Slints Spiderland, or Codeines The White Birch, even Talk Talks Laughing Stock, American Football asked far more questions than it cared to answer. But there wasnt a band around anymore to explain it, anyway. The three young men who made the album Mike Kinsella, Steve Holmes, and Steve Lamos split up pretty much on its release.Fifteen years later, American Football reunited (now as a four-piece, with the addition of Nate Kinsella). They played far larger shows than in their original incarnation and recorded their long-anticipated second album, 2016s American Football (LP2). The release was widely praised, but the band members still felt like their best work was yet to come.I feel like the second album was us figuring it out, says Nate. For me, it wasnt quite done. I knew there was still more.Enter American Football (LP3). We put a lot of time and a lot of energy into it, says Mike. We were all thoughtful about what we wanted to put out there. Last time, it was figuring out how to use all of our different arms. This time, we were like Ok we have these arms, lets use them. The band used the same producer, Jason Cupp, and recorded the album at the same studio (Arc Studios in Omaha, Nebraska) as its predecessor yet they approached it in a markedly different way. There was a determination to let the songs breathe, to trust in ideas finding their own pace. The final result is a definite, and deliberate, stretching of the band.
