Pitchfork calls the album "a touchstone of Midwestern emo," while Vulture placed "Little League" at #3 on their 100 Greatest Emo Songs of All Time list.
The album of different artists coving their 1999 debut showcases how American Football's music has influenced a wide range of artists across different genres.
Written by Giannascoli and recorded across various locations in Philadelphia and New York, the album was co-produced alongside his longtime collaborator Jacob Portrait.
After releasing their self-titled debut album in 1999, 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.
American Football performed two sold out shows at the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles, part of the band's 25th anniversary tour for their self-titled debut album.
