About American Football
American Football is an American emo and post-rock band from Champaign, Illinois, originally active from 1997–2000 before reuniting in 2014. Known for their intricate interlocking guitar work, polyrhythmic structures, and hushed, introspective vocals, their self-titled debut album became a landmark of the emo genre.
