It’s also the first with their original lineup—vocalist-bassist Peter Helmis, guitarists Joe Reinhart and Colin Mahony, and drummer Nick Tazza—since Algernon’s seminal 2008 debut, Some Kind of Cadwallader. Shortly after that album was recorded—and long before it was heralded as a lodestar for the 2010s “emo revival”—Tazza and Mahony departed the band. Despite their looming influence on the aforementioned “revival,” Algernon broke up in 2012 following the release of Parrot Flies and remained stubbornly deceased until their fiendishly anticipated resurrection in 2022.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlgernon Cadwallader are certainly cognizant of their cult legacy, a status that's transformed their fanbase into a unique convergence of graying punk lifers and fresh-faced teens who first discovered “midwest emo” on TikTok.

The album’s title perfectly captures that dual approach: the effort to resist being mentally bogged down by the bottomless list of daily atrocities, and the band’s decision to let their unspoken connection guide this rejuvenated take on their classic sound. “This is just what comes out of us when these four people get in a room,” Helmis says. And this record is exactly that: an Algernon Cadwallader album that's leisurely, intensely, tremendously their own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Saddle Creek","offers":[{"title":"LP - Opaque Sharpie Yellow","offer_id":53140143276363,"sku":"R7804-2914","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":53140143309131,"sku":"R7804-4194","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP - Opaque White Lie","offer_id":53140143341899,"sku":"R7804-7538","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/201375059327.jpg?v=1754669655"},{"product_id":"parrot-flies","title":"Parrot Flies","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor the ten-year anniversary of Algernon Cadwallader's first full length, \u003cem\u003eSome Kind of Cadwallader\u003c\/em\u003e, Lauren Records and Asian Man Records are reissuing the record along with their second album, \u003cem\u003eParrot Flies\u003c\/em\u003e (2011), and a new self-titled collection LP.
