AJJ Release New Album 'Disposable Everything'
The album is out today via Hopeless Records.

Folk-punk legends AJJ have released their newest LP, Disposable Everything, out today via Hopeless Records.
The album marks their first for the label. Disposable Everything boasts apocalyptic themes and imagery like all the best AJJ records. And while it follows the outbreak of a pandemic and AJJ’s eerily prescient January 2020 album Good Luck Everybody, the new LP is less a prophesying mirror held to a burning world than one inspired by personal grief and about what happens when you reach the other side. It’s a beautiful album that’ll make you feel better about everything while telling you just how terrible everything is at the same time.
AJJ teased the album with six critically acclaimed singles - “Disposable Everything,” “Dissonance,” “The Baby Panda,” “Death Machine,” “White Ghosts,” and “Candles of Love.” The album has garned attention from the likes of Brooklyn Vegan who ran an “Influences Feature,” Paste who gave the album a 9.2 review.
AJJ’s unparalleled live show has always been a bedrock of the band and this month has seen them on the road supporting The Front Bottoms - that tour concludes tonight with a sold-out show in New Haven, CT.
Tomorrow they kick off a short run of acoustic shows that includes a stop at New York City’s Rough Trade on May 29. The following night they start their headline tour with Oceanator and Gladie as support. They will return to New York City for a show at Webster Hall on May 31 and also stop in Cambridge, Philadelphia and Washington, DC. See below to find a show near you, and get your tickets HERE.
