After a 14-year hiatus, emo legends Algernon Cadwallader return with Trying Not to Have a Thought, their first album since 2011's Parrot Flies and the first to reunite their original lineup of Peter Helmis, Joe Reinhart, Colin Mahony, and Nick Tazza. This highly anticipated comeback proves that their signature blend of technical prowess, percussive playfulness, and off-kilter punk energy remains as electrifying as ever.
The album's title captures the band's dual approach of resisting mental overwhelm while letting their natural chemistry guide their rejuvenated sound. Trying Not to Have a Thought showcases why emo was never just about adolescent angst, but about the purity of feeling alive in the present moment. This indie exclusive opaque yellow vinyl edition makes it an essential addition for collectors seeking a piece of emo history reimagined for a new era.
