As adolescent boys stuck in the bearded bodies of twenty-somethings, the American Autumn is able to straddle both sides of a very tricky spectrum. They play power pop-punk, a genre of music that typically appeals to teeny-boppers, tinted (or jaded) with the sort of mandatory maturity that haunts all young adults. Whether they have made some pseudo-intellectual decision to do so or it’s com- pletely subconscious, everything that the American Autumn does is, at once, about both innocence and experience.
These are photos from concerts where The American Autumn played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
