Why you'll love it

Jejune's second and final album, co-produced with Ted Leo of Chisel, remastered by Numero across two white LPs. Arabella Harrison and Joe Guevara trade vocals over the shifting dynamics that made the band a quiet favourite of the late-90s emo scene.

About the album

The Boston trio of Arabella Harrison, Joe Guevara and Chris Vanacore first put out This Afternoon's Malady on Big Wheel Recreation in 1998. Reviews were mixed at the time, partly because "emo" was still a dirty word, but the record has aged far better than the label did.

Numero's reissue follows its Jejune anthology Wait A Lifetime, and gives the album the sound it always deserved.

Also at Kops: more Punk / Metal
