New Ways To Lose [Black], American Aquarium, Vinyl

American Aquariums' new record, New Ways To Lose, was brought to life at the historic Sunset Sound Recordings alongside the inimitable Shooter Jennings. The project finds the band returning to a cornerstone of their sound, delivering a bold, rock ’n’ roll album that reminisces their critically acclaimed Burn.Flicker.Die. With New Ways To Lose, that same sense of urgency and evolution returns, sharper and more self-assured than ever. Across its ten tracks, New Ways To Lose captures the peak of Barham's songwriting: vivid storytelling, emotional precision, and a keen eye for the unfiltered experience of being human. The album balances the pulse of a live performance with tracks like "History Repeats Itself," and the intimate closeness of "Favorite Hello." Few artists can move so seamlessly between those two sides of the coin. Enter BJ Barham.
