AJJ will release their new album Disposable Everything, on May 26th, their debut for Hopeless Records, ahead of the album’w arrival they share “Candles of Love,” which frontman Sean Bonnette says is “was plucked out of my personal life and thrown on stage by a dear friend. It’s about a wedding present.” The song’s offbeat romanticism offers a quintessentially AJJ-esque vision of the world.

Over the past couple of years, the band have toured with Joyce Manor, Against Me!, ROAR, Jeff Rosenstock, Kimya Dawson, and numerous festivals, additionally they have have confirmed their first run of dates in support of Disposable Everything starting with a Spring tour supporting The Front Bottoms followed by a headline tour with Oceanator. Just announced, alongside the tour they’ll be performing a run of intimate, acoustic in-store performances.

The group includes Sean Bonnette (guitar/vox), Ben Gallaty (bass), Preston Bryant (guitar/keys), Mark Glick (cello) and Kevin Higuchi (drums). They recorded Disposable Everything last year and it marks the first time the band went into the studio as a five-piece. “A large part of this album is the terrible thing I’ve been imagining finally happened,” singer Sean Bonnette explains. “A big theme is my mom’s death, which is something I think everyone lives in terror of. But once it happens and you’re still alive, you figure out how to move on. It is, in some weird way, our happiest record.”
