Description
BrooklynVegan has teamed up with Ontario post-hardcore heroes Alexisonfire for our first-ever special edition magazine and exclusive vinyl pressings.
Otherness is pressed on special Black/White Marble vinyl limited to only 500 copies, and comes with the BrooklynVegan special $20-value, 80-page magazine with album matched die-cut cover.
The 80-page magazine, written by BrooklynVegan editor Andrew Sacher, features a die cut cover with a color-matched AOF Heart Skull logo printed on vellum, and tells the career-spanning story of Alexisonfire, from their formation to their swift rise in popularity to their breakup to their reunion, with deep dives into every album from their 2002 self-titled debut through their 2022 comeback album Otherness. It features new, exclusive interviews with all five band members (George Pettit, Dallas Green, Wade MacNeil, Chris Steele, and Jordan Hastings), as well as members of Hot Water Music, Fucked Up, Rise Against, Moneen, Boys Night Out, Sum 41, Billy Talent, and more.
After breaking up in 2012 with no intention of ever looking back, Alexisonfire reunited in 2015, and the rejuvenated band gradually started to write new music together again. In 2022, that resulted in Otherness, the band's first album in 13 years and yet another step forward. Otherness wasn't about trying to relive Alexisonfire's glory days; it was about creating even more glorious ones. It's the album that this band needed, wanted, and could have only made at that point in their career, two decades after their formation. It's the kind of reunion album that truly adds to a band's legacy.
All five AOF studio albums are also available in a limited-to-1000 box set (with different color vinyl, a live album, a print, magazine & more) and individually (on black/white marble vinyl, limited to 500 copies each, and bundled with the version of the magazine whose cover art matches the album it's packaged with).
