everyone for ten minutes

Description

Bleachers, led by Jack Antonoff, returns with a fifth album rooted in New Jersey. Bleachers marks its comeback with a fifth studio album, "everyone for ten minutes," set to be released on May 22, 2026. Led by Jack Antonoff, Bleachers continues its exploration of expansive and emotional pop rock, often described as both unifying and deeply human. Over the years, the band has established itself with a recognizable sound identity, blending live energy, a sense of melody, and collective intensity. This new album, featuring the first single "you and forever," presents itself as an artistic culmination. The writing gains maturity, while the production showcases a richer palette of influences, ranging from folk to soul to pop. The whole is infused with themes of optimism, love, and hope, in an approach that is both intimate and expansive. The atmosphere of New Jersey, deeply embedded in the band's DNA, once again permeates the record. This duality between closeness and distance from New York City fuels a contrasting aesthetic, where nostalgia, tension, and bright impulses meet.
