Album Notes & Community Reviews

Jawbreaker's debut album is a raw and melodic introduction to one of the most influential bands in the emo and punk scenes. Recorded while the members were still students at NYU, 'Unfun' captures a youthful energy and a budding lyrical prowess from frontman Blake Schwarzenbach. The album's blend of East Bay punk influences and introspective, emotional themes laid the groundwork for their classic sound.
