Disposable Everything News Today

From Sufjan Stevens to Mitski to Nicole Dollanganger to Field Medic, here are Paste's picks for the 30 best indie folk albums of 2023.

To us, the Stripe stage at this year’s When We Were Young Festival showcased some of the most underrated yet cherished acts on the lineup. One of which was Phoenix, Arizona's prolific folk punk band AJJ (formerly known as Andrew Jackson Jihad).

AJJ is most simply described as “folk punk”. Go to a show or check out some of their music and you’ll find that that’s pretty apt, but no words (or recordings) can reproduce the sheer energy at their concerts. Their performance at the Varsity ran for upwards of two hours and attracted fans riding limos and beat-up BMX bikes alike: folk attracts those of all strokes. Frontman Sean Bennett had the crowd whipped into a frenzy from the first few strained notes.

The best albums of May 2023 include the latest from The Lemon Twigs, AJJ and Mega Bog.

Disposable Everything, AJJ's 10th album, is a near-masterpiece full of clear-eyed songs about growing older, wiser and more cynical. Read our review:
