Taking Back Sunday reissues ‘Louder Now’ with exclusive vinyl bonus

Taking Back Sunday Celebrates Two Decades of Rock with a Classic Reissue

Rock legends don’t just fade away; they evolve, and when a band hits a significant milestone, it’s time to celebrate the journey. Taking Back Sunday is marking a major moment this year as they celebrate the 20th anniversary of their iconic 2006 debut album, Louder Now. To mark this two-decade landmark, the band is rolling out a special vinyl reissue, offering fans an expanded experience.

This anniversary edition isn’t just about nostalgia; it’s packed with rare treasures. The reissue includes a bonus 7″ single featuring two of the album’s celebrated B-sides: “Brooklyn (If You See Something, Say Something)” and “Sleep.” For those looking for an extra splash of flair, there is an exclusive “Amazonite Swirl” vinyl variant of the LP, paired with the 7″ on standard black vinyl. This limited edition is capped at 500 copies and available for pre-order.

The journey to Louder Now was already a masterclass in raw energy. Following their 2004 release, Where You Want to Be, the debut album solidified Taking Back Sunday’s place as architects of modern emo-rock. The record showcased some of the band’s most defining tracks, including anthems like “MakeDamnSure,” “Liar (It Takes One to Know One),” and the haunting “What’s It Feel Like to Be a Ghost?”

The history of Taking Back Sunday is rich with chemistry. The sound on Louder Now was built upon incredible collaboration, featuring Adam Lazzara on lead vocals alongside Fred Mascherino on guitar/secondary vocals, Eddie Reyes on guitar, Matt Rubano on bass, and Mark O’Connell on drums.

Today, the band continues to thrive as a powerhouse live act. Both Mascherino and John Nolan are integral parts of their current lineup, bringing that signature energy to the stage. They are currently on tour with heavyweights Thrice and Saves the Day, a pairing that speaks to a shared appreciation for enduring rock legacies.

The excitement surrounding the reissue is palpable, especially as the band reflects on their legacy. Adam Lazzara expressed how much it means to have reached this milestone, noting that celebrating Louder Now with John Nolan, Fred Mascherino, and Shaun Cooper on stage is incredible. He added that the songs sound stronger live than he can remember and shared his excitement about sharing that experience with everyone.

The celebration continues with a major upcoming event: an upcoming show celebrating Louder Now at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in October, promising a massive reunion of classic rock energy. With an extensive 2026 tour schedule ahead, including dates across the country, Taking Back Sunday is clearly ready to continue their impact on music.

The band’s calendar is packed, with numerous festival sets and shows scheduled throughout the year, ensuring that the sounds of Louder Now continue to resonate for years to come.
