"Uncomfortably Numb" is a song by the American emo band American Football that was released as the lead single from their third eponymous LP.
The track features Mike Kinsella and Paramore vocalist Hayley Williams[1] alternating verses of a narrative. This collaboration marks a radical change in the band's sound from their mathy emo roots to a dreamier, more atmospheric sound with lyrical maturation[2][3] and noticeably refined production quality.[4]
The song in particular has received critical acclaim[5][6] and is considered an album highlight.
Alongside the song, a music video was also released which follows the narrative of the song and stars former Workaholics star Blake Anderson and pro skater Paul Rodriguez.[7]
