The Juliana Theory

As genre-defining and genre-bending as ever, alt-emo-pop pioneers The Juliana Theory enter their next era from a position of both experience and excitement beginning with their powerfully defined single “Playback ‘99 (Burn The Cassette Deck).” “Playback...” kicks off the first of 3 intertwined EP’s slated for release on Equal Vision Records in 2022 and 2023 - “Still The Same Kids Pt. 1, 2, and 3” respectively with Pt. 1 releasing May 6, 2022. “Still The Same Kids Pt. 1” features 4 songs that fully embrace the strengths of the band’s catalog of underground anthems without sacrificing an ounce of who the duo is now. Truth be told, The Juliana Theory always owed as much to The Beatles as to Sunny Deal Real Estate, with shades and shimmers of everything from Depeche Mode and Tears For Fears to The Foo Fighters in their arsenal. Formed in 1997 and honored as “timeless,” and even “legendary” by media outlets Billboard, BrooklynVegan, Flood Magazine and beyond, TJT is known widely as innovators in the guitar-driven-pop world. The band combined fugazi-esque guitars and catchy bass-lines with overtly power pop hooks along with synths and drum machine flourishes years before bands like The 1975 followed a similar formula to superstardom.
