Multi-Platinum Maryland quartet All Time Low — Alex Gaskarth, Jack Barakat, Rian Dawson, and Zack Merrick — are celebrating two decades together as a band in 2024. To commemorate this significant milestone, the band releases The Forever Sessions Vol. 1 album on Friday, August 23, via their own imprint — Basement Noise Records — which they’re launching in partnership with Photo Finish Records.
All Time Low are playing several DMV shows this week — and tickets are still available for their date at Merriweather Post Pavilion on Saturday, August 24.
All Time Lows’s Alex Gaskarth said:
“As we continue to celebrate ATL’s legacy and our 20+ years in the music business, we’re thrilled to announce the launch of our own record label Basement Noise Records. This venture has been a long time coming and is another milestone in our continued growth as we push the limits and boundaries of what this band is capable of achieving. We’re also incredibly excited that our first official release under BNR will be a compilation of re-records spanning some of our most important and stand-out catalogue tracks, which we are affectionately calling the “Forever Sessions” (vol. 1) — recreated in a way that we hope stays true to the original recordings, but allows us to apply our skills and knowledge in the studio that we’ve acquired over the many years spent making records. It is a celebration of growth and the spirit of self-sufficiency that set this band on the path to a 20 year career FROM the very beginning. We’re so happy to share this new adventure with the fans who’ve been on this journey with us.”
The new LP features re-recordings of the band’s greatest hits from the early part of their career including “Dear Maria, Count Me In (ATL’s Version)”

All Time Low’s catalog consists of five consecutive Top 10 albums on the Billboard Top 200 in addition to picking up multi-platinum, platinum, and gold certifications. Speaking to their impact, Rolling Stone included the band’s So Wrong, It’s Right LP in their “50 Greatest Pop-Punk Albums” — coming in at No. 20, alongside albums from Bad Religion, Green Day, and The Descendants.
In 2020, All Time Low ascended to a new commercial and critical high watermark with their eighth full-length LP, Wake Up, Sunshine. Following a No. 1 debut on the Top Rock Albums chart, it spawned the biggest hit of the band’s career thus far, “Monsters” (ft. blackbear) — which clinched No. 1 on the Billboard Alternative Airplay Chart for an unprecedented 18 weeks, emerging as the longest charting song ever at the Modern Rock format.
