Gone Now is the second studio album by American indie pop act Bleachers, released on June 2, 2017.[3][4] The album deals with themes of growing old, as well as struggling with losing people in life, told over the course of day and a lifetime.[5] It takes inspiration from the pop sounds of the 1980s, mixed with a modern view.
The cover features Antonoff wearing a white prince outfit with his hand placed over his heart in a Polaroid-style frame. According to Antonoff, the photo of himself on the cover is a view of what he might look like if he were dead. In a series of videos breaking down the album, he stated:
That's why on the cover -- everyone's like, "what are you, a dictator?" And I'm like no, man, I'm dead. I'm supposed to be dead. I thought if I was dead, what would I look like? I'd be black and white, and I'd be regal, and dressed up. That's the picture you'd have on a mantel if I wasn't here anymore.[6]
The outfit was also used on the tour for Gone Now.[7]
Receptionedit

Gone Now received mixed reviews. While some praised its ambitious production and anthemic singles like "Don't Take the Money," others found it uneven and overly indulgent. [19]
Antonoff's lyrical themes were criticized for feeling hollow, detracting from the album's overall impact.[20] Despite moments of more nuance, such as tracks like "All My Heroes," the album's narrative coherence was questioned.[21]
Terrible Thrills, Vol. 3 is the second compilation album by American indie pop act Bleachers, released as a companion to Gone Now by RCA Records exclusively as a set of four 7-inch singles. The first single, a cover of "Let's Get Married" performed by Mitski, was released in March 2019; all subsequent singles were released on a monthly basis thereafter. Following Terrible Thrills, Vol. 2 (2015), it is a cover album composed of songs from Bleachers' second studio album covered by female artists, as well as rare songs and demos.[30]
