131 is the fourth studio album by American rock band Emarosa. The album was released on July 8, 2016, through Hopeless Records and was produced by Casey Bates.[4] It is the band's first album to be released on this label. It is also the last album to feature founding keyboardist Jordan Stewart and the first to feature rhythm guitarist Matthew Marcellus, who has been touring with the band since 2014. The sculpture image featuring on the album cover and also on other merchandise to promote the album is made by artist Beth Cavener.
131 shows Emarosa completing the move to alternative rock that they began with Versus two years earlier, when Bradley Walden joined as frontman and co-songwriter. None of the band's original post-hardcore style is present here.[2]
