I'm just starting to get back into these guys, Synthesia and leaving song part 2 are just tracks period, and the rest of the cd is extremely solid. I don't really know what I'd rate this though :

Album Rating: 4.5

I've never heard Synthesia... but the Leaving Song pt. 2 is one of the better tracks on this album. But very true, this cd is extremely solid, one of my favorite 4.5ers

This is a really bad record...er band. You may wonder why I would even speak, honestly Its because the site says I Give too many 5's (because I only rated records I loved) so now I'm diversifying.



One thing that was weird for me was the mention that the pop-ness of this angered their "punk" fans. Now I don't get it because this is not a punk band its a pop band. they don't have punk fans. I'm not a punk and I'm not saying there is anything wrong with pop. I am just saying that punks live in squats and eat out of dumpsters (not exclusively either mind you), punks are disenfranchised and fed up, but most of all punks are anti establishment system fucking people who dont support major label artists. For whatever thats worth, better or worse this band by default can not have punk fans.This Message Edited On 05.06.07This Message Edited On 05.06.07This Message Edited On 05.06.07

Really mortimerjstyles, you sound like you have no idea of what you are talking about. A.F.I. does have punk fans. And for that matter punks don't live in squats, and eat out of dumpsters. How fucking dumb and ignorant are you.

i know a lot of punks who like afi, and a lot of punks who recently stopped liking afi because they pretty much changed their style of music from what their old fans liked to what would be much more accessible

personally, i think that this album is enjoyable, i dont enjoy the departure from their older material, but a punk fan can still appreciate this record and this band, no doubt about that

you are really ignorant, mortimerjstyles

This is one of the greatest records Ive ever heard in my entire life. It changed the way I looked at music. Before, I was just an angry dumb kid who listening to bland metal and I wore like these stupid cargos and whatever around. I had a huge chip on my shoulder.

But AFI showed that you can have music, good music, covered in heart-felt lyrics. Something thats really emotional and real. All of a sudden, I didnt feel angry anymore, but I felt like someone finally understood me. Incredible. Pure incredible.

lol

This is great so far, especially the singles, which are awesome.



But hopefully this will grow on me a bit more.
