hmmm, i actually prefer Art of Drowning to this one, AoD takes this album a step further with range from furiouse hardcore/punk songs to power-alternative rock, but regardless this is a good album. Personally I think AFI are an interesting band because you can definately notice an evolution in music throughout the albums, I enjoy the first two because they are really loud, fast angry and punky, the third is afi's sound meeting with a heavier, more gothic sound, this album sees them bring back more speed and aggresion and also a hint at more technical guitar work, AoD takes Black Sails a step further just perfecting... as for StS..... while not a total attrocity its a bit of a stab in the back for long time AFi fans, cos we all know deep down that they are never going to make albums as good as these now that they have become this techno-synth-pop-goth rock hybrid band. I guess StS isnt band, its just a shame to see a good band fall into the commercial snare-trap, oh well thats my opinion anyways.
