Begging For Trouble just needed to go somewhere then it would have been incredible omg, still really good though

Looking Tragic is, i gotta say, probs one of the weakest AFI tracks I've ever heard : / it especially doesn't go anywhere. decent chorus and decently fun song but ehh not feeling it. was very happy it wasn't the only track we got today

i was much more intrigued with the sound of the first 2 actually sounding like a progression for the band/building off Missing Man

these 2 are a bit concerning considering their shared problem despite liking one of them. I also am not a fan of how short they are. gahhhh well, all we can do is wait



1 Escape From LA

2 Twisted Tongues

3 Begging For Trouble

4 Looking Tragic

I liked the way way Begging for Trouble sounded, but yeah, it just....ended. Looking Tragic was okay, but seemed to suffer the same fate. Why aren't they fleshing some of these songs out?

Looking Tragic was one of the worst AFI songs I have heard, I sincerely don't want to relisten ever.



Begging for Trouble is great, really enjoyed the melodies, lyrics (super Burials like) and that bouncing bass line. Definitely could have fleshed it out more, but great quick hitting solid song.



They have hit well on 3/4 singles, still looking forward to the album but Looking Tragic was such a clunker that I am slightly more weary. I also really dislike bands releasing excessive singles prior to the release especially when it is so far out.

yeah if it was out in like April, i'd be fine but fuck what if we just keep getting more?



Begging For Trouble seriously could have been AMAZING, it's just such a nice sounding song.



i will say, lyrically I like them both a lot so that's something.

Pretty pumped for the new record still tbh. I like all 4 songs to varying degrees.

Looking Tragic has an almost brit-pop feel. I dig.

I listened to it twice so far, and both times it ended I don't remember what happened. It's like the songs comes and goes, and I have no good memories of the time listening to it. It has nothing memorable about it.

I have a hunch that there will be some killer b-sides from the 'Bodies' session.
