Well, AFI are a very well known band and since they can be discussed in this forum I don't find it that surprising.

afi is my favourite band!!! they write the greatest song and lyrics davey is soooo pretty!
Sing the Sorrow is the best.

Can anyone tell me what track Dream Of Waking on art of drowning is? Cos on plyrics.com it had that song but when i checked the song listing it doesn't exist! =S

Dream of Waking is the tenth song on The Art of Drowning if you have that album on vinyl. If not, you won't get that track. Download it, because it is really one of their best songs.

the best AFI song is their cover of My Michelle(Guns N Roses). Legit. Nah, Morningstar... but My Michelle comes close

ooh thanx.

has anyone heard head like a hole (NIN cover)? it's on the grand theft auto: san andreas OST. it's different. but i like it. i reckon it's better than the original song.

It's also on Nitro's Punkzilla compilation. Oh, and I agree about it being one of their best. That's a great song. I like to listen to that and A Winter's Tale over and over and over.

[QUOTE=El_Shiznit]Even after I started looking into a lot of hardcore, SYMAOYE still remains my favorite hardcore album.




To be honest, I am too. This thread is longer than the Official Against Me! thread, and with this post I am making now, it is the same length as the Official Streetlight thread.[/QUOTE]
Agreed on hardcore

Wow to lengths O.O

I burned a cd with all their vinyl-onlies and the My Michelle and Last Caress covers and all...and the **** thing stops playing on my cd player halfway through My Michelle. I like that song. I hate my cd player. It's a piece of ****. It won't play my Bauhaus cd at all.

I just noticed this thread also has more posts than the Official Dead Kennedys and Official LoC/CV threads.







Go AFI!

Any news on the new album?

I haven't heard a thing about it.

Only Jerry Finn (no Butch Vig) is producing it. Mikey said so yesterday. He also says, "2 4 15" and no one knows what that means, but it will probably lead to more theories. Someone suggested it was "February 4, 15 songs" or "2 April, 15 songs" but those are a Saturday and Sunday, and cds only come out on Tuesdays. Ryan Wilson has also confirmed that he's doing backing vox on the new album.

Who is Ryan Wilson?

I don't know. Did a search for "Ryan Wilson" and came up with baseball, soccer, track, etc. players. Did a google search for "Ryan Wilson music" and came up with this:

Interesting...I wonder if that's the guy he was talking about.

Somehow I doubt it, but you never know.

I have noooo idea. There's also an actor. I thought maybe you guys would know who he was as you all have muuuuuch better knowledge of music than I do. Except *maybe* in ska, but even then I can't go "Jerry Dammers played keys for the Specials" well, ya know, except that it's the Specials and that one I really do know, but with any other band....f'uck if I know

omg omg omg! I was just watching the music video for Point the Blame by Catch 22 and when they showed the drummer, I saw a white A on his shirt and went "Was that an AFI shirt?" cuz it was the font...then later I saw it again and I went back and paused it. It's definitely the Porphyria shirt. Go [url=http://www.skafreaks.com/modules.php?name=Downloads2&limit=20&letter=C&order=artist%20ASC,%20dln%20ASC]here[/url] and click on "watch" next to Catch 22 Point the Blame (last one on the page) I also saw someone in the crowd on there wearing the same A-F shirt as I have.

For a while there i was obsessed with this band after discovering them thanks to the Misfits and fell in love with Sing The Sorror but never really looked at their back catalogue. I went a while no listening to the band and go into hardcore more and got some of their older albums and have loved them ever since.
What i really like about this band is the Bass Licks that Hunter uses which aren't that super techinically hard but sound amazing.

Hunter is an awesome bass player. He's one of my favorites.

Any of you guys have the String Quartet Tribute? I just bought it and it's really good. However, they need to learn to do tracklistings. Classically, they mixed up The Last Kiss and A Weathered Tome; the rest of it has only one song (Lower Your Head and Take it in the Body), I think, in the proper place.

Shizzy, do you have the unmastered versions of Spoken Word and Head Like a Hole? I'm missing those 2 mp3s. Oh, and can I have your Born in the US of A mp3? Mine doesn't have the whole song.

Nah, I don't have you first two. But I will give you Born In The USA tomorrow.

YOU need to go on soulseek more often.

So ... me and Sam are going to see AFI and laugh at them.

Oh yeah, forgot about that.

K thanks. Someone on myspace just said they have the unmastered HLAH, so I'll get that off of him and pass it on to you. Then we need to find someone with a STS test pressing to rip that mp3 ;)

Bollocks to AFI at Big Day Out. I'm front and centre for the Stooges, with a big "IGGY" carved into my chest and a huge banner saying "Iggy Pop I Want To Be Your Dog"
