Anyone listen to them? I only have Sing the Sorrow and DecemberUnderground albums, but they're a pretty good band.
I'm not too big a fan of DecemberUnderground, but I suggest if you were to check these guys out I would get/download/buy the album Sing the Sorrow.
Suggested songs from Sing the Sorrow: Bleed Black, Silver and Cold, Girl's Not Grey, Paper Airplanes (Makeshift Wings)
And yes, you probably won't understand what the singer is saying most of the time, haha.

haha i really dont think that matters at all they went in a new direction and its still good music so you either like it or you dont, this whole sell out thing is a dumb label to be throwing around i think but oh well just my oppinion.Laxman 41 wrote:They soldout big time, going emo and all that stuff
i kind of pity those who only listen to those albums. AFI created possibly the greatest albums of all time before those cds.
for christ sake go pickup black sails in the sunset or very proud of ya and listen to amazing music that they have created. STS is a fuckign brilliant album but its not their only cd.
Black Sails FTW

Re: AFI
thank you for saying that Gunner
seriously, i have every afi album ever set out
seeing they're my favorite band
and even if they did change
there music keeps playing in same but different ways you know?
like each album there's a transition of sound and lyrics
thats why i love them so much
and Sing The Sorrow and Decemberunderground only became more mainstream beacuse they want people to listen to the messages they set out in the music
regardless
afi forever <3

So as your blood's running thin your time's running out,
No one will be listening not even when you shout,
When your angels turn to devils you'll finally figure out,
That no one will be with you in the end

Re: AFI
Okay, I don't like AFI.
I do have to say one thing.
Stop with the "I hate emo" comments. AFI sold out, but they didn't change the whole type of image they were portraying. They aren't an emo band. Emo has been dead since Jimmy Eat World's album Clarity. Gtfo and learn your music facts.
Also, AFI sucks, imo. I just can't stand the guys voice. They're overrated and the only thing good about them is they have decent lyrics.

but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.
So when I say I'm scared to be alone, you know I mean it,
I'm just not ready to leave my room.

Re: AFI
davey's lyrics are way better than other other artist i can think of. go read some of them and tell me they arent good .and you have to have a dictionary next to you because there are such big words in there that you need to look them up.
Let's admire the pattern forming
Murderous filigree
I'm caught in the twisting of the vine
Go ascend with ivy, climbing
Ignore and leave for me the headstone crumbling behind
I can't help my laughter as she cries
My soul brings tears to angelic eyes
Let's amend the classic story, close it so beautifully,
I'll let animosity unwind
Steal away the darkened pages, hidden so shamefully
I'll still feel the violence of the lines
I can't stand my laughter as they cry
My soul brings tears to angelic eyes
And miles away my mother cries
Omnipotence, nurturing malevolence.
oh yeah, and go find me a more intimate performance by any other band that can top this

I think JL has amazing lyrics. He's my favorite lyricist.
Also, I don't know the lyricists name, but whoever wrote the lyrics for all of Northstar's music is absolutely amazing.
but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.

lol hell no. AFI news is so unpredictable. everything is always late. they were supposed to release in EP in December, then it was supposed to be out about a month ago, then it was supposed to be released tomorrow, but basically dont count on it ever being released.
so dont believe anything until you actually see it happening
