Biography

"The world's most worshipped band" - New York Times

After 18 years AFI have cultivated one of the most passionate followings on the planet. It was in 2003 that the band catapulted into arena status off the back of Sing The Sorrow, acclaimed as a genuine masterpiece by fans and critics alike... “Sing The Sorrow soars with the kind of melodies hit singles are made of, yet it somehow persists with AFI's esoteric darkness.” – Alternative Press

In 2006 AFI released their most ambitious effort to date, Decemberunderground, fusing their unique blend of rock with electronic, hip-hop, New Wave and pop. “There is plenty to love here, so don't be surprised when you find it has become the current soundtrack to your life.” – Billboard

Live, the band is legendary for their high impact, charismatic and energetic shows, which has moved Spin magazine to name them one of the 25 greatest live acts of all time.. AFI will now take their explosive live performance to Soundwave 2010.

AFI will be releasing their eighth studio album, Crash Love, on September 25. "Honestly I've never been more proud of an AFI record... we are thrilled to hear it come to life." – Davey Havok

AFI are amazing ive seen them before and i met davey Smile hes a great guy Smile
i went to the "december underground" tour and they played some old stuff too, i was heaps pumped when they opened with
"girls not grey" amazing stuff. I had to laugh at the girls i met in line and front of the stage that thought december underground was their first album.
The only songs they knew were prelude and miss murder and i couldnt stop laughing. Im singing to all their old songs and they had to guts to say THATS
NOT AN AFI SONG. - GOLD!
some people are pathetic haha

AFI....yeahh!!! Hope they do Fainting Spells, Medicate and Where We Used To Play...Their new album Crash Love, although not like their old stuff is still bloody fantastic and I applaud them for making this album different...and I love it...so if you don't like it go listen to someone else caus I bet they will play it at soundwave...but for all of you old fans stuck in time warp, they'll probably do some of sing the sorrow for you too. Hey don't get me wrong..I love the albums sing the sorrow and decemberunderground etc but I am glad they are doing new stuff as well and I want to hear it!

After getting Sing the Sorrow so right how the hell did they ruin their two newest albums! If they play only from Sing the Sorrow I will be enormously happy. They fell a long way after that album....should've ended on a high.

yer i saw them the first time they came to sydney at the roundhouse and they where fucking awesome and then i saw them again in sydney at hordon just after decemberunderground and and they where shit, i mean i could have just put the cd on in the car and listened to it. The Bleeders opened for them and they where ten times better.

They need to play so much more of answer that & very proud of ya they where there best albums not this new stuff.

Nah i disagree; Sing The Sorrow is definitely the best they've ever released. Perfection.

Never see them live so am interested to see how well they do.

Why post if you are posting bad comments?
It just gets the fans of the band angry. Smile
I think they will put on a good live show.
They always do
