Band: AFI (abbreviation for A Fire Inside)
Who: Weathered high-volume veteran rockers from
Ukiah, California who started to turn up the sonic heat
in 1991.
Track: BEHIND THE CLOCK
First single from their forthcoming 12th LP,
entitled Silver Bleeds The Black Sun… .
Press info: “For more than three decades, AFI has been a band in a constant state
of reinvention. No album they’ve released has sounded much like the one before it, sometimes dramatically so. The band has never gotten too comfortable in one genre
or allowed themselves to coast on any successes.
It’s an approach that has regularly challenged their audience, as their sonic identity has shifted in wild, unexpected directions every few years. But on their twelfth album, Silver Bleeds the Black Sun…, the members of AFI managed to surprise even themselves.”

Davey Havok (frontman): “I realize this is something we’ve said about our records
for years, but this record is starkly different from what we’ve done in the past, In our
33 years together, we’ve covered so much, musically, that I found myself daunted at
the prospect of doing something different, and questioning what that would be.”
Wake up, people,
the LOUD clock is
ticking right here.
