AFI (A Fire Inside) Band • Page 2

End Transmission, Too Late for Gods, The Conductor and Rewind are my favorite post-Decemberunderground songs.

 

Same. I hope it somehow finds its way into the setlist on the next tour!

 

I would basically never listen to anything new by them or any other music that sounds like them really but sing the sorrow and days of the Phoenix still do it for me so hard

 

I am on board with with every release but Crash Love. Burials is a good album, not my favorite, but it proved that they still make music I want to listen to. And Davey's live vocal performances are insane these days after his stint on Broadway. Considering the quality of their performances as a band and the few times they tour these days, they are a must see band when they come near you.

Edit: Rabbits are Roadkill is one of my favorite newer AFI songs. Always thought it was more than a b-side.

 

@Dirty Sanchez I did, but I didn't keep it around for very long. I know I liked everything on it except Wild. Couldn't get into that song at all. Sounds so messy to me.

 

The Conductor is such a great song. Just huge sounding and high energy. I haven't listened to it in over a year and I still find myself humming it regularly.

Sing the Sorrow was one of my gateway albums into harder music. Can't wait to hear what these guys release next.

 

I wasn't very high on Crash Love when it was released, but it's grown on me a lot. There are some really great songs on that thing.

 

Been listening to The Art of Drowning a lot lately. What a fucking album!

 

I think Wester might be my favorite pre-STS song

 

Here it's December every day

One of my favorites on AOD.

 

The Art Of Drowning is still their best album for me. Love it. That and Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes.

 

Black Sails is my favorite I think. Hard to choose one though. (Not counting EPs because then it's unanimously All Hallows)

 

Getting to see them play "Wester" on the 2013 tour is one of my favorite concert memories.

 

Same here... when I was talking to Davey after the show I specifically thanked him for playing that song because I was so excited.

 

I cheated and looked at their setlists beforehand, but I was still so stoked when they started playing it because I couldn't believe it, haha.

 

Okay, so, for me (not counting EPs):

STS
AOD
BSITS
Burials
SYMAOYE
ATASF
DU
VPOY
CL

 

I feel like I hold Decemberunderground in much higher regard than most of the core fanbase. The Interview, 37mm and Endlessly, She Said might all be Top 10 AFI songs for me.

 

Sing The Sorrow has the top spot for me. Second spot always rotates between The Art of Drowning and Black Sails. Then Shut Your Mouth & Open Your Eyes (feel like this is their most underrated album). After that it gets murky. I love all of their records, but I go through periods where I don't listen to Burials, Answer That, DU, etc. for awhile and where I'd rank them depends on my mood. I am a pretty big DU fan/apologist, though. I got into them after Sing The Sorrow came out so that was the first record of their's that I really anticipated and I'll always have a soft spot for that era of the band.

 

Spit in my face as I submit so I
QUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITT

 

love these guys

of the shit I know:

Sing the Sorrow>Art of Drowning>Decemberunderground>Black Sails>Burials>Crash Love

but I really love those first four

also, really loved them on the StS tour - saw them again two years ago and it was OK

finally, sick Bathory jacket, Jade Puget

 

That album is a top 3 favorite of mine for sure.

 

Sing the Sorrow and The Art of Drowning are hands down my favorites.

Not big on Crash Love as a whole but I dig Medicate, Beautiful Thieves, Veronica Sawyer Smokes.

Have only ever really listened to Burials once through and nothing stuck out at me on first listen lol.

 

random initial though I had re: Burials: are they going Katatonia on our asses

not close, but I saw a glimmer of that and it would have been amazing

 

Sing the Sorrow is probably one of my all time favorite albums

 

It's my top one. No question.
