I love old AFI, and especially this cd, but I'm really aggravated about people bitching about their new music.. it's their choice. They didn't sell out.. it's just how their music changed over the years. Hate or appreciate; They don't care, nor do I.
Art of Drowning is their best album, and this is their best song... i'm a sucker for 'Whoas' Then STS, then All Hallows e.p (can't forget that, it was sick!) then Black Sails, Then DU. then shut your mouth, and very proud of ya, then crash love.... Black Sails to Sing the Sorrow was such a great period for them, wish i'd seen them touring Sing the Sorrow, Miseria Cantare is the best intro ever...
1. Answer That and Stay Fashionable (will always be my favorite, and it's really roots of a lot of very good punk artists)
2. Black Sails in the Sunset
3. The Art of Drowning
4. Very Proud of Ya
5. Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes
6. Sing the Sorrow
I refuse to even put decemberunderground or Crash Love on that list, because they're not the AFI I grew up with and love. Anyone saying they're good now has obviously never listened to their old shit and don't truly appreciate their punk roots.
3.very proud of ya some art of drowning was ok but everything else i couldnt tell you... if theres anything old and dope i missed let me know so i can check it outt
AFI have become my role models. They helped me through so many things... I was going to commit suicide, but their music saved me, because I finally felt someone knew what I felt like, had been through what I'd been through, and actually CARED for once. They've become my role models; I'm Straight Edge because of them, and I write music and poetry because of them. They gave me a goal, they gave me a place to hide from the cruelty of the world: Their music.
ok, now I feel better. I was giving Decemberunderground another listening to...and I just had to come and listen to this song. ugh, I felt so unclean and sad but I feel better now. no wonder I only listened to that album once and never again.
Idk what anybody says lol. I've been listening to the band for a good while and all the albums are pretty good. I'm not doin' any lame ass complaining and bitching cuz I'm mature enough to see that it's just stupid to do that. AFI will always be good. Just givem more time.
I first saw AFI in 1997 when I was in 7th grade. Every album up to The Art Of Drowning was and will always be amazing to me. This album alone got me through some crazy shit some how.
whys everyone hating on crash love? yea it was a big jump from December underground and an even bigger step from there older stuff but its still a great album full of so much more meaning i mean just the name loving something even though its pain and completely self destructive its such classic afi but with a new twist
@FamiPunk i'd change it a bit... 4: Crash Love 5: Decemberunderground 6:Shut your Mouth and i haven't listened to much of the other two. just not as big of a fan of them without jade
@MakeshiftWings39 DU has a lot of great songs on it. But some people get worked up over that album/era for trivial bullshit reasons that aren't relevant to anything. Whatever.
Anyway, this is my favorite song off Art of Drowning. It's too bad it was never played live. There's been whispers that it was played once or twice on the AoD tour, but there's no known recording or even a date. Lame.
@FamiPunk As many allready said STS was the peak of AFI. Such a epic album. From this point it could sadly go only down. But thats life :-) You cant create mastepiece every day.
@Aris94 I'm not going to argue. I know I like all of AFI, just some of it more than others, like most people like certain things more than other things. You're not cool because you try and act like you know other people better than they do themselves. Fuck off.
@FamiPunk I guess seeing someone write "Decemberunderground or Crash Love, they both blow it" clearly means that they "like all of AFI." Yea, I think if you're trying to defend yourself there, I know you better than you do, dumbass.
@FamiPunk Crash Love is pretty good imo, it's just different. People who love Answer That/Shut Your Mouth probably look at Sing The Sorrow the same way STS fans look at CL. Decemberunderground is a disgrace though.
@FamiPunk Ahh man I can't hate on you, but I have to knock your number one to below Shut Your Mouth. And BTW, you should have their EP albums in there too, Fall Children and also the A Fire Inside EP. I can't knock you man, I was a fan until STS, and I sort of liked it but could sense the direction they were taking, after that I barely played their new stuff.
@AWSKAR It's cool man. We all have different tastes. I would have put the EPs but there wasn't enough space. Since I put that list I've grown a lot more accustomed to DU and CL, they're both decent albums in their own right, CL more so than DU. I like Crash Love better because it's a more genuine and heartfelt album - DU was kind of a popularity and money stab. DU is still okay, I like the cool atmospheric stuff they put in it. I still have to hold StS is the best though.
@HeadlessCorpse89 AFI in general helped me through some rough patches in this old life where I was feeling pretty depressed. Often times when you get really involved in the music they become more than a great band, they sort of become role models or they give you goals to try to achieve to in your own life. For instance, I used to weigh over 200 Pounds, but now I'm down to 145 because of them. Also, be sure to tell them that, Davey seemed to really care when I met him and told him my story.
wow, everybody is arguing over everyone's opinion because it's not the same as their own. so what if afi's music has dramatically changed.. if you don't like their new stuff so what, nobody cares because there is nothing you, or anyone else, can do about it. no band is going to play the same type of music for 20 years, it gets old after about 10. so quit complaining because it's getting annoying and nobody wants to listen to you.
@ohnoitstako wrong social distortion bad religon nofx sound pretty much the same through out the yrs but ya everyones entitled to there own opinion!!! but ya its hard not to complain when pple grow up to a type of sound and all the sudden between sing the sorrow and du it was a drastic change!!!! cuz sing the sorrow had a anger then du changed labels and he sounds so soft no energy there are many reasons its hard to accept change!!!
I love all these kids yelling about them being sellouts. Right, because you still like the same things from when you were 10 right? You might, you might not. People get old , shit changes. And, last I checked, bands were made up of people, not robots that pump out the exact same sound year after year.
All of you deluded fools, AFI will never be a tenth of the band they once where. Davey cant hack it any more, sadly a formerly great band continues only to disgrace its former great self and its former true fans.
Because I'm right and you're a fool. It's simple fact, they aren't and will not ever be anywhere near as good a band as they used to be. You missed out, unlucky. But they are only good for memorial sake, the new shit they spew out is drivel, weak as fuck for teeny bopper idiots like yourself.
@DaveyH123 I love all their material, but I do like their old stuff better. Yeah, I'm only 16, but I can't help that. I can't make you change your mind, but please try not to piss off us younger fans. I'm not one of those little teens that are all "OMGZ, JADE'S SO HAWT!!". I actually respect the band, and everything they've put out for their fans.
You can reply to this comment, but I'm done. I'm tired of arguing. I'm not being a coward, I'm just done.
The band doesn't respect their fans, they are masters at taking advantage of the devoted following they used to enjoy. The band. the movement, the vibe is hollow now, living of past glories. Look, yes you're 16 so you were unable to be there when it was worth it. But classic AFI isn't emo shit and by the looks of you, that's what you like, emo, shit. You are indicative of what's wrong with the way afi went, appealing to teeny emo girls and losing any semblance of credibility.
when AFI reslised carsh love it sounded deffintly a different style of music just rock. they were a punk rock band and now they are rock. hey but every band changes. so they had to change. AFI is AFI and they will write songs that they think there fans will like. i love AFI and i always will.
there is no song on this album that i don't enjoy listening to.........who am i kidding, there is no afi song from shut ur mouth and on that i dont enjoy listening to :D
We will just have to disagree, i think their late material cant touch black sails or shtu your mouth. I am hoping for a re-birth from AFI.. main stream or not.
While it is true AFI's albums have shown their evolution, it is obvious that big record labels like Dreamworks kill talent. They are more interested in quantity, not quality. Just look at Rise Against. While on Fat, they were amazing, now...they have captured a new audience of teenie boppers. Both AFI and Rise Against have the capability to produce amazing material that would live forever... but because of their business choices they are doomed to radio pop until they fade away,
@Murdokk73:: Dreamworks kill talent? No, I have to disagree with you. Sing the Sorrow is an AMAZING album. Yes, AFI's music did evolve, but for the better. Each album gets better and better, IMO. And just like someone else pointed out, their music has been changing after every album.
Of course, most people are going to like the older stuff, but AFI isn't gonna be putting the same music out that they were back in the early 90's, that will put a big restriction on AFI's music. They want to grow.
True honestly the biggest jump in their music was from sing the sorrow to december underground, I havent been able to hear alot of their new stuff. But this is my favorite album from them
AFIS BEST ALBUMS from start to art of drowning and a couple songs off sing the sorrow they fail hard now and fuck all you pussies who think different your like 11 teen years old so who cares
o come on. uve got to admit some of their songs from crash love are really good. i didnt like DU at all. but crash love IS good even though theyr old stuff is really good too
All of AFI is brilliant.They've always had a meaning.Sort of a comforting darkness.And please no one call that emo...Because I wouldn't dare cut myself,and I don't get depressed...I forget easily about bad things.
AFI did rule the 90's. But C'mon, cut them some slack, They've been a band since 1991. Evolving is bound to happen. Am I saying I hate "old" AFI, absolutely not. Like I've said before, there is no "old" or "new" AFI. There is only AFI. They will keep doing what they do best, music.
I agree. Art of Drowning and Black Sails are tied for my favorite. However I LOVE Sing the Sorrow. I think most people think it's their best because it's their breakthrough album
Black Sails, Art Of Drowning, and Sing The Sorrow are a three way tie for me, i have to say Crash Love comes in second, then Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes, with the others theres no particular order. I like the middle stuff and to a lesser extent the later stuff because its VERY sophisticated, and extremely well written, and i like the instrumentals a lot better after Jade and Hunter Joined the Band. Wait I forgot the EPs... Well All Hallows is up there for sure.
@Kakashi67468 See i actually like theyre middle stuff best, from BSITS to STS, and DU and CL are in second and the first three are in last. its not that i dont love all of them, i do, theyre all perfect, and beautiful albums, but as you said, it is what it is. I cant help what i prefer i guess.
@Kakashi67468 i have to put sing the sorrow and art for drowning in the top spots followed by black sails, but id put crash love above december underground (just cuz of the Bside songs)
well i say fuck you, because 20 years from now a teenage kid is going to listen to this album and say holy shit what the F@$## is this , this is AMAZING
Well this album is where most people see the transition. So a lot of people mark this as the beginning of the "new" AFI. I personally don't, but a lot of people do.
yah i understand what you are saying. i think every afi cd was a little bit different from the previous one, but the cd that made the biggest change and the transition into new afi is sing the sorrow.
i thought so. he deffenently copied nicks voice though. which i dont like. his voice is way too smooth for pyschobilly. one of the reason i dont like tiger army
I love this album to death. The sound is just unrivaled. I think AFI really hit what they were going for, dead on. They try something different every time, which is why it's hard to compare albums, but the vibe from this one is just....Wow
wtf! people can say all they want whos a fan or not, but that doesnt make u not a fan, miss murder is alright, DU is alright, am i not a fan just cuz i dont absolutely adore all their music? no im just not an obsessive fan
I think i get what your saying and i agree. I'm just going to delete the whole comment war below, i personally hate arguments, and that's why i made the proper responce as i did, without insulting anybody, but getting my point across.
if you only like old afi, your not an afi fan. to be an afi fan you gata like all there stuff like i do. if you only like answer that stay fashionable - black sales or drowning, your just a fan of some albums. but me, im afi addict from 1992- 2009 (92 was when they formed, dont give me crap that there 1st real album was 97, i know)
I agree 100%, but its not that some people don't like their new, or current direction, its that their disappointed that its not punk, and as they've (AFI) said hundreds of times, they don't want every album to stay the same, thats why i enjoy all eras of afi but people are entitled to their opinion i suppose. Good Comment.
I has a bucket. Noo, they be stealin my bucket!

wow, everybody is arguing over everyone's opinion because it's not the same as their own. so what if afi's music has dramatically changed.. if you don't like their new stuff so what, nobody cares because there is nothing you, or anyone else, can do about it. no band is going to play the same type of music for 20 years, it gets old after about 10. so quit complaining because it's getting annoying and nobody wants to listen to you.

@ohnoitstako wrong social distortion bad religon nofx sound pretty much the same through out the yrs but ya everyones entitled to there own opinion!!! but ya its hard not to complain when pple grow up to a type of sound and all the sudden between sing the sorrow and du it was a drastic change!!!! cuz sing the sorrow had a anger then du changed labels and he sounds so soft no energy there are many reasons its hard to accept change!!!

I love all these kids yelling about them being sellouts. Right, because you still like the same things from when you were 10 right? You might, you might not. People get old , shit changes. And, last I checked, bands were made up of people, not robots that pump out the exact same sound year after year.

All of you deluded fools, AFI will never be a tenth of the band they once where. Davey cant hack it any more, sadly a formerly great band continues only to disgrace its former great self and its former true fans.

Because I'm right and you're a fool. It's simple fact, they aren't and will not ever be anywhere near as good a band as they used to be. You missed out, unlucky. But they are only good for memorial sake, the new shit they spew out is drivel, weak as fuck for teeny bopper idiots like yourself.
DaveyH123 1 year ago
@DaveyH123 I love all their material, but I do like their old stuff better. Yeah, I'm only 16, but I can't help that. I can't make you change your mind, but please try not to piss off us younger fans. I'm not one of those little teens that are all "OMGZ, JADE'S SO HAWT!!". I actually respect the band, and everything they've put out for their fans.
You can reply to this comment, but I'm done. I'm tired of arguing. I'm not being a coward, I'm just done.
Have a nice day =)

@xBlaqkWingsx
The band doesn't respect their fans, they are masters at taking advantage of the devoted following they used to enjoy. The band. the movement, the vibe is hollow now, living of past glories. Look, yes you're 16 so you were unable to be there when it was worth it. But classic AFI isn't emo shit and by the looks of you, that's what you like, emo, shit. You are indicative of what's wrong with the way afi went, appealing to teeny emo girls and losing any semblance of credibility.
DaveyH123 1 year ago
when AFI reslised carsh love it sounded deffintly a different style of music just rock. they were a punk rock band and now they are rock. hey but every band changes. so they had to change. AFI is AFI and they will write songs that they think there fans will like. i love AFI and i always will.

I still like AFI, and Crash Love is a great album. However, as I prefer these sort of cryptic, almost poetical lyrics, I miss the old days (pre-DU).
Still, I support the band's growth, both lyrically and musically; however, these songs and lyrics, to me, are fond memories.

xxmortified 1 year ago
While it is true AFI's albums have shown their evolution, it is obvious that big record labels like Dreamworks kill talent. They are more interested in quantity, not quality. Just look at Rise Against. While on Fat, they were amazing, now...they have captured a new audience of teenie boppers. Both AFI and Rise Against have the capability to produce amazing material that would live forever... but because of their business choices they are doomed to radio pop until they fade away,
Murdokk73 1 year ago
@Murdokk73:: Dreamworks kill talent? No, I have to disagree with you. Sing the Sorrow is an AMAZING album. Yes, AFI's music did evolve, but for the better. Each album gets better and better, IMO. And just like someone else pointed out, their music has been changing after every album.
Of course, most people are going to like the older stuff, but AFI isn't gonna be putting the same music out that they were back in the early 90's, that will put a big restriction on AFI's music. They want to grow.

AFI did rule the 90's. But C'mon, cut them some slack, They've been a band since 1991. Evolving is bound to happen. Am I saying I hate "old" AFI, absolutely not. Like I've said before, there is no "old" or "new" AFI. There is only AFI. They will keep doing what they do best, music.

GToul13 2 years ago
Black Sails, Art Of Drowning, and Sing The Sorrow are a three way tie for me, i have to say Crash Love comes in second, then Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes, with the others theres no particular order. I like the middle stuff and to a lesser extent the later stuff because its VERY sophisticated, and extremely well written, and i like the instrumentals a lot better after Jade and Hunter Joined the Band. Wait I forgot the EPs... Well All Hallows is up there for sure.

I agree 100%, but its not that some people don't like their new, or current direction, its that their disappointed that its not punk, and as they've (AFI) said hundreds of times, they don't want every album to stay the same, thats why i enjoy all eras of afi but people are entitled to their opinion i suppose. Good Comment.
