AFI - Interview

[KiriSandman]

Davey's not gay you fucking idiots, why would it even be important in the first place.

[DEATHBYGUMMYWORMZ]

i like the "art" thats put into makeup. why cant more people (especially guys) appreciated it the same way? O.o

[MiklynXOXO]

Davey is so good looking. (;

[WrestlerMan235]

damn davey is sexy.......yes I'm a guy and i'm not gay

[sushi0802]

i love Davey he's so smart

[TheShurikenNinja]

Asthetic inhancement? Daveys a smart guy. As he said if u get AFI, u dont ever stop loving the music. If u get AFI, U get that Davey is beyond the facades of this world, n likes to make people think. AFI is God music,in a well kept discuise...AND I LOVE IT!

[ryuzahkelawliet1]

are you guys stupid its obviouse hunter and adam (bass,drummer) are the gay ones in the 80's everyone wore make up ass holes davy and jade are streight

[punksNOTdead60]

@ryuzahkelawliet1 havok is gay too. he has admitted it in the past

[hollyp275]

Is that woman Yumi Stynes?? :)

Love AFI

[klinder007]

You know what, I have an AFI tattoo and I wouldn't say they are my "favorite band right now" but the music brings a kind of nostalgia that is similar to smelling an uplifting fragrence from your past; you remember everything in an instant.

And I wouldn't change anything about my ink. Adam, Hunter, Jade and Davey... you serenaded me through the best time in my life and I am proud to wear that manifestation on my skin. Thank you <3 Kate

[513986916]

@klinder007 The way you describe their music as "nostalgic" is right on. I couldn't have said it better myself. Even the songs that I have just recently heard bring back a feeling of a memory...even if I wasn't really there.

[durkmiester54]

lol is that nat from communtiychannel lol

[ellpollito]

wtf is wrong with you fuckers 

you care more about the band members its all about the music

[persnikity12345]

Dear HoosierMF and blissfullydead89,

To each their own?

Respectfully,

persnikity12345

[vjm3]

I would argue all the time "Dude he's not gay he rocks!"

But after seeing that interview...all I can say is "Wow what a fag HE ROCKS!"

[bluecutecheeks]

god damn leave the poor man alone

[AFIforever93]

[StephanieAnn1234]

God... Davey is sexy.

[boit7]

Whats the first song?!

[afiluvr94]

@boit7

Girls Not Grey

[anota2]

2:05 à 2:14 are is the funniest shit ever. He's like, I think you made an intelligent decision tattooing our band on you, which is already too funny, and then he adds: And if not, sorry - there's such an irony in his eyes- I adore that kind of irony, makes me think of oscar wilde.

[HoosierMF]

Man they're fucking boring. That's what happens if you sell out I guess

[xXxjakeXjokerxXx]

@HoosierMF how the fuck did they sell out they became popular and they dowatthey do daveys always worn makeup hes always had cool hair hes had that lip ring since the 90s

[HoosierMF]

@xXxjakeXjokerxXx They prance around like gays on stage acting all melodramatic. Lyrics and music are the lamest generic soulless shit now. They care about getting their clothes creased. They're embarrassed about their old songs and treat them like novelties. Sellouts

[xXxjakeXjokerxXx]

@HoosierMF if therre so ashamed of thier old songs why do they sing them at thier shows and wt they cant get active on stage there suposed to just fucking sit there and be boring and hoow are they melodramatic ur just trying to ruin there name because they grew out of the old style u liked and now instead of stopin and nothaveing anything to do with there new style u wana bith and complain just grow up or shut up

[HoosierMF]

@xXxjakeXjokerxXx They treat their old songs as novelties now so it's disrespectful to the fans that actually want to hear them. They moved around fine on stage before all the gay shit started. Learn to spell

[xXxjakeXjokerxXx]

@HoosierMF ok so there ashamed of novelties and they just sung old old songs at bamboozle left u think just because they grew up a bit there not like they were there still straight edge and there still the same they still cat the same they just dress differently

[HoosierMF]

@xXxjakeXjokerxXx I couldn't give a fuck whether they're straight edge or not. They're ashamed of their past and it's embarrassing watching them try to play their old songs. Total sellouts

[xXxjakeXjokerxXx]

@HoosierMF urnot makeing any fucking sense ur saying there sellouts when there the same as they always have been they just dess diffeent and ur saying there ashamed of thier old songs and yet thy play them and u get mad because they actualy do play th old songs wat the uck dude ur just trying tocomplain about the things they do

[blissfullydead89]

@HoosierMF Honestly, do you know what they real term "sellout" means? Oh heaven forbid they stop recording seven inches with Kresge in a garage and actually move up to studios. Heaven forbid that they've every ounce of fame they got the hard way and are able to make a living. Heaven forbid they do what they want. Jesus, you know they've had the term sellout applied to them since Answer That, right? I really doubt they care about the shit people have to say and that's what is punk.

[HoosierMF]

@blissfullydead89 You're an idiot. Use real arguments instead of labelling me as a punk purist. You're just flat out lying when you say that they've been called sellouts since ATASF. They realized that you can't be a hardcore band and be mainstream so they changed their style and image consciously so they could be more popular.

[blissfullydead89]

@HoosierMF Correction, Smith has even stated that when they stopped making seven inches they were labeled sellouts. Popular? I don't even hear them on the radio and they can't even sell out small clubs anywhere besides the Bay or California shows. So popular Interscope is dropping them and not even giving them a budget for anything.Also, I'm pretty sure Fugazi was mainstream since they were in rotation on MTV. Not to mention Gallows are on a major Label.

[HoosierMF]

@blissfullydead89 The only people who make those accusations are elitists and no one takes them seriously. Popularity is relative - they are obviously more popular now compared to 1999. The fact that they are being dropped is irrelevant to their decision to sell out. I say it serves them right. Being on MTV doesn't mean you are mainstream

[blissfullydead89]

@HoosierMF Let me ask how did they sell out? what did they sell out? Because what I see is a band that has been changing their sound since the beginning. Also, if they were concerned about platinum status and money, don't you think that they would keep the formula they had when making Miss Murder and Decemberunderground? But no, they didn't do that. They made CL. A record that did horrible in Sales.

[blissfullydead89]

@HoosierMF People either grow up, or don't. People change or don't. If you want to be one of the people that feels when a hardcore band sold out once they go mainstream then so be it. You can sit in your bubble and shout sell out to everyone that wants to try something different while listening to your Rehash bands of Black Flag, Descendents, Bad Brains and Minor Threat.

[HoosierMF]

@blissfullydead89 The growing up argument is such bullshit - it has no foundation whatsoever. Please explain how they are more "mature" now.

Danzig, Melvins, Faith No More, The Damned, Napalm Death... these are bands that changed without selling out. AFI made a conscious change to be more popular. Suddenly it's all prancy dancing, big stageshows, fancy clothes and expensive videos. Disregarding their past as if it never happened. This is called selling out.

[blissfullydead89]

@HoosierMF Oh FFS. The Label pays for the vid, so that argument doesn't even involve AFI. Name a big stage show that's not the Long Beach Arena or a festival. I'm pretty sure Davey's vinyl pants and weird mesh shirts during AOD we're fucking expensive. They have 20 years of back catalog to go through in an hour and a half, the play mostly STS, 3 DU songs, 4 CL songs, DOTP, two old songs from the first albums and possibly a cover. Not only that, they always give credit to EBHXC

[blissfullydead89]

@HoosierMF And where they came from. I would agree that they sold out if Davey was doing beer commercials and Hunter was promoting Boars Head Meats. But they aren't. If you want pass blame for their so called sell out scheme then blame Nitro for telling them to leave the label because they were already too popular to for them to promote after AOD. I forgot the Dancing point. They guy still fucking dances like he did in the past. Spin Kicks, swan dives into the crowd, jumping form amps etc.

[HoosierMF]

@blissfullydead89 As I said before, popularity is relative. They don't have to be doing beer commercials to sell out. Same goes for the big shows. Your comment about vinyl pants is clutching at straws - look at what they wear now.

Spin kicks and shit is still sellout era. This is AFI when they still had balls:

watch?v=oLZAwGvtOhU

[blissfullydead89]

@HoosierMF Haha Balls when Dave was singing about cutting off his balls. The link did not work. I'm tired of arguing. Yes, SYMOE and BSITS are beast AOD was cool and STS was pretty epic despite what you think. DU was trash and CL redeemed its self. I will give you the fact that Interscope sucks, but this whole sell out You're not punk anymore is stupid and childish. "I'd rather starve than work for the man!" - lame.

[HoosierMF]

@blissfullydead89 Why are you trying to put words in my mouth? There are plenty of punk/hc bands that have done well without selling out. Sick Of It All being a great example.

When AFI play their old songs they just look like a metalcore band that's trying too hard. Jade needs a serious punch in the face. I don't know what that NA cover has to do with anything.

[blissfullydead89]

@HoosierMF Sorry I see what I need to do to make the link work. I see your Let It Be Broke and I raise you a better song. Coin Return

Such sell outs - watch?v=IBUIc-lzMI0

And just so you can wash the sell out from your perfect hardcore eyes

watch?v=F55V_ZZYCoo - if you're going to point out "when they had balls" then you need to show this era before AFI was getting too big for 924 in the mid 90's.

[hoffmanrider720]

i made the intellegent choice. forever and ever afi! tattoo on my calf

[coldheart04]

LOL i like when davey wears make up more. =) hawter

[PTFS13]

Thankyou guys

[trinigirl8skater]

[PTFS13]

[afiluvr94]

@PTFS13

[fresh098]

[6our6vampire6hearts]

Davey

Is

SO

PRETTY!

AUGH! not fair! lol I love his voice speaking and singing, its gorgeous

[bajoink0]

Yet hunter !

[TheShadow577]

is the singer a transexual? I'm not trying to troll.

[swampgliders]

Nope.

[6our6vampire6hearts]

@TheShadow577 No, hes just a very pretty man lol I know, one would think that when first seeing him. His voice is amazing though!

[OnlyMusic16]

Does anybody know who sings at the end with Davey? I LOVE his voice, it's so pretty....

[YouTubMAGGOT]

Daveys voice in kinda deep compared to his singing

[thethirdkira666]

woot afi rocks luv them for ever

[ONamoradoDaAngela]

Just met this band from the Misfits cover and found it amusing. The devillock the frontman used to wear was like a sign of "I like The Misfits a lot, just like you". I felt like that.

...

But fuck, I don´t care that they are gay. The band sounds great.

[crapaz1]

i love the way he says " for those who want out " that was bad ass

[jimigrim13]

Why you watching afi videos acidpunk if your just going to talk shit? Or are you secretly lovin this band it's ok your Gunna have to come out the closet sometime it's about the music reamber that shit for brains.

[Amusan14]

their not gay dick head

[adictpunk88]

tranny's

[afiluvr94]

then why are you waisting your time,go listen to a band you like

[adictpunk88]

theres one thing to be gay which is fine but wearing makeup is more like wanting to be a woman,., transvestite

[TheScarletleilani]

@adictpunk88 fuck you

[adictpunk88]

hahahaha

[iBwhite9272]

so i guess your putting down people like

Marilyn Manson and Ozzy Ozboure

wearing make up doesnt make you gay. almost every 80's band wore eyeliner. it is a influence from the days of glamrock. Wearing make up doesnt make you a woman. being a little bitch like you ADICTPUNK88 that makes you a woman.

[LittleEmoBoy001]

@iBwhite9272

yea besides men historically wore make up before women did.

[LongviewGD182]

@iBwhite9272 AHAHA

Really his name is ADICTPUNK ?!? Ironic, because the Addicts were one of the biggest punk bands in britain and guess what........THEY WORE MAKE UP !!!!!

[xavierissolame]

@iBwhite9272 great so you decided to stick up for a man who is obviously pro-diversity and in touch with his femininity by denigrating females...good for you idiot

[everxthinkingxdude]

@iBwhite9272 well you certainly have a respectful definition of what a woman is.

[blissfullydead89]

@adictpunk88 Wait....are you really talking about men wearing make up when your user name is Addictpunk? You do know the front man of the Addicts wore make up, right? Or are you too blind to see what's in front of you. Clown make up is still make up. You're trying to bash a cherry tomato when your own idol is a tomato as well. You fail.

[StraightEdgeV2]

Im a member of the mAFIa

[satan163]

my fart smells like a meatball sub

[senjin801]

yeah makeup isent gay, i mean as "totallysickawesome" said its when u have sex/sexually attracted to the same sex, if people want to were makeup because they like the look doesnt make them gay or emo

[irishpride20]

i didnt know the lead singer was gay...

[BlindMkd]

Cause he isn't...

[twister411]

AFI = Mafia! awesome!

[swtsacrifice]

sexy!

[999ballzout]

dressing a certain way doesnt make you homosexual also if he was gay it doesnt matter, gay people only suck if they get gay on you and are annoying

[Wessigns5]

What that f@,:;.k he is a fucking fagot?

[DissembleExhibit]

yes, yes. a "fucking fagGot" because he's conscious of how to accentuate his features.

[carbonxdating]

fuck you.

[punkindustrial]

MM tiene una camiseta de DISMANTLED !!!!

[Angel8795]

i love the way he describes how he presents himself, its so awsome

[babbychuzzle2011]

I love Davey's voice

[mrjingles77]

Was the interviewer Ruby Rose?

[blinkyboi1]

nah looks like Yumi Stynes

[heckticz]

bobupop nephersir7 u2 r idiots ........funny idiots tho lol

[AFIForever1]

first of all yah it's possible to download their songs off the internet and second of all wtf are you doing? if you're a real fan then you'll go out and BUY the cd you know help AFI out by buying their music so they keep making more cds dumb ass

[bethexohbeth]

i'm downloading their new cd RIGHT NOW!

[nephersir7]

You cannot download a CD. Its unpossible...

[carlybea]

No it's not haha, haven't you heard of torrents? xD

[bobupop]

If torrents cannot download a car, they cant download compact discs

[carlybea]

Oh, well you don't get an actual physical CD of course, but you can get the songs. Lol

[ThreeEleven89]

are you stupid?

[bobupop]

aren't me drunk?

[totallysickawesome]

your gay when you have sex with guys, not when you paint your fingernails pink, although i wouldnt paint my fingernails pink, thats just his choice i guess

[AidenBlackheart13]

jesus people, no hes not gay

[gengarrules777]

who cares either way

[Asoldierwithinme]

And you know this how?

[gabeoi]

[J195aw]

[VioletisSane]

[katiewwe123]

Is it just me, or does the lead singer remind you of CM Punk?

[wwegilmoregirl]

he kinda reminds my of CM Punk, haha i love them both

[cinderiffic]

good for davey stating that he wears make-up simply cause it looks good & besides most bands old & new wear it ... i dont really see why he needed to explain

[mrmoscow8]

mAFIa is what he ment

[captainobvious49]

what horrible questions

[younghero95]

DAVEY H ur my hero u the best AFI is my favorite band

[sickjh]

holly shit they just mention brian molko from placebo wooot my fav band,afi is also a very good band:) great bands think alike

[1995rocka]

Davey looks so cute with his hair up :3

[Parabellum13X]

He looks like such a fuckin girl, LOL.

[xxskittlez123xx]

nah, he's prob just bi, gay... or even str8

[mxvirus]

yeah, i dont understand why most people make a big deal over his sexuality...it should matter nothing to you...especially if your a fan and even if your a hater...it should matter nothing because, no way in your right mind will you have a shot with Davey or Jade!

[bobokk]

AFI are nothing compared to what they used to be. It's depressing to see them now

[PrescriptionSeven]

i agree, the boy who destroyed the world, and days of the phoenix fav songs.

[peachrocker1]

davey is NOT gay

BUT, he's bi. he n jade actually dated before. i read that in the band's biography

know THE TRUTH

[afiluvr94]

@peachrocker1 wait you read in a bio that davey was bi? wich one?

[rocketteevee]

i like the makeup. Davey wears it better than I ever could so i can't knock the dude. He's out there every night putting on a kick ass show for the fans, can't knock that, even if you hate the band.

[iluvpunkstuff]

no Davey, the make up does not look good!

[Snoopa90]

gosh every....! if he wants to be a cock sucker.... let him be a cock sucker....! we cant change him.... so whats the point in always being interested in his buisness....?

[45hohee]

in an interview with jade puget, jade anounces that Davey Havok is NOT GAY!!!!

[xBlaqkWingsx]

What's it called? So many of my friends are convinced that Davey's gay, and I try to convince them that he's not, but I don't have any proof, even though I know he's not

[natieXwitch]

what does bi or pansexual means? sorry i have some problems with my transilator please help me! p.s. I LOVE DAVEY HE IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vampiresrule]

Bisexual means you like boys -and- girls.

Pansexual means you like boys, girls, transgendred, and transvestites, I believe. Many pansexuals see themselves as 'gendre blind' apparently.

[natieXwitch]

thanks for helping me! i fixed my transilator and it doesn't suck any more =) !thanks again!!!!!!!!!

[thedazmiester]

don't u think that ure all sad he's either gay or not wot's it got to do with any of you losers, get a life and stop wasting everyones time wi ure lame ass comments

[DoomBallCrunch]

[kitN111]

hey yeah i'd like to see em too--but like they never come to like where i live--and oh yeah, davey is not gay he's like bi or something-but why do you lil' hackers care cuz he'd still be cool even if he was purple or polka dotted or something

[ssweetlynumbb]

[fancybooklearnin]

[XxDaveyXxXHavokxX]

Alright, guys. I'm not trying to be rude. I don't even know what I did wrong and people are being rude and saying I'm being rude. I have no idea how I'm being rude. I'm being rude to the people that are saying bad things about AFI.

Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. *sigh*

[BellaMarieCullen]

They're probably wondering why you seem to be screaming obscenities for no particular reason. You can't really see the original comment from this page...

[narutogirl123400]

he kind of sounds like katelen from the real world brookin that makes me wonder.......huum

[Tommydangelo79]

thats EXACTLY what i thought!

[HellChick9]

Cos you keep posting stuff like this?

[TheEliminator1992]

because you are an unbelievable douche.

[XxDaveyXxXHavokxX]

Me?! I am an unbelievable douche?? How?

Only dudes can be douches, btw. xP

[TheEliminator1992]

that sounded so...stupid.

[XxDaveyXxXHavokxX]

I know. *sigh*

How about I just don't comment on this video anymore?!

Gosh! People are getting mad at me for NO.

REASON.

[TheEliminator1992]

im sorry. really, i mean it! i wish i knew you in person that way i can give you roses as an apology. seriously! no joke!

[shinigamiryuk]

[BelaDiable]
