Emerging in early 2003 with Sing the Sorrow, it's clear the molting process AFI began with Black Sails in Sunset is complete. Work on AFI's major-label bow began in August of 2002 at L.A.'s Cello Studios, with Butch Vig ( Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins) and Jerry Finn ( Green Day, Rancid) at the helm. The backing of DreamWorks meant that AFI could now hire major-league production to tweak what Puget had started. Assuming the role of principal songwriter, Puget wrapped vocalist Davey Havok's gothic tendencies in songs that put a finer point on the aggressive hardcore of AFI's earlier material, and massaged hooks from a morass of crashing rhythm, punk rock riffs, and Havok's opaque lyrics. It is merely the next step on a path that began with 1999's Black Sails in Sunset, the first album to feature guitarist Jade Puget.

Here is the full story behind AFI's hard-won success from humble high school beginnings to unimagined heights six albums later as the fire burns brighter than ever. To further keep us guessing, AFI's music is continually evolving, surprising even its most loyal followers. Lead singer Davey Havok, guitarist Jade Puget, drummer Adam Carson, and bass player Hunter have crafted a sound so distinctive it defies punk/goth/hardcore labels thrown its way. Years of near constant touring have garnered the band a reputation for passionately powerful live shows, and through pure word of mouth they have built an intensely devoted worldwide fan base. Published by Omnibus Press (HL.335879).Ī Fire Inside may have released their first chart-topping major label album Sing the Sorrow in 2003, but the Bay Area band's fire began its slow burn over a decade ago.
