Chris Steele is such a beautiful soul. Arguably, he had the most to lose when AOF split, everyone else had other projects. But Steele lives every performance like it's his last

I took my 8 year old son to see his favourite band last summer at the Calgary stampede. Alexis on fire was all he could scream through tears on my shoulders while they walked out on stage. Then he sang every word he knows so loud he lost his voice for the next few days. Proud father moment getting to share with him what I grew up on.

Agreed, No Transitory getting featured on a big shiny tunes album was a big deal for how heavy they were at the time

Great interview with these guys and having George interveiw them made it so much better.

Justo lo que necesitaba, Alexisonfire para rato.

So excited for the show in Boston.

This would have to be the first 30 min interview I have watched all of. Great work #theonlybandever will always have the warmest place in my heart for you guys ♥️

5 mins into this interview and I am so glad to see these guys back together like this!! I'm clinging to the hope that at some point they say they are making another EP or LP. 31 mins left, fingers crossed x

I've been blessed in that I have seen them 2 times in the last couple years since they started touring again. I've been to alot of shows and genres. This band live is incredible and the most talented underrated band ever. They are amazing I cried after I saw them live because I didnt want it to be over and I grew up singing the songs with my friends in parking lots. They are amazing and live there are no words. Thank you so much for the music and thank you for giving me the 2 closest things to a religious or out of body experience I will ever have. I love you

Sound amazing!

I"m so glad they are back, I hope they know that they never had to leave. As a fan I'm super okay with taking a break and refreshing your mind and soul but they never had to quit like they did, take your time guys life is long and everyone is cool with the process. Good old Canadian guys

And they’re blessing us with new full length album after all, beyond stoked boys!

This is ahhhsome. Thanks fellers

stormbo is such a good interviewer !

Best interview ever

Amazing interview, loved this so much. I remember seeing the post on their Facebook back in 2012 about them calling it a day and my heart sank! .... So take your time guys, but when you do get on the road, get yourselves to Dublin please !!

Wow Strombo, first time watching your channel, easily one of the best interviews ive ever seen, the show ruled too keep it up!!

YES!

That was just the best.

Yes!!!

You guys saved my life. ❤

I still remember these guys on Much Music!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Wow, these guys are so articulate and intellectual. Much love AOF!

Damn I just stumbled upon the actual show then this interview....had no idea the guys were back together. Probably my favorite live show I've found on KZread, easily top 5 all time favorites.

What I like to see. As a fan, you guys work together. Back when it started that brother hood wasn't captured. You were well spaced on stage everyone doing their own thing. You would work for the show independent. You all loved doing it. Then after seeing the show at Copps How you all were doing something together on stage as a team. I was like wow. Why did they end it. Now I see everyone isn't afraid to talk, and show that here. In studio for an interview and everyone has a say together. Which is Awesome! That is Alexisonfire and to see you guys all recognize it and understand that work towards a mutual agreement. All 5 people have to say yes. This is next album stuff the life line for the whole band and I am excited because I feel the next albums songs will evolve from each of those lessons. Which is epic and I am excited to hear it. Cause I have a good feeling. It will keep the core values of the band ip, but be that album that everyone can relate to OG fans new fans and yes fans like me you picked up in between. Which is nice when that album comes and just pick away at it with no contract and honestly. It good thing for music because you can choose to sell a list of songs as a whole album to be pressed and released if you go that way.

'Promises to never let you down again' Even if joking I wish they keep this one haha

Drugs and cigarettes happened lol. Well it's easy to just say "drugs" but I mean it's probably not a far off assumption. He does *sound* rough more than looking it, although I guess he looks a bit rough too, not quite ready to keel over as you put it haha but to me he looks and sounds like he's spent the last 15 years of his life partying and playing music, doing drugs and smoking too much. Also let's not forget this guy is the lead vocalist for a hardcore band i'm pretty sure and also the singer for another punk band i wanna say, on top of AOF again now, so that's probably a major reason for the marked hoarseness of his voice.

I'm sure his little trolling ways will find this comment too. I feel like Ally from a "Star is born". I don't play my original songs for anyone. Cause when I tried? I started off and then it all went south very fck fast. OMG!? What just happen? Worst experience of my life. But I learned a very valuable lesson too. I want to thank George. S. and Dallas. G for the twitter acknowledgement. I was at the Apple store when I realized this. Many frustrations have come and gone due to computer and lack of understanding on how they work.

when i mentioned dynamics, i didn't mean between the band members. i meant the dynamics of the way the band is collectively describing themselves. it seemed like a lot of justification that, to me, is unnecessary. that's why the conservative time in music thing was so off. it seemed like they were trying to create a narrative that doesn't exist in order to justify their new song's release. i think it might just be a growing pain in the lifespan of a career band. there isn't a clearly laid path for a band like themselves. at the time of their release, they were certainly weird as hell compared to what was going on in Canada at the time. but, the case is that in 2019, screaming in rock music is pretty well accepted, it is in hip-hop that we are seeing the most weirdest on a major level.
