​@nouseforafap nah! Hes just a annoying soyboy but hes right about Havok this time

I saw them play New Orleans three times in '98-'99. The first time I saw them I went to the bathroom and Davey Havok was looking in the bathroom mirror making weird faces and posing. It was hilarious.

I was there for this and it's really only AFI and Alkaline Trio that told their audience "Hey! We're vampires now" and their audience was like "bet."

Being honest but idk y it bugs me when people mention alkaline trio with afi, afi was on a whole different level. Way more extreme and dark at times but also more successful. I just really don't understand the connection.

I'll just say. I went to an AFI show years ago, and to this day it was the most violent crowd I've ever been in. I love a wild pit. But it was the only time i felt unsafe

i like early afi, especially 'shut your mouth and open your eyes' and 'all hallows' ep, but i also enjoy some of their later stuff

Gotta love the references to Goodfellas in the first video!

I saw them at this tiny pub years ago...I felt really bad as they played a short set and at the end I said "Is that it?" over a dead silence. The drummer heard me and might have taken it the wrong way as what they did play was amazing. I watched them a few months later with all their Misfitsesque grandeur and they were brilliant

Femme Danzig era of AFI is untouchable

its the jump they did to sing the sorrow and the many changes after that... yeah crazy band, good live as well

"shut your mouth..." is no skips

Still love them. It was a good time to be in the east bay at their best.

Davey Havok’s voice from All Hallows to Sing The Sorrow was godly.

I was blown away to see AFI dressed preppier than the kids i went to highschool with when i saw them in 2018

They took "He who laughs last" from resevoir dogs

the first vid - Very Proud of Ya I believe is a homage/reference to the movie Goodfellas (scene where they're driving shinebox gangster in the trunk of their car after beating the crud out of him in Tommy's bar).

It’s more of a progression than moods. They don’t really go back. I think they just be themselves and what you hear/see is a representation of who they are in the given moment.

Wearing my All Hallows E.P. shirt right now! 🎃🐈‍⬛🎃 Edit- And yes, Total Immortal is just pure audio aggression. So good.

My very first show ever was AFI opening for Good Riddance and Lagwagon at Berkeley Square in 1995. They had so much energy! So cool to see them go on to becoming one of the biggest bands…

Dan is always entertaining and I appreciate that.

I used to spend high school computer classes finding these videos pre KZread. Sing the sorrow wasn't even out yet! Fuck am I old?! Also Shut Up And Look is a pretty underrated album these days

Lit and AFI should never be mentioned in the same sentence

Davey Danzig, Glenn Havok… same difference!

Third Season is one of my favorite songs from them. I was so bummed that the earliest song they played when I saw them in September was Days of the Phoenix. I wanted all that old school goodness.

Saw them open for Good Riddance in 98. Became an instant fan and still a fan all these years later. They still bring it live but for sure, seeing them in late 90s up until they canceled remaining dates of STS tour was unparalleled. Some of the best shows of my memory. Edit: i dare you to watch all the videos from the Bodies album. Even as an AFI stan, i can tell you itll be a rough watch. Its a terrible album.

So good

Damn Blank TV. I remember watching videos on that site 25 years ago 😢

There are two Daves that hold the keys to my heart and for the same reason, Bowie and Havok. Never stop growing and changing! 🖤

imo AFI really started coming together during shut your mouth and solidified next album with jade.....with that being said he who laughs is by far and away my fav track before then

The “He Who Laughs Last” video was a Goodfellas spoof. Ray Liotta literally opens looking out the window saying “As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster.”

I saw them open for rancid in 95, fucking crazy! Also saw em play the elks club in moose jaw Saskatchewan (98ish) That was insane!

Skate punk AFI is best AFI.

They weren't incredibly popular during Very Proud of Ya because the scene had moved to post-punk and beatdown. At least that's what the band says, I was six when the album released. Also, the music video for He Who Laughs Last is a spoof on the movie Goodfellas.

They were the 90s equivalent to Ratt in the 80s. Regardless if you liked em, you were going to AFI to get laid. Fuck yeah!

Everyone was punk in the 90's. In California, in particular, there was a sense of rebellion and nonconformity that permeated the culture, which aligned with the punk ethos. This rebellious spirit could be seen not just in the music, but also in the fashion, art, and general attitude of the time. Even Grunge was heavily influenced by punk and shared many of its anti-establishment values. Same with hip-hop and rap scenes in LA were known for their raw lyricism and their critique of societal issues, which also echoed the punk ethos. So, while not everyone in the 1990s was a self-proclaimed punk, the influence of punk could be seen and felt in many aspects of the culture, particularly here in California. Sorry just nostalgic thoughts.

The first video from Very Proud of Ya is a parody of the movie Goodfellas.

I always think of the hot topic era AFI. Lmao at the Lit video. I knew a dude that switched up his look and personality every time there’s was a new subculture.
