Editorial Reviews
From Amazon.com
Starting life as the most competent Misfits tribute band to not actually play Misfits songs, San Francisco Bay Area punks A.F.I. have not only discovered how to write their own snarling melodies, but have developed the confidence to play them without a cloak. Sing the Sorrow marks the band’s first major-label release and the difference from their indie albums is in the details: songs freely shift gears and tempos, singer Davey Havoc flexes his pristine vocal abilities by breaking into the occasional falsetto, and sugary tracks like "The Leaving Song" and "The Great Disappointment" now take a place next to more standard nuclear-charged mosh-pit fare like "Bleed Black" and "Dancing Through Sunday." Longtime fans might take it like a kick to the head, but this band is clearly moving toward bigger things. --Aidin Vaziri
Chronique amazon.fr
À San Francisco, d'où Afi est originaire, le quatuor jouit d'un certain succès critique. Il est en grande partie dû à ses concerts et, surtout, à quelques albums qui ont été publiés par Dexter Holland d'Offspring, sur son label Nitro. Davey Havock, le leader de la formation, tire l'ensemble vers ce qui constitue le creuset de ses influences : à savoir du punk fortement mâtiné de new wave gothique. En effet, c'est un fan de The Cure et de Bauhaus, dont on entendra des réminiscences çà et là. Ajoutons à son crédit un sens de la mélodie qui n'appartient qu'à lui, des refrains en forme d'hymnes, et l'on comprendra la singularité de Sing The Sorrow qui, soit dit au passage, est produit par Jerry Finn (qui y est pour beaucoup dans le son de Blink-182) et Butch Vig (dont tout le monde sait qu'il a travaillé avec Sonic Youth et Nirvana). --Hervé Comte
