AFI - Decemberunderground

Interscope Records . 06/06/2006 . review: Oliver . genre: Gothic/ Punk/ Electro/ Pop

AFI just released another stunning masterpiece on Interscope Records, called "Decemberunderground". The release does not really differ much from their foregoer record "Sing the sorrow". AFI really tooked a long time out to write down new songs and the result has turned out amazing. Davey Havoc and his band recorded twelve stunning Rock tracks with slamming drums, super hard edged guitars and powerful basslines. Davey has such a beautiful voice that keeps you banned allover the record. He is able to sing in different styles and octaves. Honestly there are not many singers out there, that have such a stunning and beautiful voice, like Davey Havock has. The new material is just amazing. The record deals once again with a lot of different themes, like love, romance and misery. When AFI begun their in the ninetees on Nitro records, their songs were pretty raw and fast. The band has decreased the tempo and increased their melodies and their creativeness.The majortiy of songs on "Decemberunderground" had been kept in a midtempo manner. AFI is one of the most creative bands, that I know about. Their music tends between Pop, Darkwave, Punk, Hardcore and Screamo. On "Decemberunderground" the band definitely got influenced by The Cure and U2.
