THE STRANGE HISTORY OF AFI

The strange history of AFI that made them one of the most important bands in punk and alternative music:
* Their skatepunk era (“Answer That And Stay Fashionable”) and melodic hardcore era (“Shut Your Mouth And Open Your Eyes”)
* AFI’s horrorpunk era (“Black Sails” and “All Hallows EP”)
* The mainstream breakthrough with “Decemberunderground” and “Miss Murder”
* The post-punk era: “Burials,” the blood album and “Bodies”
* How Davey Havok popularized straight edge and hardcore, and his projects like XTRMST
