After a week or so of weird videos and short teaser songs on streaming services, AFI are finally ready to unveil the madness behind it all: the release of a brand new album. Titled AFI (The Blood Album), their tenth full-length is going to arrive on January 20th, 2017, and to make the announcement sweeter, they’ve premiered not one, but two new songs.
Both tracks, “Snow Cats” and “White Offerings,” are available for listening on your app of choice, and both songs are balls-to-the-walls rockers that AFI are generally known for churning out. “Snow Cats” is at its best with its soaring chorus, while “White Offerings” takes no prisoners on its intense verses surrounded by poppier guitar riffs. Overall, the songs tend to stray more toward the sound that AFI implemented on their 2003 record, Sing the Sorrow.

'Jonas did 'Ray of Light' for Madonna, and that's when [Britney] became a fan of his,' Larry Rudolph tells MTV News of 'Hold It Against Me' director.

Why did Britney Spears choose Jonas Åkerlund — a director whose subject matter has included drugs, strippers and trippy violence — to shoot her "Hold it Against Me" video? The answer is simple: Madonna.
"It's a good question," Britney Spears manager Larry Rudolph told MTV News during an exclusive interview, via Skype, shortly after the video's premiere. Rudolph guided Britney's career from about 1999 to 2004 and for a brief period in 2007 before they reunited again nearly three years ago. "Jonas is someone we've always wanted to work with," Rudolph said. "She's always wanted to work with him. You know, Jonas did 'Ray of Light' for Madonna,...

Don't look now, but summer is slowly coming to a close. For many of you, that means an end to endless hours at the beach and casual afternoons letting time roll by. But for some, the end of summer will mean a satisfying exit from a summer job, which can sometimes be unpleasant, mind-altering experiences. Everybody seems to have had one terrible summer job, and it has become a regular right of passage for high school kids who head out to work on farms or bus tables at family restaurants.
But some summer jobs totally rule, and AFI have one of those gigs. They are the opening act for the recently-launched Green Day tour, which is a massive combination of pyrotechnics, singalongs, audience interaction and water cannons. The road trip took them to Lollapalooza on Saturday afternoon (August 7) to play a killer hour of rugged goth-glam stomps which had to...

"Beautiful Thieves" music video from AFI has finally made its way out in full. Arriving via MTV, the video sees the band's personnel Davey Havok, Adam Carson, Hunter Burgan and Jade Puget dressed in suits. It follows them making their way to a huge mansion with beautiful ladies awaiting inside.
The video was filmed in mid December 2009. "It's a very cinematic song so I expect we have our work cut out to make the video look as grand as the song is," Adam previously commented to AFI News Headquarters about the concept of the video.
"Beautiful Thieves" is taken from AFI's 2009 studio installment "Crash Love". A promotional effort for the album has been kicked off with a number of live concerts in North America, Asia and Europe.
Recently, the band also launched a Twitter background contest which requires fans to create something creative from "Crash Love" artwork and other images...

You know AFI, aka A Fire Inside, the goth-punk rock band probably most known for its 2006 hit 'Miss Murder'. Thursday the band launched its first web series, In Tranmission, a making-of documentary for the band eighth studio album, Crash Love. The weekly series is an exclusive on music social media network Buzznet. It's not quite Wilco's I Am Trying to Break Your Heart—the true benchmark of rock album chronicling. And unless you're already a fan of AFI, it's not likely you'll be checking back weekly on this one. The opening episodes drag on with talking head shots of the band members—Adam Carson, Jade Puget, Hunter Burgan, and Davey Havok—explaining why "Torch Song" was picked to open the album. Though touted as "a rare and comprehensive look at the inner workings of a band that is normally shrouded in mystery," it's strikingly without any actual music in the two 5-minute episodes so far.

Kids dress up and rock out at the Halloween-themed Maryland festival.

Paramore at the Ulalume Music Festival

Columbia, Maryland — This was definitely the first time Paramore played a show for the Super Mario Brothers. Or a zombie skateboarder and his wife. Or a yeti.
Of course, they made mention of this fact during their crackling headlining set at Friday night's (October 23) Ulalume Music Festival — it's named after a particulary gloomy Edgar Allan Poe poem — an evening of big-ticket performances and creative costumery held at the very spooky (for this night, at least) Merriweather Post Pavillion deep in the woods of suburban Maryland.
It was a concert held in honor of Halloween (it's set to be broadcast October 30 on mtvU), which explained the kids dressed up in all manner of ghoulish finery (and more than a few Baltimore Ravens jerseys), and was certainly why the...

It's amazing to fathom, but AFI have been around for nearly 20 years. Frontman Davey Havok and drummer Adam Carson launched the band in 1991, and their new album Crash Love is their eighth full-length (and that's in addition to nine additional EPs). But one thing that has stayed constant throughout the band's career is its fan club, an old-school group who call themselves the Despair Faction. It's sort of an old-school, throwback fan club (not unlike, say, the Kiss Army), and they've provided support for the band for years.
"The Despair Faction is something we pay a lot of attention to," Carson told MTV News. "We try to provide things for the members we think they would like." But Carson added that the community has gained a mind of its own, growing far beyond even what the band ever anticipated. "They have their own events that are separate from us. It's...
