Sing the sorrow lp

The band's formative sixth LP turned 20 years old this month. AFI 's sixth studio LP Sing the Sorrow celebrated a musical milestone this past weekend, and in marking the effort's 20th anniversary, the punk vets have treated the effort to a new vinyl pressing.

Sing the Sorrow, their DreamWorks debut, isn't the wholesale departure from AFI's roots that some longtime fans griped about. It is merely the next step on a path that began with 's Black Sails in Sunset , the first album to feature guitarist Jade Puget. Assuming the role of principal songwriter, Puget wrapped vocalist Davey Havok 's gothic tendencies in songs that put a finer point on the aggressive hardcore of AFI's earlier material, and massaged hooks from a morass of crashing rhythm, punk rock riffs, and Havok 's opaque lyrics. And they did. Vig and Finn kept the band's nucleus of pummeling California hardcore but stretched the songs lengthwise to incorporate greater lyrical introspection for Havok and even more attention to melody than on previous efforts. Oscillating between churning verses and intersecting solos and riffs, "The Great Disappointment" is like junior-varsity Fugazi , while the heroic emo chord changes of "This Celluloid Dream" transform Havok 's preening wail into a sensitive croon, and single "Girls Not Grey" is a car-radio singalong of pure genius. It's true that the anthemic backing vocal choruses of material like "Girls Not Grey" and "Bleed Black" make the songs more pop than hardcore or even Havok 's beloved goth.
