Answer That and Stay Fashionable

AFI

Seventeen tracks of blistering East Bay hardcore. Raw, nasal, and wildly energetic, this is the sound of a band before the shadows and theater took over.

Before they were goths, they were just four kids playing the fastest punk you've ever heard.

A frantic, bratty explosion of teenage energy and suburban boredom.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The frantic, high-speed drum fill that kicks off Two of a Kind sets the breakneck pace for the entire record.
The gang-vocal chorus of I Wanna Get a Mohawk captures the tongue-in-cheek suburban rebellion of the mid-90s.
A rare moment of vulnerability surfaces in the bridge of The Mother in Me before crashing back into hardcore chaos.
