Anyone else out there detest this watered down bilge. Punk rock my ass. AFI is a shadow of what they used to be, and even then they weren't that great. I guess that is better then the Atari's who have always been crap.

It may be less raw, but thats a good thing. Good writing, stronger vocals, more adventurous songs. A shadow?! I suppose next you'll be saying Blink 182 and Avril Lavigne are the greatest punk acts ever. You sick puppy.

The Atari's are crap. But AFI is an excellent band who have been damn good for a long time. Because their production has gotten better does not mean they've become something else. PUNK does not mean shitty production. Have you ever listened to Bad Religion? Guess what? GOOD PRODUCTION. Try to tell me Bad Religion isn't punk. Let's see, who else....The Clash, good production for the time, wanna tell me they weren't punk? I'm not saying a band has to have high production quality to be a good punk band, I know damn well thats not true, being a big fan of the occasionial basement punk show. But having good production can make a band better, and in AFI's case it made their best album yet.
