[REVIEW] AFI - DECEMBERUNDERGROUND

  • Prelude 12/21 (8/10) - The album begins with a short, electronica song; It’s almost like it’s a prelude to an emo album.
  • Kill Caustic (10/10) - I consider this the proper start to the album - a hardcore punk track with nu metal and post-hardcore influences.
  • Miss Murder (11/10) - An essential emo track. Even my sister knows this one. Peaked at No. 44 in the UK and 24 in the US.
  • Summer Shudder (10/10) - Pop punk with a slight hardcore twist - well worth your ears hearing it!
  • The Interview (8/10) - Gothic influence (such as that on the band’s previous and future albums) can clearly be heard here.
  • Love Like Winter (9/10) - More pop than punk here, a rare occurrence for a band like AFI. Peaked at No. 76 in the UK and 68 in the US.
  • Affliction (8/10) - A ballad with over 5 minutes of runtime. This track marks a more gothic sound for the rest of the album.
  • The Missing Frame (8/10) - Pop rock of a sort, with sounds and guitar effect reminiscent of The Cure.
  • Kiss And Control (9/10) - Similar to it’s predecessor, but a lot more anthemic.
  • The Killing Lights (6/10) - The bridge isn’t great, but the rest of the song makes up for it.
  • 37mm (8/10) - Electronic experimentation is present here, so this track almost sounds like dubstep at its end.
  • Endlessly, She Said (9/10) - A great album closer. ‘Nuff said.
  • Rabbits Are Roadkill... (10/10) - I love bonus tracks. Especially when they are re-recorded versions of a band’s older songs.


My top tracks for this album would be Kill Caustic, Miss Murder, Summer Shudder and Rabbits Are Roadkill - CHECK THEM OUT TRUST ME!!!


Overall, I give this album a 9/10!
