Û Review by Corey Apar Û
Û Û
Û AFI is a band lucky to own fiercely loyal fans who embrace -- and Û
Û ultimately expect -- the gradual transformation the band has undergone Û
Û with each album since 1999's Black Sails in the Sunset. Where many bands Û
Û get called out for signing to a major label or even just maturing their Û
Û sound over time, AFI fans have chiefly stayed devoted to their Û
Û ever-evolving goth-punk heroes. With that in mind, Decemberunderground Û
Û comes as AFI's follow-up to their ambitious major-label smash Sing the Û
Û Sorrow. Due to the clever production tricks employed on that album, fans Û
Û might expect even more intricate arrangements, sound effects, and sonic Û
Û landscapes to emerge from the wintry packaging of Decemberunderground. Û
Û To an extent this is true, but it's more that the cloudy gloom Û
Û permeating their career thus far has lifted, allowing a relatively Û
Û tighter and lighter overall album to emerge. Take the band's traditional Û
Û prelude for instance: this time it's infused with stirring strings and Û
Û an uplifting dance-pop beat that is a far cry from the dark and eerie Û
Û call-to-arms chants of previous albums. And though "Kill Caustic" (and Û
Û later "Affliction") brings AFI's earlier hardcore punch, if you thought Û
Û "Girl's Not Grey" was poppy, check out this record's lead single, "Miss Û
Û Murder." Despite a slightly ominous undertone, the glam-tinged song is Û
Û damn near playful and sunny amid bouncy rhythms, vaguely industrial Û
Û beats, background "hey!"s (courtesy of AFI's fan brotherhood, the Û
Û Despair Faction), and a bassline that could have been swiped from Green Û
Û Day. The band further dips its hand into new wave exploits ("37mm"), Û
Û truly stirring choruses ("Summer Shudder"), stark electro vibrations Û
Û ("Love Like Winter"), and the customary ballad ("Endlessly, She Said"). Û
Û AFI even comes as close as they probably ever will to sounding like U2 Û
Û in "The Missing Frame." Somehow, the guys have managed to combine Û
Û hardcore instincts with dark emo-coated lyrics, synth shimmies, gothic Û
Û aesthetics, and electronic beats into a sound that still remains wholly Û
Û AFI. So maybe that's why fans have stuck by the band over all these Û
Û years. Even as the guys stretch and flex their songwriting muscles, they Û
Û never fail to remember where they came from, instead using their past Û
Û work as the foundation to their essential growth. Decemberunderground Û
Û may have more fully realized doses of pop and electronic music present, Û
Û but the core of AFI's sound never strays too far from what listeners Û
Û have grown to love about them in the first place. Û
