RollingStone.com Reviews Minneapolis show

Rollingstone.com posted a review of the first show of the current tour in Minneapolis . With lots of shout outs to The Despair Faction. Read the review here.

Excerpt:
Brandishing his mic stand like a wizard, Havok led his Despair Faction through their sad-but-united sing-alongs, pausing only to proclaim, at various times, that the crowd, the city and being back on tour after a year and a half were all “fucking awesome.” The last, at the very least, seemed to be a heartfelt statement, as the band banged out one expertly rocked song after another with professional efficiency, packing as big a playlist as possible while still ending inside a 10:30 p.m. deadline.

  3. Silver And Cold is not even close to pop. its more like a Alternative/Rock Ballad not a stupid "pop Anthem" LMAOBtw thats a pretty sweet setlist but i been noticing they dont play Days of the Phoenix as of late i hope they play it when i go its one of there greatest songs they ever made period any AFI fan should kno that =]
