Was Silver and Cold's bizzare ending a great visual masterpiece or was Toalimmortal and Medicate's black and white montage the icing on the cake? Did The Leaving Song Pt. II capture an AFI show perfectly or did Miss Murder's deathly demeanor seduce you?
What about Davey's kidnap and murder on He Who Laughs Last? Or the skating teens of Third Season? And the Girl's Not Grey bunny entering to Jade's crotch world? Was there enough snow in Love Like Winter?

ReplyDelete1. Silver and Cold2. Love Like Winter3. Girls Not Grey
ReplyDeleteGirl's Not Grey!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is TLSP2. Something about it is just so... captivating and majestic. I also very much enjoy the Miss Murder video for that reason. And third favorite would have to be Silver and Cold.
ReplyDeleteBoo @ party poopers :(
ReplyDelete1. Love Like Winter.2. The Leaving Song Pt. 2.3. Silver And Cold.
ReplyDeleteDid you add The Missing Frame? Haha!My favorite videos come down to Silver & Cold and The Days of the Phoenix, but DOTP wins that matchup. The bridge is so well done.
ReplyDelete1. Love Like WinterBest Cinematography in any video ever for me. Band shots were unique and really well done, likewise, the story shots were put together really well to help the "story" flow. And the timing between the song and the story in incredible.2. Girls Not GreyDoes anything actually need to be said for it?3. Leaving Song Pt 2AFI playing a one of the most badass songs ever written. But in tuxes. What the hell else do you want?
ReplyDeleteI say all vids directed by Marc Webb lol
ReplyDeleteGIRLS NOT GREY! Hands down! That video is my favorite music video in existence. It is perfection. Second favorite might be dotp or leaving song pt2.
ReplyDelete1. Leaving Song Pt.2 2. Totalimmortal3. Days of the PhoenixI hated the DU videos and hated Silver and Cold video. All others are sick.
ReplyDeleteCrotch shots aka DOTPLol but seriously I lov the eery feeling of Miss Murder, and the "OH SH!T!!" factor of silver and cold when I saw the ending.LLW was also a very interesting video.
ReplyDeleteGNG = because it is wonderfully shot, it has a wonderful storyline, and omgpetalsEXPLODINGoutofdavey'schest!(does the 12/28/09 thing have to do with BA? oddly enough, that's the first anniversary of me having heard AFI!)
ReplyDelete1. Silver And Cold2. Days of The Phoenix3. The Leaving Song Part 2And i think Sing The Sorrow had the best set of Music Videos for any album they made =}
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Marty. As a whole, it was a very diverse and thematically amazing set of videos.
ReplyDeleteI played Miss Murder on guitar hero in 2007 and one day i wanted to know the band that played that song.When i saw davey with that hair i thought :man, this is different of anything and i watched the video, so Miss Murder is the video that show me who is AFI and show me what was the thing that would make me crazy for the rest of my life.I love AFI and i am a Miss Murder lover. I I Think that Miss Murder has the best direction by Marc Webb and they got a perfect place for filming.I love the ending of miss murder and how davey is important in the video story.Anyway Miss Murder is the best video for me and i really like the other videos. The only video that i dont like is he who laughs last. I Think they could do something better just like third season.I Think they should do more videos.In 20 years of carrer they just have 10 videos or 11.I think more videos would be great.
ReplyDeleteLeaving song part 2I love the letting down of the hair and the x'd up fists
ReplyDeleteHow is Leaving Song Pt. 2 so behind in that poll? Seriously? The hard core dancing and the band all dressed up? That video is amaaaazing.
ReplyDeleteWOW I'm really stupid I thought "12.28.09" was the date today lol. Why is "12.28.09" written on the top of the blog?
ReplyDeleteI love Medicate. Silver & Cold use to be my favorite but, I just love Davey in Medicate.
ReplyDeleteIm gonna guess Beautiful thieves vid. or is that too much wishful thinking? I have no idea how long it takes to edit a music video.
ReplyDelete1. Silver And Cold because of our beautiful Prague. :)2. Love Like Winter because of epic snow in Davey's hair.3. Beautiful Thieves maybe?
ReplyDelete1. DotP is classic.2. Medicate is classy.
ReplyDeleteI love Silver and Cold + Girl's Not Grey.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is really hard.Love Like Winter is my favorite visually.The Leaving Song Part 2 is such an intense video, and Miss Murder is very dramatic and interesting. I cannot decide!
ReplyDeleteMy tops:The GNG "prelude" video hypnotizes me every time. Where they're all done up black, just performing...LLW is just visually stunning all around.Silver and Cold, for personal reasons as well as the storyline.
ReplyDeleteHands down anything that's NOT from DU.
ReplyDeleteWhy is there 12/28/09 on top of the page?
ReplyDeletei was wondering the same thing. is that when the crash love thing that was supposed to come out around christmas coming out?
ReplyDeleteIs it when the video will be released? I noticed the poll on the video doesn't close until 28th.
ReplyDelete1) Silver and Cold2) Days Of The Phoenix3) Girls Not Grey
ReplyDeleteAll Marc Webb's AFI vids were amazing, but I'd have to say The Days Of The Pheonix, Love Like Winter and Silver And Cold (in no particular order)
ReplyDeleteMiss Murder. Sure the other videos are AMAZING but I'll always have an affinity for this because its how I discovered AFI.
ReplyDeleteSilver and Cold.Love everything about that video :-)So whats that 12.28.09 about????
ReplyDeletei NEED to know what happens on the 28th. if its something lame, itll kill me. im hoping for the new video. maybe df will get a sneek peek or something
ReplyDeleteOH, its a video on their youtube page. it looks like a mystery of sorts. hmmm.
ReplyDeleteBy the look of the video, could it be anything to do with under the rose?
ReplyDeleteI reckon medicate is the best. Its different to what they have done and the look of it is radd!!!
ReplyDeleteHands down, I'd say Silver and Cold is my absolute favorite, but all of the STS era videos were fabulous. Silver and Cold takes the cake, though, because it's just so haunting and unresolved which is something I'm always drawn to. I don't know that they've made a video since that has really captured that intrigue. I'm hoping that Beautiful Thieves will restore some of my faith in their video making, Medicate really let me down (it was nice to look at but not complex enough).
