Missing Word From Title Narrowed To Three

In a recent Ask AFI question, Davey was asked about three words and whether one of them was the one word missing from our interpretation of IATVTBH, which is the acronym for a song name from Crash Love. Here are the three candidates. Highlight the white lines below to see them. Keep in mind that Raine said he thought it was the last one on the list, but none of the winners are quite sure.

Jade Updates Blog, Talks AFI and Blaqk Audio

Earlier tonight Jade updated his blog with a fairly short message.

So much going on, haven’t had a chance to post.
Putting the final touches on the AFI album.
Writing new Blaqk Audio songs.
Trying to eat good Thai and Mexican food.
Trying to make it to Coachella (I see Moz is the clear winner).
Trying to decide who to take on tour with us.

Any thoughts on any of the above?
This means that AFI is at least finished recording Crash Love and they are also likely in the early stages of planning the new tour. Blaqk Audio will presumably have a follow-up album to CexCells.

Hunter Posts Video Response 6 of 7

On Tuesday night, Hunter gave us the sixth video in his series of responses to questions asked on his blog. Related to AFI he discusses how he feels about hanging out with fans, and the differences between recording and playing live.

Apart from that, it’s just Hunter being Hunter as he examines life or death choices, his most hated class at school, house designs, teaching kittens to tango, and more. Click here to view the video.

Davey Answers Key Questions

In Ask AFI earlier this morning, Davey answered two key questions regarding the new album. The first was about the ever-elusive meaning of IATVTBH. In a previous Ask AFI, he told us that one word of our interpretation was wrong. Now we know that the last word in our guess is not right.

He also answered a question regarding the possibility of the first single from Crash Love being released before AFI’s show at Edgefest on June 20. To that Davey said, “No, I doubt it very much.”

Best AFI Song Ever?

I am excited to introduce a new contest that will span the next several weeks and months. I would like to wittle down AFI’s massive catalogue to one supreme winner amongst fans. In order to do this, I have arranged 128 of AFI’s songs into one massive bracket. There are 32 songs in each of four divisions, named Davey, Adam, Jade, and Hunter.

You will vote to determine which songs advance through polls right here on the blog. I will post 8 polls at a time in the first round, and each poll will stay open for two days. The poll are 1-on-1 style with the song’s ranking following the title in parentheses. 36 days. 127 polls. 1 winner. Which song will it be? Voting begins NOW.

We Got It Wrong

The first title off of the new AFI album is not what we thought it was. We believed that we had translated the acronym IATVHTHB correctly, but now we have learned from Davey through Ask AFI that one word in our interpretation is wrong.
