Get Dark is the first new material to emerge from the California goth-punks since their 2017 LP 'AFI (The Blood Album)', and is set to feature on a new EP called 'The Missing Man'. The five song collection is expected to arrive on December 7 and was produced by guitarist Jade Puget.
The track finds the band momentarily taking a break from their trademark dramatics and going full blown rock 'n' roll, churning out distorted power chords while Davey Havok ricochets between chanted and soft vocals. It's an AFI song released a week before Halloween, you're required to hit play. Them's the rules.
“From the initial performance and recording, it had a driving sense of forward movement and penetrating connection," Havok said. "The song’s themes of deification and deference, self-loathing and vanity, captivation and release, damage and healing, are posed in a subtle invitation to those inherently compelled to accept.”
