Hardcore punk rock revivalists AFI (A Fire Inside) in the beginning formed in 1991 when their members -- singer Davey Havok, guitar thespian Markus Stopholese, bassist Vick, and drummer Adam Carson -- were attending high school in Ukiah, CA. Vick was replaced by Geoff Kresge later on several months, and the band played a few local gigs and released a split 7" highborn Dork with fellow Ukiah natives Loose Change (a band that by the way included future AFI member Jade Puget). An EP highborn Behind the Times was released as advantageously. The bandmembers then split up to serve to unlike colleges, with Kresge temporarily moving to New Jersey to bring together Blanks 77, and all sham East Bay's AFI was defunct. However, the band reconvened during a vacation break from school to play a one-off reunion record, and audience reception was so positive that the bandmembers decided to take pull up stakes school and concentrate on medicine full-time.

A couple of singles preceded a track record deal with the Nitro mark, which issued the band's second gear album, Very Proud of Ya, in 1996. Two LPs followed in 1997 -- a re-release of their 1995 debut, Answer That and Stay Fashionable, and Shut Your Mouth & Open Your Eyes -- and staff office shifts ensued; Kresge was the first to leave, organism replaced by Hunter Burgan, and Stopholese gone in favour of ex-Redemption 87 guitarist Jade Puget, wHO and then divided songwriting duties with Havok. The new batting order recorded an EP titled A Fire Inside in 1998, and issued a observably more than mature full-length in 1999, Black Sails in the Sunset. 1999 too byword the release of the All Hallow's EP before The Art of Drowning followed a year afterward. Though already owning a fiercely patriotic core alkali of fans, the latter album sawing machine the band's medicine organism received by an even bigger audience, due in part to the check success of the individual "Days of the Phoenix."

In the new millenary, AFI hooked up with Jerry Finn and Garbage's Butch Vig for some recording. The end event was the ambitious Sing the Sorrow, released in March 2003, their major-label debut for DreamWorks that showcased the band's substantial increase from their early hardcore years. The platter likewise marked AFI's crossover into the mainstream as their fan radix well grew, national word publications praised them, and several singles establish airplay on MTV. Working over again with producer Jerry Finn (blink-182, Green Day), the band's next record was their most labour-intensive to date, resulting from deuce age of elaborated songwriting. Decemberunderground, album numeral seven-spot, surfaced on June 6, 2006, on Interscope. The album was an instant success, debuting at number unitary on the Billboard charts. AFI kept the impulse expiration on the route nationwide that summertime, followed by a drawing string of oversea dates in October. While on circuit, Havok and Puget dedicated their trim time to a side of meat project that would get Blaqk Audio, which they debuted in early 2007. AFI went on to release I Heard a Voice: Live from Long Beach Arena later on that same year.
