SING THE SORROW was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Boxed Or Special Limited Edition Package.

With its major label debut SING THE SORROW, AFI (aka A Fire Inside), has made the leap from being strictly hardcore punk denizens to a more complex outfit dabbling in goth guitar textures and a soaring sound. With Nirvana/Smashing Pumpkins producer Butch Vig and Green Day/Rancid knob-twirler Jerry Finn manning the board, this transition ends up being a smooth one. Swirling synths, disembodied harmonies and the Tool-like bashing of drummer Adam Carson help the foreboding "Miseria Cantare" set a mood closer to Dead Can Dance than the Dead Kennedys. Although "Death of Season" predominantly rides a hardcore vibe, the most obvious indicators that this ain't your older brother's punk rock are "The Leaving Song Pt. II," with its sing-along-chorus and pounding rhythm, the dark Cult-like rocker "Bleed Black," and "This Celluloid Dream," a charged anthem of vulnerability.

Further indications that AFI successfully straddles the worlds of mainstream acceptance and street credibility are radio-friendly songs like "The Leaving Song" and "The Great Disappointment" featuring Jade Puget's melodic riffing and Davey Havok's heartfelt crooning. This Bay Area quartet seals the innovative SING THE SORROW with "Girl's Not Grey," a perfect pop-punk song that rides along on catchy, chanting harmonies and churning guitar.

This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.Rolling Stone (3/20/03, p.64) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...SING THE SORROW is a dark planet that refracts various strains of rock, from punk to hardcore to metal to mope rock, and beckons everyone to twist and shout along..."
Spin (4/03, pp.101-2) - "...Retaining nu metal's most-friendly sonic whomp, the band replace the genre's pervasive despair with open-hearted punk uplift....Even this record's darkest moments sound hopeful..."
Q (01/01/04, p.79) - Ranked #23 in Q's "The 50 Best Albums of 2003" - "[Incorporates] U2's dynamics and Killing Joke's apocalyptic atmospherics..."

5 stars excellent cd
This cd is more than I was hoping for. I can't stop listening to it. Truthfully, it is different from the older AFI but these guys just keep getting better and better. Congradulations to AFI for putting out another fantastic album!

5 stars Still Great After All This Time
I fell in love with AFI after i heard The Leaving Song pt.2 They instantly became my favorite band since i bought this cd and continue to be my fav. Davey has such vivasity and writing capibilities most of us can only dream of. Not only that but he has an amazing voice and Jade is an excelent guitarist. Hunter and Adam are great too. Wouldnt be AFI without them. Even 7 years after the album has come out i still play the cd from time to time. And of course i still sing them. Always will love AFI.

After The Playboy Mansion
Dimitri From Paris After The Playboy Mansion CDs  (2002)

Sing The Sorrow songs
CD $17.29  5 stars Audio Samples
This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by Dimitri From Paris. Despite emerging from the same fertile late-'90s Paris dance scene that spawned Mirwais, Air, and Daft Punk, Turkish-born Dimitri From Paris's influence can be traced to the late-'70s heyday of house music pioneer Larry Levan. AFTER THE PLAYBOY MANSION affirms this fact, its two CDs packed with a continuous stream of remade classics and vintage nuggets remixed by a who's who of dance music producers. Even though Dimitri tagged one CD "Laidback" and the other "Uplifting," both labels are misleading as all these cuts are packed with solid grooves that grab the listener up regardless of tempo. Among the far-flung cuts featured on "Uplifting" are De La Soul's breezy, Iberian-flavored "(It Ain't) All Good" featuring Chaka Khan, the jazz flavors of Next Evidence's "The Body Theme," and Alexkid's chugging, Ibiza-flecked space-techno shuffle "Bienvenida." Other notable tracks include Dimitri's re-edit of the Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes classic "Don't Leave Me This Way" and Linda Clifford's high steppin' Shelter Club anthem "Changin'." The "Laidback" disc is equally compelling thanks to stellar remixes of Lil Louis, Maze, Les Nubians, and a classic Levan production of Gwen Guthrie's sweeping classic "Peanut Butter." Keeping the ...

Circles
Autumn Defense Circles CD  (2003)

Sing The Sorrow album
CD $10.95  Audio Samples
The Autumn Defense let down their guard on Circles, their second album, to reveal the blue-green beauty trembling beneath. Less ambitious and far more intuitive, it's a mellow stretch of earthy folk-pop, where horns and strings are used because they sound nice, not out of a self-appointed duty to past musical idols. Between John Stirratt's busy touring schedule with Wilco and Pat Sansone's multitude of production engagements, Circles exudes the ameliorative qualities of an escape record that was made during downtime, for downtime -- while mentally liberated from the pressures of the daily world, where the two writers could reflect upon the geyser of circles that is life. Sunny acoustics and vintage keys over lazy ...
