AFI Drop Surprise New Song “Get Dark” Ahead of December Release of New EP ‘The Missing Man’
Alt-rock heavyweights AFI dropped a couple of surprises on fans today in the form of a new track, “Get Dark”, and news of a new EP.
AFI have dropped a couple of nice surprises on fans today, first in the form of a new track “Get Dark”.
The second surprise is that “Get Dark” is the first track from a special EP titled The Missing Man (VIA Ex Noctem Nacimur), which was produced and mixed by AFI guitarist Jade Puget and is slated for a December 7th release.
“Thanks to the unexpected continuation of The Blood Tour, we found ourselves inspired to begin writing,” says AFI lead vocalist Davey Havok. “It was during this process that The Missing Man was found.”
About “Get Dark”, Havok says, “From the initial performance and recording, it had a driving sense of forward movement and penetrating connection. 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.”
