I don't think I have listened to an AFI album in 5 years, but this albums is a pretty fun revival for the band. The tracks on AFI (The Blood Album) ranges from insane punk hits like "Dumb Kids" to slower haunting vocal performances like "Aurelia". The instrumentals are intense, with cymbal crashes and quick guitar riffs. The album reminisces on the music that 90s kids grew up with. All of you angsty late teens and early twenty-year-olds will become nostalgic for the band again. I'm not even going to lie, I still sometimes go back to "Girls Not Grey" when I need to rewind to simple high school times. Nothing on this album is quite as catchy as "Girls Not Grey" or "Miss Murder", yet there is plenty of new stuff to enjoy from the band that has struggled to remain relevant to their main audience. After a four year hiatus, these guys have finally come up with an album that is almost as fun as Sing The Sorrow.
