AFI has announced that their eleventh studio album Bodies will release on June 11th via Rise Records. With the announcement, the band offered two new tracks, “Looking Tragic” and “Begging For Trouble“, which you can find below. Pre-orders for the new album are available at this location.
While speaking on the video for “Looking Tragic“, which was done by Adam Mason, Davey Havok, the band’s frontman offered:
“‘Looking Tragic‘ addresses the theme of overstimulation resulting in desensitisation. Melodic and driving, the song came to life quickly and immediately stood out as a track to make bodies, if not sentiments, move.”
Adam Carson, the band’s drummer, offered the following on the latest single “Begging For Trouble“, stating:
“After years of receiving early versions of songs from Jade and Davey, in forms that span loosely arranged chords and scratch vocal to fully realised demos, I think I have become quite adept at knowing which songs will or will not make the record. ‘Begging For Trouble‘ was green lit, at least in my mind, the moment I heard the vocals come in. To me, the track is a cornerstone of the new record.”
