Burials

Burials is the ninth studio album by the American rock band AFI. It was released on October 22, 2013 through Republic Records. In a statement regarding the album, AFI frontman Davey Havok said, "This record is of silence, and the burials that result from that silence. It's of betrayal, cruelty, weakness, anxiety, panic – deep and slow – despair, injury and loss. And in this it is shamefully honest and resolutely unforgiving". In contrast to previous releases from AFI, lead singer Davey Havok described Burials as having a "very layered and very rich", adding that it was "far, far less straightforward than what we did on the last record, which – much like every record we create – was the result of a natural growth, a natural indication of where we are as songwriters now"
