This is like pitting The Rolling Stones against Bon Jovi.

I was thinking the former but I guess the jury's out.

Were AFI only big in America? I know they had a #1 record here at one point. They've been around probably close to twenty years I'd imagine.

Is this leading to chauvinistic abuse of some sort?

No, not at all. I'm just curious, cause they were/are big enough in the US that it would shock me if a music fan had never even heard of them, but I have no idea if they were ever big anywhere else.

It depends who you ask. They were always big in the UK amongst the emo tweenie crowd.

Pretty sure that I've never heard of them down here in the southern hemisphere

I'm a music fan living a small Eastern European country, and I have never heard of AMI (AFI? ACY? See, I forgot the name while I was typing a response...)

That must be the key characteristic of the Loudwire.com audience, then.

At least partly, yeah, which is why I thought they were weird bands to put together unless it's yet another reminder that people don't think PJ are cool.

Wow, that AFI song almost causes me physical pain. :lol:

Edit: I really need to stop reading comment sections on websites. They cause me even more pain.

Yeh, I didn't think I could either, but then I decided to fight to get it back again. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.
