There was a guy in my high school we called "ay-fee Mark" because that's how he pronounced AFI.

Pfft, I was listening to AFI before Sing The Sorrow.

I remember they had one song that had a verse in Spanish, except the Spanish didn't make any sense.

AFI stands for American Film Institute.

It also stands for A Fire Inside, a really fucking horrible band from California that started in the mid-90s as a Misfits cover band and eventually became pioneers of the Hot Topic mall-emo subgenre.

It still bothers me that this song is too quiet. On the video, the bookends footage is much louder.

The blood splatters in the artwork don't make sense to me. There are a few drops on the plate underneath the rosary, and apparently loads underneath the plate. That seems unrealistic.

Even with blood stains you carry about your day to day activities. In fact, you don't even worry about wiping them up.

Shit, what if that's the plot twist of the album?

In a world of guns and religious fundamentalists and global warming, the real danger lies in the dishes.
