Ascension

AFI (A Fire Inside), the California rock veterans, have long mastered the art of transformation—from blistering hardcore beginnings to brooding, gothic soundscapes. Their latest release, Silver Bleeds the Black Sun…, deepens that legacy with haunting precision. Gothic gloom collides with shimmering '80s nostalgia, crafting their boldest reinvention yet. Each track unfolds like a séance, conjuring echoes of past selves and inviting listeners to dance with their shadows. Spellbinding!

 


DIARY OF DREAMS - The Chemistry of Pain

Wrong. So wrong.

I could never be this close to anyone
My cage was only barely meant for one
End the battle and take my crown
I will hide my fragile heart from anyone

Cloud your conscience and taint the past
Drown your hope, avoid the devastating vast
Fight your tears keep marching on
Time is lost and nowhere you belong

These walls are all I have
These walls are all I am and how
These walls are all I’ve left
Take it all from me

Console this shattered soul of mine
Day by day we’re running out of time
Grey the contrast and stand up strong
Absorb the self-fulfilling prophecies

Unravel secret mythologies
Cure us all with a deadly strong disease
May all the shameless lies decay
My disguise will never, ever fade
