AFI: Sing The Sorrow is a cinematic emo-punk drama. Maybe I'm just a sucker for Butch Vig's production...
Don't think of it as a tribute, this is one of the best 80's albums ever!
Seamless, singer-songwriter-inspired, and creative pop/rock album. Is that enough labels? The emotions are strong and more expressive than impressionistic.
"Which Witches Sandwich wrew, Bitch Bitch Bitches Brew."
Lyrics from my mind...this album has no words because it left me speechless enough to be this unfunny.
Modern, political, and ripe with 70's influences (in a good way)!
It's literally like they listened to the Melvin's song, named themselves after it, and made it their mission to stretch their take on the song into four 15-minute segments... quite literally.
It's produced very well, it's not bad, it's just not my favorite by them. And if that pisses you off, believe me, this is not my "worst" opinion from about their discography.
