Singer Davey Havok and drummer Adam Carson formed AFI in 1991. Beginning as a hardcore act, AFI quickly built up a dedicated following in the Bay Area scene with a string of early releases. In 1997, they solidified their long-running line-up with the addition of bassist Hunter Burgan and guitarist Jade Puget in 1998.

The band went beyond hardcore with their fourth album, Black Sails In The Sunset, released in 1999. Embracing a more melodic sound with elements of gothic rock and horror punk, AFI were propelled to stardom with the commercially successful albums Sing The Sorrow (2003) and Decemberunderground (2006), which saw the band find mainstream appeal.
AFI now have eleven studio albums and ten EPs under their belts, with singles like Medicate and Miss Murder making the band chart-toppers.
Touring with Green Day in March 2025, audiences across the country will get to watch AFI open for the American Idiot punks at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium on Saturday, 1 March, Sydney’s Engie Stadium on Monday, 3 March, and the Gold Coast’s CBUS Super Stadium on Wednesday, 5 March.
You can find tickets to that tour here.
