Current mood:  sore
Hey guys!

First off, I want to thank the people who came out on Halloween to Club 3 to support the Malones and Rage Against Abuse. We had a great time, and it was awesome seeing all of our friends!



So recently we have been getting a lot of questions like "What are you guys doing right now?" and "Why arent you playing any shows?" and "Is Caleb REALLY still in the band? I thought you kicked him out for not being good as Super Smash Bros on N64!". 

Well, there is a simple answer to two of those questions. 

AFA right now is in a bit of a transitional period. We are working on writing some new songs for you guys, as well as refining some our stage show, look, etc. We are taking a small break from shows in order to get all this ready for all of you, and so in a month or two we can start playing way more shows. Its a lot of work! But pretty soon we should be up and at em. 

We are working on releasing a new EP, hopefully in early this spring. 

So thank you for being patient with us. We appreciate all the support we get, and all the friends we are making. You all mean so much to us, and without you my mom would probably be our only fan. 


Here are the lyrics to the new song we played on Halloween. Id like to call it "The Sleep of Reason Brings Forth Monsters". What do you think?



(Verse 1)
Don't stop. Let it all in.
So messed up
get it out of my skin.
Is this all that ive ever wanted?
Or everything that I never should have had at all?

(Verse 2)
Dad said He'd always be proud.
"I cant pretend like I've got it all sorted out.
You're so smart.
You never let me down."
And only cause I said i never had it at all.


(Verse 3)
I always let what im trying to say
get in the way of what im trying to say.
Let it out.
Show me a face to the name.
I'll just keep singing till it all sounds the same.

(Chorus)
You carry me.
We're the salt of the earth?
Do you need this?
Are we all just dying?
Just dig me up so I can finally breathe.


(Bridge) 
Am I dying?
This makes it hard to sort out
Just keep it simple, keep it near, and keep it open.
If I'm dying
I dont want to go out like a man who never had a chance to start with.

(Chorus)
You carry me.
We're the salt of the earth?
Do you need this?
Are we all just dying?
Just dig me up so I can finally breathe.

Oh Are we all just dying?
Oh Are we all just dying?




I guess thats all for now. We will try to keep putting up videos on a regular basis! So keep checking in. Thanks friends!
