617 Q&A: Ian Astbury on goth romanticism, enlightenment, and a Death Cult revival


Music

<p>Before there was The Cult, there was Death Cult, a darker, more gothic iteration of the group that would later become known for hits like “She Sells Sanctuary,” “Fire Woman,” and “Love Removal Machine.” And while a shadowy side existed to the modern version through the years, no matter what musical path they ventured down, it was still surprising when core members Ian Astbury (vocals) and Billy Duffy (guitar) announced in 2023 that they would be doing a very limited […]</p>

Today marks the release of Los Angeles folk-punks Hoist the Colors’ brand new album Dear Wanderlust, available on colored vinyl from HEY!FEVER Records and streaming everywhere. We’re stoked to bring you the exclusive premiere of the music video for track #6 on the album “The Sins of Saints”. Check that shit out below!

“The song focuses on the moments of struggle in our lives and the potential for redemption. People have a tendency to give up on their dreams when they fail or are told it’s just not worth it. We wanted to give a nod to one of our favorite movies as a band, “Nacho Libre,” so with the help of two amazing pro wrestlers, Primo and Slice from Santino Brothers Wrestling, we were able to put a really cool story together. Probably the most fun we’ve had shooting a video.” -Josh Linden (Hoist The Colors)

Hoist the Colors will be playing their album release show for Dear Wanderlust on November 1st at Saint Rocke w/ Western Waste, Heartwells and You Second. Go here for tickets and more details.

AFI is currently on a Fall tour of North America to promote their newest album, Silver Bleeds the Black Sun…, released on the same day of their concert at Chicago’s Salt Shed on October 3rd. The tour marks the first full-scale tour since their 2021 album Bodies.

The ever-evolving band has made shifts in every album, from hardcore, emo, post-punk and genres in between, always pushing the envelope and being their bold, unapologetic selves. With the release of Silver Bleeds the Black Sun…, AFI may have reached their final form and what they were always meant to be; a post-punk gothic rock powerhouse reminiscent of the likes of Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy and The Cure. 

To help set the mood, the Canadian electronic project TR/ST opened for the evening, transforming The Salt Shed into a synthesizer-heavy dark wave night club.

One thing that remains steadfast during AFI’s transformations? The fans. Between powerful lyrics, dark romanticism, melodic riffs, and Davey Havok’s showmanship (not to mention his own fashionable image), seeing AFI live is nothing short of immersive and feels like home.

AFI played an expanded set list across their discography in addition to songs from Silver Bleeds the Black Sun…, including the album’s leading single “Behind the Clock” and a debut performance of “Ash Speck in a Green Eye“. Also notable was the performance of “File 13” from their 1996 album Very Proud of Ya. 

Davey and AFI have not slowed down one bit over the years and their live shows are a testament to that. High energy, jumping from platforms, crowd participation and even being held up by fans while standing, you can tell AFI genuinely love what they do and their fans. Whatever the next era may hold for AFI, we the fans are here to stay.

Through our bleeding, we are one!
