AFI and the Art of Selling Out

"This coming from Jeff at punkbands.com:
A reliable source brings me word that the one and only AFI is in the process of signing or may have even already signed to a major label which still, so far, goes unnamed. If my word alone isn't enough to rouse suspicion then think twice. It just may explain how they got a gig opening for a band like Jane's Addiction and why their song "Days of Phoenix" suddenly was added to KROQ's playlist after initially being added an entire year ago only to fall off the charts almost immediately. They tend to stay there a lot longer when you have some nice funding behind you!"
