t1m3k1ll3r Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Check out the new project from AFI members Davey Havok and Jade Puget. Really good stuff, nothing groundbreaking, but recommended if you're a fan of the synthpop. Check out tracks on the myspace: http://www.myspace.com/blaqkaudio Official site here: http://www.blaqkaudio.com/ Cool to see one of the biggest labels in music history taking a chance with a release like this, I'm sure it's because of AFI's massive success, but still. Ronan from VNV is said to work with them again (he did a bit of work on the last AFI record) and the Assemblage 23 remix of Stiff Kittens has already begun popping up on playlists, including here in the Detroit area. Hot Topic will host listening events for their debut album "CexCells" in all of their locations on Friday, August 3rd at 5pm, the first 15 people to show up at each event will receive a free special Blaqk Audio pin, and a limited edition Hot topic exclusive single with remixes will be available as well.
mallochai Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 I hate to say this, especially about something that Hot Topic is promoting so heavily, but uh... I actually like it. It's not amazing, but it's nice on the ears.
FarrIL Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Dear lord, I think I'm going to have an orgasm listening to this music! D:
Lillylu29 Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 they have the whole new album posted on their myspace page...... im lovin it.... WOW
Scary Guy Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 DJ Moondancer was talking about them at the Bella Morte show, played me a track, it didn't suck.
DJDeadbeat Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 As an AFI fan and former fan of futurepop/synthpop, this isn't too bad. Its got more "passion" in it than most futurepop thats coming out these days. Its more trad-synthpop sounding. Which is nice. Davey's vocals are ace in it.
freydis Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Davey does sing quite passionately..... i'm quite fond of the lyrics those two write, as well.....
Lillylu29 Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 they are having a concert at St. andrews hall Sept. 16th... who wants to go?
freydis Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 i want to.... but in the space of a few weeks, i'm seeing 2 possibly 3 shows already.... so i dont know if i'll be able to.... any idea how much the tickets are?

DJDeadbeat Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 the paper said 23 bux...... not bad Damn, expensive, much? Maybe I am just used to seeing shows for 12 bucks or 15 the most usually.
Lillylu29 Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Damn, expensive, much? Maybe I am just used to seeing shows for 12 bucks or 15 the most usually. I dont think i'v ever seen a show for that cheap!.....
Scary Guy Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 I dont think i'v ever seen a show for that cheap!..... Pay more attention then! I see them for this cheap all the time, they just don't get advertised usually.
Lillylu29 Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 Pay more attention then! I see them for this cheap all the time, they just don't get advertised usually. that would be why then..... im use to going to see bigger named bands..... but then again iv only been to 1 concert in the last 8 yrs i think......

Wooleybooley Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 Munin's the one who turned me on to Blaqk Audio. It's definitely in my top albums for 2007. Looking into tickets for the show. .... hope it doesn't sell out too quick! ( i'm sure lots of AFI fans will be showing up )
