AFI have set October 3rd for the release of their twelfth studio record, Silver Bleeds the Black Sun… The effort will be out through Run For Cover Records. Pre-orders are now available here. The group have also released a video for a new single titled “Behind the Clock”. The clip, directed by Gilbert Trejo, can be found below. Trejo said of it:
“We wanted the video to feel like you’re seeing something you shouldn’t. In effect you are, because that’s how Davey [Havok, AFI vocalist] writes lyrics. He’s expressing himself so openly, that you’re let behind this curtain. It’s a world that most artists don’t cut to, marrow deep.”
Frontman Davey Havok offered:
“Gilbert’s video has sublimated the essence of ‘Behind the Clock’. His vision and expertise is inspiring. Working with him was a privilege and utter joy. He is an artist of the purest form.”
