Crash Love was the record that split the room. AFI had already shed their Gilman Street hardcore skin, survived the mascara-and-melody pivot of Sing the Sorrow, gone platinum with Decemberunderground, and then landed somewhere that confused everyone, which, honestly, was very on-brand for Davey Havok.For fans who followed AFI through every reinvention, from horror punk basement shows to MTV rotation and back again, the Crash Love era represents a band doing exactly what they wanted regardless of expectations. That kind of artistic stubbornness deserves a patch. Sew it next to your Bad Religion back patch and let the jacket tell the whole story of where alternative music went in the 2000s.Official woven AFI sew-on patch, made in England under license. Approximately 100mm wide x 95mm tall.Fans of: The Used, Strung Out, Bad Religion, Pennywise, Thursday
