Davey replied to a tweet last night from Daniel Raschko, a visual effects artist, that said “that’s a wrap” and it mentioned Travis Kopach, who we know directed the new music video. Davey mentioned “dark shadows and dim mirrors.” We will keep you updated with any new information.
Davey has apparently performed again with the band Pop Shop! He previously performed Nicki Minaj’s hit Superbass with the group, which you can view here! The band wrote on Facebook that Davey filled in for their singer yesterday and DxH apparently “busted a move.”
Here is another acapella video thanks to our audio whiz, Tom! Listen to it here! Comment below and tell us your thoughts! We will have more acapella videos soon!
Our good friend and frequent reader, Tom, kindly sent us the acapella version of Stiff Kittens! You can watch the video here! Make sure to thank Tom in the comments!
Davey just tweeted “Thank you. @getraddielater For today’s visions. May they soon spread. Worldwide.” The twitter user is Travis Kopach, who directed AFI’s Beautiful Thieves video. Our video actress told us exclusively that the director of the new video previously directed an AFI video. Thus, it’s safe to say Mr. Kopach directed the video. We have contacted Travis for more info!
An article from 2004 with MTV appeared in our radar this morning that featured Davey and Jade discussing how Blaqk Audio was originally never going to happen. In the article, MTV writes:
When their tour wraps in March, AFI will not work on the Electronic music side project Puget talked about in the fall. The guitarist said he was just thinking out loud and that he and Havok never considered recording something outside of AFI.
Well, we are sure glad they decided to do something with it! Where would we be without the sultry sounds of BA? Actually, don’t answer that. I don’t want to think of that possibility.

Tomorrow many large websites will be going dark for 24 hours to protest SOPA, the Stop Online Piracy Act. This bill, if passed, will affect media-based content on sites such as ours. Therefore, we have decided to partake in said protest.
If any news is found, it will be posted on our Twitter, Tumblr, and Facebook. If you support free speech, spread the word to your friends, blog about it, and spread it around on your social media sites.
Thank you for your cooperation!
Brooklyn, of the band Picture Me Broken, discusses Davey’s influence on her music and lifestyle in an interview with Revolver Magazine. She mentions discovering AFI’s music near the age of ten and goes on to say, “He has had a very positive effect on my life in terms of being a role model and I think that’s rare to find in rock musicians.” To read what else she had to say, check out the rest of the interview at Revolver Magazine.
We’d love to hear how AFI and Blaqk Audio have been a positive influence on your lives. Tell us below!
Some details have arisen through Davey’s tweets as well as our actress on set about the music video. So far we know that the video involves a car, shadows, darkness, and the song is “moody.”. So, discuss what song you think the video is for! Let’s hope your predictions are right and we get to see the video soon!
Davey tweeted just now that he was sitting and watching himself sing in the backseat of a car. This means that he was just watching the music video! Obviously, that means that the video is finished and DxH is viewing the finished product.
Last week, Davey said he hopes it will be released before February 1st. So, if all goes well, we should be seeing it within the next two weeks!
