Go Behind the Scenes of AFI’s Beautiful Thieves
You have to give AFI credit for catering to their fans, who are known to be quite rabid in their dissection of the band’s songs and videos — from hidden messages to overall themes. The premiere of “Beautiful Thieves” was no different, and to help answer some of those questions, AFI has released a behind-the-scenes look at the video.
In the six-minute piece each member of AFI shares insight on the song itself, the meaning of the video, or what it’s like on the set of a video shoot. In describing the overall video, lead vocalist Davey Havok remarks, “[It] shows people actually being forced to be responsible for their actions. We implement that retribution, if you will.”
