AFI to Tour Australia & New Zealand This November 2006!

Sydney, AU (Universal Music Australia) - On the heels of their US No 1 album Decemberunderground, AFI announce their first Australasian tour since 2003. In addition to return engagements in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney, AFI will also be playing shows for the first time in Adelaide, Perth and Auckland.

AFI's latest album, Decemberunderground (out now through Universal Music), debuted at No 1 on the US Billboard Chart, No 3 on Australia's ARIA chart, and charted in the Top 20 on New Zealand's RIANZ chart. AFI continue to avoid categorisation with Decemberunderground, fusing their unique blend of rock with electronic, hip-hop, New Wave and pop. Without doubt, Decemberunderground is AFI's most adventurous step to date.

Having sold out every date of their last tour of Australia, AFI will now take their explosive live performance - which has moved SPIN magazine to name them one of the 25 greatest live acts of all time - to large venues in twice as many cities. The aggressive, energetic and almost epic AFI live show never fails to leave fans wishing for more. The spectacle of thousands of fans singing every word to every song - from earlier albums through the genius of Decemberunderground - should be enough in and of itself to make the AFI tour one of the most memorable of the year.

Often considered the world's most intensely worshipped band, AFI's fan base continues to grow in size and intensity. Leaving a trail of sold out shows behind them on their current world tour, AFI are in high demand around the globe. Don't miss your chance to see the other side to rock's superstars of 2006 as they bring Decemberunderground to life in November.
