So glad they haven't sold out just like my other favorite emo bands, Green Day (so heavy, look out Slayer), Good Charlotte (not corny at all- leave them alone Eddie Vedder!), and the best band ever A Simple Plan. I hear they got a hot tub! I didn't know they had those in French Canada.

    I saw them at Starland Ballroom in New Jersey in 2019; they had so much energy on stage. I bought one of their CDs on the way out and listened to it endlessly throughout the pandemic. It honestly helped keep me sane. And it's a good thing I bought the CD because it's surprisingly hard to find their music online! I'm glad they're finally starting to get the recognition that they deserve. I can tell you that Starland was hopping that night when they were playing!

    To those that are just discovering AiF right now, it might seem like they just came out of nowhere and became an overnight success. WRONG! Years of toiling away, playing to thralls of devoted fans - it’s all come to this! Anyone doubting their talent only need look at just how much of an influence they’ve had on Machine Gun Kelly’s new sound. That guy knows what’s up!

    My soul sister went to Harvard back in 2019 and I used to take the train up to visit her all summer long but back then people in her dorm were kinda dunkin' on AiF. Apparently up around the Boston market good music is their kryptonite but then one day we're having lunch at the local poké spot, the Kravitz Bowl, and this song came on the radio! We were so stoked we called my friend Dani in California because he's the one who first played us AiF. He pulled over while driving through Beverly Hills just to jump out and do a little victory dance, when some boujie old lady who was all fancy-like told him "settle down" but Dani shot back "ain't nobody gonna tell me how to live!" Too funny. Anyway, stoked to see AiF getting the recognition they deserve. Probably time for me dig up my t-shirt and put it back in the laundry rotation. :)

    My younger sister was 19 and met the guys outside after a gig. She was really going through a period of understanding and finding herself. She thought throwing herself at some budding rockstars would give her validation. These guys are so sweet that they just talked to her until the sun came up about true emotions and life’s journeys we take. Told her to find someone who really cares for her and sees her for the beautiful person she is not as someone to use.
    They wrote this song soon after. I think maybe that they wrote it about her!

    Trevor is an absolute great person as well as a great artist. I remember meeting him in person and I asked him why they hadn’t taken off as much as they probably should have at that point and he said “I know….. You know….. but THEY don’t know.”

    I opened up for them when they played in Victoria BC. I'm loving their new sound! The drummer was awesome! Hope they still play that song ' Shorts in January'? ' Loved that one! Don't change too much :)

    I'm so stoked to see August is Falling finally getting their roses! The first time I heard August is Falling was in the parking lot of a Wawa in Delco, loitering with my friends. It was so good I almost dropped my half gallon of iced tea lemonade, I'll never forget it : (

    I first heard AiF on the radio, stereo, just after some Mr. Mister, and they instantly became my favorite band. My friends and I have been running around like three blind mice trying to find as many of their songs as possible, and having an expert deconstruct one like this just makes it all seem like a dream. Thanks so much!

      ​@@AlphanumericCharacters Lol it's not all bad here. There's a pretty decent local scene. Just too many boomer bogans and aging metal heads that think anything that was made after Dead Man's Trail is automatic garbage.
      I actually (like actually actually) used to tend bar at the football stadium, and we had to take the lids off the bottle of Coke, so that they couldn't be used as projectiles. This was at an Adele concert. Gives you some idea of what we're dealing with here
      I hope you're right that they're coming back though. Maybe now that they're finally popping, they'll get a bit more respect :(
