专辑介绍：
Crash Love 是A Fire Inside（AFI）的第8张录音室专辑，计划在9月29日经Interscope唱片发行。制作人是Joe McGrath 以及Jacknife Lee。
06年的Decemberunderground巡演后，AFI用了两年的时间来创作，还抽空组了几个编外乐队，包括贝司手Hunter Burgan的Hunter Revenge，以及重组了他的老乐队 The Force。主唱Davey Havok 和吉他手 Jade Puget 组了个名为 Blaqk Audio的电声团体。Havok还趁Puget给专辑混音的空当发布了一个时装品牌。08年AFI宣布已经完成专辑的创作，正和制作人David Bottrill在录音室加紧专辑的制作。随后几个月，乐队的官网重新设计后上线，发布了Begin Transmission的主题，邀请歌迷参与录音带拍摄以及专辑的合声。几千份申请中有5位幸运儿参加了09年2月在洛杉矶Conway Studio的录制。
今年2月，AFI和Bottrill关系闹僵，改由Joe McGrath （Blink-182的制作人）和Jacknife Lee制作他们的新专辑。尽管如此，他们并没有重写曲子，还是沿用了已经录好的部分。和Muse的The Resistance一样，他们新专辑的曲目也是通过Twitter一首一首公布的。
谈到这张专辑，贝司手Burgan称“听上去更加摇滚。音乐上，比上一张Decemberunderground更能迅速让人接受。”主唱Havok则说，“我个人觉得没有哪一张AFI的专辑比这个更棒了……这张专辑会使我们被更多的人记住。”
首支单曲Medicate在8月25日由iTunes开始数字发行，9月1日开始在电台播出，同时被收录到了吉他英雄的新作（Guitar Hero 5）里。专辑的B-Sides也会通过各种渠道发行。

=========== 原英文介绍 ===========
Crash Love is the upcoming eighth studio album by the rock band AFI. Produced by Joe McGrath and Jacknife Lee, it is scheduled for release on September 29, 2009 through Interscope Records.
Following the touring cycle for 2006's Decemberunderground, AFI spent two years writing and recording their next album while also working on a number of side projects: bassist Hunter Burgan started Hunter Revenge and briefly reunited with his old band The Force, while singer Davey Havok and guitarist Jade Puget recorded and performed as the electronic act Blaqk Audio. Havok also launched a fashion line while Puget worked on remixing and production for other musical artists. In November 2008 AFI announced that they had finished writing their next album and would be recording it with producer David Bottrill. The following month the band's official website was redesigned and relaunched, and a contest entitled 'Begin Transmission' was announced in which fans were invited to submit homemade videos to be considered for a spot to record backing vocals on the album. Thousands of entries were received and personally reviewed by the band members, and the five winners recorded their parts with the band at Conway Studios in Los Angeles in February 2009.
In January 2009 AFI split with Bottrill in favor of producers Joe McGrath (who had worked with Morrissey, Alkaline Trio, and Blink-182) and Jacknife Lee. However, they continued working on the same songs and did not abandon any of the material that had already been recorded. The album's title was announced as Crash Love in February 2009, and in July its release date was set as September 29. A viral marketing campaign was used to reveal the album's tracks, with songs announced one-by-one on the band's website as fans sent messages to a Twitter account. The full track listing and album art were reported by various music publications on August 21.
Speaking about the album's sound, Burgan remarked that 'This is definitely more of a rock album–more immediate and definitely more of a focused, direct approach musically. Compared to Decemberunderground, where some of the songs were more subtle, these are more in-your-face.' In announcing the completion of Crash Love, Havok stated that 'personally, I've never been more proud of an AFI record.' '. . .but it definitely feels like that's what we've achieved: created the album by which we'll be remembered', stated Havok in an interview done with Total Assault.
The album's first single, 'Medicate', became available for purchase through iTunes on August 25, 2009, was released to radio stations September 1, and is included as a playable track in the video game Guitar Hero 5. Several b-sides will also be available through iTunes, which will offer both regular and deluxe editions of the album: 'Too Late for Gods' and 'Breathing Towers to Heaven' are available with pre-orders, while the deluxe edition also includes exclusive versions of both of these songs plus '100 words', 'Fainting Spells', 'We've Got the Knife', and 'Where We Used to Play'.
