What is the deal with preps likeing AFI's "Miss Murder". The other day I heard a girl listening to it and asked her if she knew any of their other songs and she said no. They will tell you they like it because it is on MTV. What is the deal with this? Someone please tell me

I agree, these preppy pricks can go to hell. I mean they're brainless, tasteless twits. That's why we let them have their MTV and their Staind. Don't worry, they're fair weather, next year they'll have another TRL band. It's just a shame to see a great band like AFI go through this. Unfortunately they're not the first, nor will they be the last to have this happen to them.

i dont know. some people just like to attach themselves to what is popular. i have been listening to AFI for more than 6 years, a lot longer than other people who claim to be true fans. they have been around for 15 years.i love them. they are my favorite band ever. unlike others, when i find a band or artist i like, i go to the store and buy their album. i dont just claim to like them because of the fame. it is the same way with other artists as well. the band yellowcard has even released another album since they were last seen on mtv. i bet if you asked one of their so called "fans" about the new album, they wouldnt know what you were talking about. i think people should stop claiming to be true fans when they are nothing of the sort. learn something about a band before you go around saying they are great. people need to really grow up.

Some 'preppy' girls who dont know other songs by AFI probibly like it due to the fact that it is mainstream and constantly heard on the radio, MTV, or sung by all their friends, it can be liked for stupid reasons such as wanting to be in a click, or good reasons such as liking the beat, rythm, and vocals of the song itself.

Here's some advice. Be an AFI fan, and just deal with the fact that not everybody who likes them cuts themselves, wears black eyeliner all the time, and doesn't think life is out to get them.

Its the same way with Panic! At The Disco.
The MOMENT any band that normal people [you and me] listen to hits MTV preps are all over it like maggots on death.
Just look at FLYLEAF [that is, if you listen to them].
They released an album a while ago, had 4 songs on myspace and you could have asked anyone "do you know FLYLEAF?" and they're like nope.
A week later they made their debut on MTV with I'm So Sick and now thats the "only song released".
Its pathetic how MTV screws over good bands. [but im sure MTVand the band dont see it like that, its just another way to get money.]
Dont worry about it, just completely ignore stupid people and pray that your favorite unoticed bands dont hit MTV.

why do you care if preps listen to AFI shouldnt you be glad a band you actually like is getting attention rather than just being pushed to the side?

What is your deal?? Why do you think that you have to act and dress a certain way to like music...Music is a form of expression and people should be able to listen to whatever form they want without people like you criticizing them...I think you need a reality check. So what if the "prep" didnt know any of their other songs. My advice to you to get over it.
Besides once you are out of high school there are no preps, geeks, losers, smokers, emo, or whatever clicks are at your school...let people be who they are and let them listen to what they do...you are one of the reasons why there is so much controversy about music...
Its because of people like you that others are afraid to be who they truely are...

oh I feel you!!!
Ok, not that I don't like when people like AFI cause of their new stuff, like they got a bunch of fans during Girls Not Grey, BUT they should listen to he old stuff too, which is AMAZING. I've been a fan for 7 years, so I love everything they do and it means the world to me.
So it kinda hurts that little preps claim them w/o knowing anything about them. "Davey Havok is SOOO HAAAWTTT" pisses me off! THERE ARE 3 OTHER GUYS IN THE BAND *******!!!
