AFI have yet to share a title or release date for the follow-up to their 2017 self-titled album.
The forthcoming record will also contain the first new music from the band since 2018, when they dropped their latest EP, ‘The Missing Man’.
In the years since, frontman Davey Havok and guitarist Jade Puget have released music with their side project, Blaqk Audio. The electronic outfit dropped their fourth studio album, ‘Only Things We Love’, in 2019.
