AFI Premiere New Track, Trash Bat

Check out the latest single from the band's upcoming EP, The Missing Man

November 30, 2018

Last month, AFI premiered Get Dark, a track from their upcoming new EP, The Missing Man. Now, the band has released a new track, Trash Bat, which serves as the EP's opener. You can check it out below.

Guitarist Jade Puget says of the track, "This was the ideal song to kick off the EP. From Adam's big drum fill at the top all the way through to the end, it’s just a quick burst of frenetic energy. I brought the song in and was playing it for Davey and he threw out the line, ‘my Trash Bat’ and I thought, how can you lose with a title like that? What is a Trash Bat anyway? Who cares!"

Check out Trash Bat below:

The Missing Man drops next Friday, December 7th.
