1.0 out of 5 stars
Just a re-package, May 19, 2010
This review is from: The Lowdown (Audio CD)
To anybody wondering, this little item is simply a repackage of the UNAUTHORIZED biography that Chrome Dreams released and an extra disc interviews with the band. My whole problem with this is the whole "unauthorized" part...AFI receives absolutely NOTHING from the sale of this, not one penny, while the company who is releasing this WITHOUT AFI's consent is making it all. True, AFI is not in need of money, but neither are the Chrome Dreams management either. For me, it is still equivelant to stealing a groups art(by art, i mean music, videos,etc)from one of many online sites, and calling yourself a fan of the band. If AFI's name is on it, they should be benefiting from it financially, and they are not, therefore in my mind it is still stealing from AFI. You cannot have it both ways, if you claim to support your favorite musicians, than purchase their material legally and catch a show and pick up some REAL band released merchandise once in a while so they can get what they deserve for entertaining, inspiring, and helping us through another day, because no one wants to work for free. So for me this is a definate NO PURCHASE.
