Hi peeps as you all know my name is MOHAMAD BASREEN BIN AHMAD 19 and study at Unifield Technology College in Business Study since 2010, today my topic is the history of most favorite screamo band ever. Why I choose this topic for the English Online Assignment is because I like this topic and I want to share to all of you about the music in me. All of us have an idol,doesnt metter its being inspiration on life or give encouraging words in your life. For me, music are part if my life. Unfortunely they have been breakup since this year and Im felt so sad about that. As we start, I'll introduce to you all about this band. Alexisonfire (pronounced "Alexis on Fire") was a five-piece, Juno-nominated post-hardcore band that formed in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada in 2001. The band consisted of George Pettit (vocals), Dallas Green (guitar, piano, vocals), Wade MacNeil (guitar, vocals), Chris Steele (bass), and Jordan Hastings (drums).
They describe their music as "the sound of two Catholic high-school girls in mid-knife-fight" (a reference to their song "A Dagger Through the Heart of St. Angeles", also the inspiration for their debut album cover art). When the band came out of the underground like an "utterly captivating car-accident-in-progress" in late 2001, it was enough to impress critics as well as earning their self-titled debut album a gold certification in Canada.
The band has released three more very successful studio albums: Watch Out! in 2004, Crisis in 2006, and Old Crows/Young Cardinals in 2009, each achieving platinum certification in their native country.
In August 2011, George posted a message to fans on the band's official website stating that with the departure of two members, Alexisonfire would issue several special releases and complete a Canadian farewell tour before parting ways.
Dallas Green informed the rest of the band of his intention to leave Alexisonfire in 2010, and has not been an active member of the band since their tour ended in that year. Green agreed not to announce his departure until the rest of the band decided on their future plans. On February 14, 2011, on their official Twitter page, Alexisonfire announced they had been writing new music for their fifth studio album, describing it as "so heavy it's going to make Dog's Blood look like a ska record". However, on August 5, 2011, Alexisonfire announced their intent to break up. In the statement, George Pettit cited Dallas Green's departure from the band to focus solely on City and Colour, Wade MacNeil's departure to join another band, later revealed to be as the new vocalist for Gallows, and other personal issues among the remaining members as reasons for breaking up. Pettit also described the break up as not being "amicable". Alexisonfire are planning on celebrating their tenth anniversary with one last headlining Canadian tour and "a series of releases", although Green has expressed reluctance to take part in any further shows with the band.
I have full of thier album, and their breakup spread through all over malaysia because all of malaysian screamo band always keep Alexisonfire as ther influence in their music. So thats all I want to share to all of you who have been visit this page, hopefully you can heard their latest debut album in youtube! Bye bye
