I love AFI, I love Blaqk Audio, so very interested in this news from Davey and Jade, who have a new straight edge hardcore band called XTRMST.  The album is self-titled and will be out November 18 via Steve Aoki's Dim Mak records. The band have released the following statement:

We are XTRMST

"The straightedge philosophy is something that we gravitated toward at a young age, drawn by concepts and ideals that seem almost foreign in modern society. Like much of the other subcultures we were a part of growing up, it put us at odds with 99% of the people around us, which was something we embraced. It seemed natural that this crucial ideology would find a musical expression.

For the release of XTRMST, we are extremely excited to be partnering with Dim Mak and Steve. This record is one of the most important we’ve made. The songs are of purity, passion and truth. May they speak to you.” – XTRMST
