Angel Du$t - "Someone once described Angel Du$t to me as, "if a hardcore band did the "There's Something About Mary" soundtrack". In other words, totally sick."
Chastity - "The best thing to come out of the Durham region since...since.....hmmmm..."
Child's Pose - "Awesome new post-punk band from the UK. Came highly recommended by Jonah Falco of Fucked Up."
Drug Church - "Never met these guys but I love their music and I'm more than happy that bands that are much cooler than AOF are willing to play shows with us."
Glassjaw - "AOF opened for them at the Opera House in Toronto in 2002. It took a couple years but we are returning the favour."
Moneen - "Moneen is the Sigfried to Alexisonfire's Roy...which one got attacked by the tiger? That one is Moneen."
Quicksand - "Heroes of ours from the days when they played interesting music on late night television. Post hardcore legends in the flesh."
The Dirty Nil - "Luke once brought me bacon back when he worked at a butcher... bacon bribes is a good way to get an opening slot on an AOF show. True story."
