Jun 26, 2023It took me years of coming back to revisit this one to realize that I believe it's their best album since sing the sorrow. There isn't a track I actively want to skip.

Dec 23, 2015Honestly, this album unfortunately seems like a step back for AFI but also a step forward. It still isn't as good as Sing the Sorrow but it is better than the previous two album. It also has some very good songs such as I Hope You Suffer. I would recommend buying only the songs that appeal to you when getting this album.

Mar 13, 2014this album is great,davey havok shows what is the best in the A fire inside,musics like a deep slow panic is perfect,i hope you suffer and the weakest song in the album,and 17 crimes shows the style of classic afi,
ultimately Burials is the second best album of the band,not only defeat the sing the sorrow -
Oct 23, 2013This album is a very different type of AFI. It is VERY atmospheric and, much like a NIN album, takes focus and multiple listens to fully appreciate. This has some of the bands best writing and performances to date. The songs are catchy, emotive, and stick with you. Even the songs that seem underwhelming at first listen have grown on me after repeated listens. I highly recommend this album to fans.

Nov 4, 2013Burials is an album you’ll want to replay, especially as the days get darker and the weather gets colder.

Oct 22, 2013Burials is, barring a few missteps, a work of operatic melodrama set to bleak, bold, impeccable hooks. And that’s all it needs to be.
