The Missing Man, released on December 7, 2018, through Ex Noctem Nacimur, was AFI's first EP since 336 EP/Now the World Picture Disk back in 2002. The band announced it on October 26 along with its lead single, "Get Dark". The lineup was the one that had held since 1998: Davey Havok singing, Adam Carson on drums, Hunter Burgan on bass and keyboards, and Jade Puget on guitar and keyboards.
The Ukiah band had long since traveled from hardcore punk through horror punk and emo-tinged post-hardcore into alternative and gothic rock, and this short set sits comfortably in that darker, glossier country. "Get Dark" lives up to its title: brooding and nervy, with Havok's voice coiling over Puget's riffs before the chorus bursts. It's a brief, moody stopover between the 2017 album AFI and Bodies in 2021.
