"The Missing Frame" comes from Decemberunderground, AFI's 2006 album, and when it went to radio as the album's third single early the following year it climbed to 17 on the Alternative Songs chart. Davey Havok, who told Kerrang! it was the one song on the album with whoas in it, called it proto-punk with a few unmistakable U2 moments, and you can hear both: Jade Puget's guitars ring out wide and chiming, Hunter Burgan and Adam Carson push hard underneath, and Havok's voice soars over a gang of backing singers.
Jerry Finn produced it and mixed it with Chris Lord-Alge, polishing the band's gloomy drama into something big enough for arenas.
