AFI’s 2006 release Decemberunderground marked a significant shift, trading the more experimental and gothic overtones of Sing the Sorrow for a more polished, radio-friendly hard rock sound that yielded their first number-one hit.
- Decemberunderground debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, selling over 183,000 copies in its first week.
- The album spawned three singles: "The Leaving Song, Pt. II", "Miss Murder", and "Love Like Winter".
- Miss Murder, the album's lead single, became AFI's highest-charting song at the time, peaking at number 23 on the Billboard Hot 100.
