but that’s not stopping AFI from releasing yet another pair of new songs, as they did in January and February.

But perhaps the most noteworthy thing about “Dulcería” isn’t the video, but the collaborator that lifelong musical partners Davey Havok and Jade Puget brought in to help the band. Co-written by Billy Corgan, the track is basically a Noel Gallagher appearance short of the Smashing Pumpkins’ 2019 tour.
“Billy and I have a great creative connection when we’re writing together,” Puget said in a statement. “It was inspiring to work with such a talented and legendary songwriter and ‘Dulcería’ is a testament to that.”

The track, along with “Far Too Near,” brings the total count of Bodies tracks up to six ahead of its June 11 release. Take a listen to the other new track below.
