Of the song, AFI guitarist Jade Puget, who also produced and mixed the band’s upcoming EP, shared:

“This was the ideal song to kick off the EP. From Adam’s big drum fill at the top all the way through to the end, it’s just a quick burst of frenetic energy. I brought the song in and was playing it for Davey and he threw out the line, ‘my Trash Bat’ and I thought, how can you lose with a title like that? What is a Trash Bat anyway? Who cares!”

Listen to “Trash Bat” below:

“Trash Bat” is taken from AFI’s upcoming five-song EP, The Missing Man, which is set to be released Dec. 7.
