''Alexisonfire'' is the first studio album released by the post-hardcore band Alexisonfire. It was released on October 31, 2002 and recorded when members Chris Steele, Wade MacNeil and Jesse Ingelevics were only 17 years old. In October 2005, the album was given gold certification as it sold over 50,000 units in Canada. The cover art was photographed by lead singer George Pettit at Ferndale Public School in St.Catharines, Ontario. Pictured is Cassandra Paolella (holding the knife) and Amanda Rietveld (opposite). It is based on the lyrics from "A Dagger Through the Heart of St. Angeles". There was also an alternative cover art released, which just depicts the band's logo and name. The lyrics and title of ".44 Caliber Love Letter" are influenced by a line from the iconic 1986 David Lynch movie ''Blue Velvet'': "I'll have to send you a love letter! Straight from my heart, fucker! You know what a love letter is? It's a bullet from a fucking gun, fucker!" Another Lynch film, ''Eraserhead'', is mentioned by name in "Where No One Knows". On January 14, 2014, a remastered version of the album by Dine Alone Records was released. The album is considered a major landmark of the post-hardcore genre. ==Reception== ''NME'' listed the album as one of "20 Emo Albums That Have Resolutely Stood The Test Of Time". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alexisonfire (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
