For many it would come as a surprise that AFI would be eligible as soon as 2018, but they toiled in relative obscurity for over a decade before they achieved any real level of success.  Once they did, their Hardcore Punk brand of Emo caught on and gained them a serious amount of fans.  Having said that, this is one band that will have to have a massive amount of success over the next ten years to receive any serious Hall consideration, as should any Emo designated band receive induction as it stands now won’t be them.
