US rock band AFI have relaunched their website with a new feature that revolves around Twitter. Specifically, fans are being asked to tweet with the hashtag #medicate (the band’s new single).When a certain number of tweets is reached, new content is revealed on the site – although right now, that content appears to be just song titles from the band’s new album.

The band are signed to UMG subsidiary DGC/Interscope Records.
