Jade Errol Puget (born November 28, 1973) is the guitarist for American rock band AFI, and the keyboardist/synthesizer operator for the EBM duo Blaqk Audio.
Musical career
Before joining AFI in 1998, Puget played in various bands, including Loose Change and Redemption 87. His first album with AFI was Black Sails in the Sunset (1999). The first song he wrote for the band was "Malleus Maleficarum".[1] The band released The Art of Drowning in 2000, Sing the Sorrow in 2003 and Decemberunderground in 2006. AFI won a VMA for best rock video for "Miss Murder" in 2006.
Puget is also a member of Blaqk Audio with AFI bandmate Davey Havok. Their debut album, CexCells, was released on August 14, 2007.
Puget recently remixed Marilyn Manson's newest single "Heart-Shaped Glasses (When the Heart Guides the Hand)", released as an international bonus track from the album Eat Me, Drink Me (2007). He also recently remixed the song Tiger Army's "Where the Moss Slowly Grows" off the band's latest album Music From Regions Beyond. The song is only available through purchasing the album on iTunes. He also did some additional production on The Dear & Departed's debut album Something Quite Peculiar.
Personal life
Puget has a younger brother named Smith Puget, who is AFI's tour manager, a younger sister, and a younger half brother named Gibson Casian. Gibson reads the first segment of the untitled hidden poem on Sing the Sorrow.
Like the other current members of AFI, Jade is vegetarian, and he also shares the straight edge lifestyle with frontman Davey Havok.
Puget claimed to leave high school early due to a feeling of uselessness at school. In an interview he said "High school was just a waste of my time. I wanted to listen to punk, skate and go to shows. Once I got my [driver's] license, it was like nothing could keep me in school." He later took preliminary tests and got into UC Berkeley. He has a bachelor's degree in social theory and is the only member of AFI to graduate college as Davey, Adam and previous band members Geoff and Mark all dropped out after only a few months at college.
