	'''Articles of Faith''' ([[1981]]-[[1985]]) was one of the oldest and most important bands of the Chicago punk scene. Originally they went by the name "[[Direct Drive]]," but changed over to AoF. Fronted by [[Vic Bondi]], the scope of AoF's impact went beyond musical boundries. They might have been the first true hardcore band in Chicago and were instumental in promoting and organizing shows. Specifically, they were responsible for organizing the shows at the [[Centro-American Social Club]] (CASC). They rented out the space, booked and promoted the shows. They even put up the out of town bands and provided a hang-out spot at their house-- which was lovingly called, "Big Blue." They played their final show in July 1985 at the [[Cubby Bear]].

The band reunited in 1991 for a European tour which resulted in the release of a live album through the "Your Choice Live Series" from Germany's Your Choice Records. They reunited again in 2010 for some shows in Chicago, including Riot Fest. That same year they released a 12" EP of new material.
