336 is a 10-inch vinyl picture disk released by the alternative rock band AFI released on December 2, 2002 through DreamWorks Records, and available exclusively at Hot Topic. It contains two songs, "Now the World" and "Reivers Music". It is considered to be the beginning of the Clandestine Mystery that continued in their album Sing the Sorrow.

Only 5000 copies were made, but the contents of 336 were later put onto the "Girl's Not Grey" single as B-sides. A newer recording of "Now the World" can be found on the UK release of Sing the Sorrow and was available on the band's website for a limited time.

Etchings

On one side of the record is etched "Nothing from Nowhere" whilst on the other side is etched "I'm No One at All", both of which are lyrics from the song "Miseria Cantare" - the opening track of Sing the Sorrow.

Mystery

336 is considered the starting point for the Clandestine Mystery, which revolves around Clandestine, the short film AFI released on DVD, included with Sing the Sorrow's special edition. The administrator of AFI's official message board mentioned that 336 wasn't important, it was simply "what came before".
