Mark said that about First Time and Pin The Grenade and those are definitely Enema/TOYPAJ sounding. Mark hit the nail on the head describing those two songs.

Those two, Darkside, Heaven, Heart To Speak Of, and Run Away are the bees knees.

Matt needs do something about Heavens!

 

for the hell of it, i reworked the tracklisting for This Addiction, swapping out some awful album tracks with better b-sides and alternative recordings: This Addiction Reboot, a playlist by Kirbie Bennett on Spotify

 

But no "Dine, Dine My Darling". What the . . . !?

 

i think it works better as a b-side, haha. just my opinion though. i do enjoy that song!

 

Easily one of my favorites here (it's better than the title track and certainly better than Dorothy, in my opinion) and I think one of Dan's best songs.

 

I’m kind of surprised these guys haven’t put on a live stream from the metro or something of that nature.

 

I thought about that too. I'd love to see them do one.

 

Im betting Skiba isnt in Chicago unless he needs to be, and its been way too quiet from the Trio camp ever since the Bad Religion tour was cancelled. I get it.. Skiba focuses on blink and his new side projects. Im hoping Dan surprises us with a new Emergency Room record in the next year or two at LEAST..

 

Dan lives in Florida and Matt lives in LA so would definitely take effort to get together and play

Would have loved a Halloween at Metro stream though

 

BR/Alk3 would have been cool, and if
They had that time together maybe they would have been able to talk new music ideas

 

Yeah i really hope that tour still gets to happen at some point but, unfortunately, I have a feeling blink will become priority for Matt when the time comes.

Matt’s taking the quarantine stuff very serious too, so if anything like a live stream show happens I will be very surprised.

 

I listened to ITTC today, and it's still such a damn good album, Matt and Dan really killed it.

 

ALKALINE TRIO

Maybe I’ll Catch Fire picture discs for the 20 year anniversary.

 

It's my second favorite album from them. So good front to back.

 

Agony & Irony is the shit. I've been listening to it this week. Definitely my 3rd favorite from them. The production is timeless and the songs hit hard. Underrated album.

 

In Vein is one of my favorite Trio songs.

 

Agony is good for sure, but after Do You Wanna Know I don't really care about any of the songs. Easily my second least favorite

 

Definitely some good Alk3 songs on there.

 

The first two tracks I adore

 

Calling All skeletons
In vein
Ruin it
Lost and Rendered (the shit and very underrated! I feel like this song could be on the latest blink album)
Into the Night
Fire Down Below
Do You Wanna Know
Burned Is The House

Super solid songs right there.

I’ve always been partial to Live Young, Die Fast too. The vocal melodies in that song are beautiful.

 

In My Stomach is beautiful.

 

Do You Wanna Know is a top tier Trio track to me. A fucking perfect song.

 

"Do You Wanna Know" is one of Alkaline's best songs. It's really the only song I care for on Agony. There are some great b-sides from it though, like "Burned is the House" and "Fire Down Below." It's a bummer those two aren't on spotify.

 

Also, for the fun of it, I once again played around with Crimson's tracklisting and made a playlist for anyone interested: Kirbie's Crimson
