Alkaline Trio - Blood, Hair and Eyeballs (January 26, 2024) • Page 48

Same story for me. Found them on the Atticus comp and bought Good Mourning. Have been to probably 200-300 shows since then and never caught them somehow despite loving most of their discography. They were a "unicorn" band for me. Same thing with Sum 41 and I get too mark them off this year too

 

Alkaline Trio Are Still Having a Blast on Their Own Terms, Even 3 Decades and 10 Albums Later

 

Great article and it sounds like Atom was the one wanting to play deeper Trio cuts, which is really cool.

 

saw the ATL show last night, time of my goddamn life. 20+ years of listening and seeing them for the first time was everything i imagined it would be and then some. so much energy from the whole trio. the hour and a half felt like barely a half hour.

no Teenage Heart though. and no orange shirts at the merch table.

 

I hope they throw that back into the set before I go again Friday, I was surprised they didn’t play it and when I looked back and saw it was cut I was bummed

 

Has alkaline been going on closer to 9 or 10? Asking for a guy pushing 40 with a 6 month old at home.

 

They played 845-1005 in Austin (on a Tuesday night with hard out at 1030) a week ago

 

Saw them last night and they were fantastic, this is the best Matt has sounded in a really long time and Atom fits in perfectly, he's always so much fun to watch no matter who he's drumming for. Really made the new songs click even more for me too, they sounded awesome

 

I went to the Philly show the other night and it was honestly the most rowdy Trio show I’ve been to and it was killer. Also Drug Church is super fun !

 

Hot For Preacher is such a killer opener

 

Seeing them next weekend, which is Saturday... St Patrick's Day weekend... in Chicago.

We're gonna go NUTS in there.

 

My old ass decided to jump in the pit during we’ve had enough

 

Yep, two things we love in Chicago. St Patrick’s day and alkaline trio, it’s gonna be insane lol

 

They crushed hard tonight

Definitely a much different setlist than we got 2 weeks ago as well which was nice

 

Looks like In My Stomach and Fire Down Below are now officially on streaming platforms. Two of their best songs.

 

Lol I randomly check every now and then for Fire Down Below. That's awesome

 

Wow, two ALK3 songs I didn't know existed? Merry xmas to me.

 

Derek went so hard on Fire Down Below it's unfair. love that song

 

Awww yes. Agony & Irony finally on streaming!

Crimson was my first Trio record but I don't think I got on with this record as much but in hindsight, it's still pretty strong.

 

Can’t wait to see these guys tomorrow

 

Fuuuuck they added Warbrain the date after mine

 

Fucking eh, In My Stomach is awesome.

Dan was on a fucking heater for those Agony and Irony sessions.

Edit: For real, who heard Burned is the House and In My Stomach and said, no, we need Live Young, Die Fast and Lost and Rendered?

 

Urban Outfitters variant finally showed up and this thing is sweet. The packaging/sleeve and the record itself just feels like very high quality.

 

Worriers are killing it right now, getting settled in for a great night.

Might have to show these oldheads what Drug Church is all about...

 

Proud of you Chicago
