Alkaline Trio

It’s been 13 years since Alkaline Trio released their first full-length album, Goddamnit. In that time, they’ve toured the world, sold over a million records, and expanded their sound radically beyond their original straight-ahead punk style, incorporating production slick enough to earn them mass exposure on outlets like MTV’s The Hills. Now comes an amazing retrospective of those 13 years, Damnesia, as ALK3 takes to the studio to record acoustic versions of 13 fan favorites and 2 new songs. These are not throwaway versions, but powerful reimagining’s that drive as hard as the originals while bringing out the melodic greatness of these classics – a radio hit like “This Could Be Love” now features moody piano, a Matt Skiba vocal take to die for, and will connect immediately with every fan who ever loved the song. With the band on their Damnesia tour all summer promoting the new versions, Damnesia will quickly become a fan must-have release.
