Alkaline Trio
 

Ive been diggin' these guys lately. I downloaded a few of their songs, and Im really liking their music. Private Eye or Burn would be the best Ive heared so far.

i like 'em...they remind of the "goo-goo dolls" when they first started out,not the shite band they morphed into.

From what Ive heard I like them. Of course I got hooked on them when everyone else did..which is when "time to waste" hit the radios. But since then Ive boughten their "Crimson" disk and I really like thier music too.

Only problem I have is some of their lyrics are BRUTAL.

"There's a lightning storm each and every night
Crashing inside you like motorbikes "

Ouch. Most of their songs have pretty good lyrics....but that one is just painful.

I dont really know what Genre to put them under. I'd say they're a little bit emeo. I hate emo, but these guys are allright.

Emo is so thrown around these days, I really believe it's lost the meaning it used to with the whole emo punk thing. Oh well, I'd say they're alternative and not bad.

the only song i know from them is armegeddon (i think they sang that)

and i liked it

ya they sang that.

ok then.. i heard it while playing tony hawks underground 2

lol ya me too. except its from THUG 1 not 2.

oh yeah... i forgot then.. then there is one song from them on thug 2 also.. not sure what it is called though

I used to be really into them (just take a look at my screen name, for Christ's sake). I really overplayed them, and I've kind of moved away from that kind of music, for the most part, but they're still a pretty kickass band.

Return, if you like them enough I'd purchase the 'Live on Hallowen' DVD. It's really good (and it's a performance here in Chicago), worth the 11 bucks or so that it costs.
