harkens back to 1997, when Matt Skiba, a bike messenger from working class Chicago 'burb McHenry, gave up the drums for the guitar and began his quest for the perfect balance of lyrical hell and pop heaven.Glenn Porter and bassist Rob Doran would debut as Alkaline Trio for the Sundials 7.Dan Andriano replaced Doran prior to the For Your Lungs Only EP, adding a second voice and songwriting style that complemented and contrasted with Skibas, and the signature Alkaline Trio sound was born."Radio," "Nose Over Tail" and the latter's title track.EPs, compilation tracks and others odds 'n' ends followed later in 2000.Smoking Popes drummer Mike Felumlee to the fold.Singles "Private Eye" and "Stupid Kid" and staples "Crawl" and "Another Innocent Girl" became instant classics to the exponentially growing Alkaline Trio fan base that buoyed the record into the top 200 and packed clubs and theaters, transforming the band into a formidable worldwide draw.Good Mourning, as Derek Grant came aboard for the perfection of the Trio sonic identity that had been evolving since '97."We've Had Enough," the cloyingly bittersweet "All On Black," a yearning "100 Stories" and cautionary love and death serials "Emma" and "This Could Be Love," Good Mourning crashed into the Top 40, saw the band's debuts on Late Night with Conan O'Brien and The Late Show With David Letterman, and received raves from Rolling Stone, SPIN, Entertainment Weekly and the cover of Alternative Press.Crimson delivers on this promise in spades.As "Time To Waste" builds from mounting menace to a majestic and traumatic chorus and segues directly into "The Poison," an Andriano barnburner reminiscent in spirit of those I Lied My Face Off era sides, though played with a fierce precision to which the early Trio could only aspire."Burn" updates Skiba's songwriting acumen with twists and touches worthy of vintage Sisters of Mercy and Depeche Mode, while "Dethbed," "Mercy Me" and "Fall Victim" find an ever maturing but still familiar Alkaline Trio sound resurfacing like a long lost friend.Just as Alkaline Trio were about to start recording Crimson, Matt Skiba fractured his wrist skateboarding.Though it was a minor break, and he was only in a cast for three weeks, the break pushed back the Trio's recording schedule and the pending album's release.Skiba was anxious to get back on his board (though an avid skater since the age of ten, he had abandoned it for three months in fear of injuring himself again and further delaying the album's May 24th release).But, after 15 minutes, Skiba dropped into a pool and broke his left arm.Now finally healed, Skiba is anxious to get Alkaline Trio back on the road.After all, the collective misfortunes that may have hobbled lesser acts have only provided Alkaline Trio with five studio albums worth of increasingly stronger material.Acoustic and Electric Sets Will Span Entire Catalog
