coryemis Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 It's true. They have evolved a lot. I love their old stuff, but I like their new stuff. I will be buying the new album regardless of how many stupid motorcycles are on the cover. wtf does a motorcycle have to do with Alkaline Trio? I like the album title. xadamhudsonx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradedOnACurve Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I liked their last album. If this is the worst song on the album then I'm into it. If this is the best song then ruh-oh. coryemis, randomfortunepa and thomasj182 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coryemis Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 It would be better if that was the cover for the "I Wanna Be a Warhol" single I can totally see that fitting the one song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryq Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I like it. I was kinda hoping for a creepier sound to it (the "looking down at you" line reminded me of "watching you" from the heavens' album), but oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefwahoo Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 They have evolved a lot. This is the opposite of my opinion. I'd call a song like "Burn" evolving, I guess. I could deal with stuff like that. But this sounds like they've forgotten that they already wrote this song twelve times. But that's not exactly a fresh topic. I'll buy it if it's on vinyl and hope I like some of it. astrangerwithcandy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannonball Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I like the new song. Learned to expect this from them already. Almost gave up after Agony & Irony..but was pleasantly surprised with This Addiction. Looking foward to hearing this one and catching them on a supporting tour.

Werner Herzog Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Agony & Irony was the only (do I dare say) "poor" Alkaline Trio album in my opinion. I'm sure this one will be alright. mrc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryq Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Agony & Irony was the only (do I dare say) "bad" release in my opinion. I'm sure this album will be alright. not gonna lie: agony & irony is the alkaline trio album I've listened to the most in the past month... maybe ~5 times while walking to school, so it's not like I love it love it love it, but I've found that it's not as bad as I once thought it was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said, I've tried it while walking somewhere, didn't work. I tried one night while drinking a cup of coffee, couldn't get in to it. In fact, I've even tried to enjoy this album while falling asleep and I couldn't I don't know what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coryemis Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 for me "Crimson" is the odd release. Over produced and flashy. I liked it, but it is always last in line for me. ....American Scream, imo, their worst song, by far. Even the redo on Damnesia didn't help.

One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 All the albums eventually come around on me. I would like if they could put out a new album that hit me right away. coryemis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travis Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Songs not too bad, new album should be ok. A&I is the only Alk3 album I just absolutely cant listen to. Its so damn terrible. Werner Herzog and nick6ten 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randomfortunepa Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Sounds like a song that belongs with one of the recent Skiba side projects. Here's hoping Dan Andriano bums us out in a good way with his contributions. I liked Agony & Irony despite it sounding like they took songs from The Cars and tried to make them dark. I do think it was their weakest release even though I want to say Crimson was due to it feeling a little inconsistent and the fact I can't stand "Sadie." I just want some new trio drinking songs mixed in with some dark and creepy ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tittus Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 The A side of Agony & Irony is good. Crimson is definetly the black sheep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradedOnACurve Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I loved the song Sadie and Mercy Me but hated the rest of Crimson. Agony And Irony had a few decent songs but was meh overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfiend Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 agreed crimson is terrible, at least this new album appears to have an effort at some kind of artwork. Warhol homage or no. coryemis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
companyinkrecs Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 hoping for new Dan solo material soon, this has a been there/done that vibe to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
