Alkaline Trio Band • Page 108

I’m not sure about a digital/cd only release. Just that the vinyls are only being preordered until February. From the sounds of it they aren’t releasing any afterwards. Maybe the DVD will still be available, but vinyls are unlikely. With the way this is dropping it seems like they’re just taking pre-orders until the cut off and then pressing the orders/putting bundles together.

 

Interesting and possibly disappointing. I'd love to have these so I can listen to it on my iPhone. I know if I buy the Blu Ray that I probably wouldn't ever watch it or only watch it once.

 

I'm different, I'll watch the Blu Ray a lot but if I'm listening to music I'd still rather listen to the proper album. I do hope the mp3s are available though

 

When the time comes i don’t mind sharing the digital versions of the vinyls I got. I only got GM, A&I, TA, and MSIT.

 

I saw the Alkaline Trio Facebook page reply to a comment saying mp3s will be included.

 

You're a hero.

 

That's interesting, I might have to look into getting the Blu Rays now.

 

I was just digging though, I forget which video it was on but someone posted a screenshot of an email from Kings Road that said downloads don't come with the blu ray. I never really expected them to, 5 bucks a filmed album is kind of a deal lol

Edit: was a reply to a comment on the Agony teaser vid

 

Yeah I did some research too and saw that screenshot. I actually emailed Kings Road and asked them so once I hear from them I will pass it along.

 

An excerpt from the Tranny Confessions of Punk Rocks Most Infamous by Laura Jane Grace book about Matt and Alkaline.

Yeah that was one my favorite parts from Tranny

 

That’s hilarious!

 

Anybody else listen to that new Alkaline Trio podcast, As You Were?

 

Rank Your Records: Matt Skiba Plays Favorites with Alkaline Trio's Albums

 

Gotta disagree pretty hard here lol but I respect it

Him and Dan definitely disagree on the setlist a lot I'm assuming

Rank Your Records: Bassist Dan Andriano Rates All Eight Alkaline Trio Albums

 

That’s a strange ranking but I get why he ranks them that way

 

“At the time, you guys were engaging with your fans pretty actively with the Blood Pact fan club. Did seeing some negative reactions influence how you felt about the album?
I don’t really give a shit, honestly. We do what we do. I think that is us marching to the beat of our own drum. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it. If you like it, thank you for listening. If you don’t like it, I don’t fucking care.”

Lol skiba gonna skiba

 

Very interesting to hear him go through all of the albums, even if I disagree completely with the ranking haha. Good Mourning and Maybe I’ll Catch Fire are waaaaay too low.

 

Yeah just surprising to see Good Mourning almost last for Skiba and first for Dan

I do think it's cool to see Goddammit there though

 

The Glenn stuff was well known, first I've heard of any problem with Mike. Has that ever been brought up before? I mean he wasn't specific but 'glad I don't have to be in a band with that guy anymore' is pretty strong lol

 

Very interesting to see the contrast between Dan and Matt’s rankings.

Now I wanna see Derek’s haha

 

Derek's would be interesting since he's not on three of them. Would like to hear in a little depth what he thinks of the drums on them

 

Matt did a podcast last year maybe where he mentioned that one of the drummers was a jerk with women and did something to one of his female friends that led to him getting fired. He didn't mention which drummer it was though and I don't know a lot of about the Trio's history to guess who.

 

FYI I got an email from Kings Road and they informed me that the Blu Rays DO NOT come with a digital download.

 

Yeah I'm pretty sure that was Glenn.
