- Release Notes ————————————————————- -
Celebrated punk rock cult heroes, Alkaline Trio have announced the release of
their forthcoming album, This Addiction, on February 23 via Epitaph
Records/Heart & Skull.
Recorded and produced by the band with help from longtime cohort Matt Allison
at Atlas Studios in Chicago, This Addiction marks Alkaline Trio’s first
release on their imprint label Heart & Skull and first with their parent
label Epitaph Records.
The album also finds the Trio revisiting their punk roots while moving
forward creatively.
“This record is a rock record but our punk rock upbringing definitely shines
through, more so than our last few records,” singer/guitarist Matt Skiba
recently told Spinner.com. “The vibe is similar to our humble beginnings.
It’s a step forward but I also think it has glimmers of our past in it.”
Fans can visit www.ThisAddiction.org where they have the opportunity to
stream the title track and first single “This Addiction,” in exchange for a
Twitter or Facebook posting. A metaphoric crowd pleaser, “This Addiction” is
“about a relationship gone bad and, for some reason, you just can’t quit it,”
Skiba told Spinner.com. The single is also currently available for sale on
iTunes and at other digital retailers.
The album’s title track and first single wastes no time in setting the tone
of the album as it rips and roars with Matt Skiba’s exceptional vocals and
signature guitar riffs, bassist and co/vocalist Dan Andriano’s thumping
low-end and drummer Derek Grant’s steadfast beats. From soon-to-be
fan-favorites like the Andriano led rocker “Dine, Dine My Darling” and
politically charged anthem “The American Scream” to the sonically mesmerizing
rhythm and lyrics of “Dorothy” and the thrilling sing-along “Draculina,” This
Addiction showcases Skiba, Andriano and Grant’s abounding gift for
songwriting and crafting passionate punk fueled rock that will make fans fall
in love with them all over again.
“I think that we wanted to make a punk rock record that we’ve been describing
as ‘thinking-man’s punk,’” said Skiba. “We wanted to do something that’s fun
but also interesting and lyrically, something that will be fun for people to
read along to and hopefully understand.”
The band’s seventh studio album, This Addiction, will be available as a
standard CD, a limited Deluxe CD/DVD edition (containing two bonus songs,
four acoustic tracks and a full length concert DVD), as well as Gatefold LP
vinyl. Epitaph will also have exclusive items signed by the band, rare vinyl
and Limited Collector’s bundles – all with a standard digital download or a
Deluxe Digital Download. Pre-order This Addiction here.
Alkaline Trio first emerged from Chicago in 1996 and has since released the
full length studio albums Goddamnit, Maybe I’ll Catch Fire, From Here To
Infirmary, Good Mourning, Crimson and last year’s Agony & Irony, which was
the highest charting record for the band’s to date. The band is comprised of
Skiba, Andriano and drummer Derek Grant, all of whom are partners in Heart &
Skull.
