It’s been 14 years since Alkaline Trio released their first fulllength
album, Goddamnit. In that time, they’ve toured the
world, sold over a million records and expanded their sound
beyond their original straight-ahead punk style, incorporating
more melody and production. Now with My Shame Is True,
their eighth studio album, Alkaline Trio have honed their
songwriting craft to a new high, coming with their strongest
set of songs to date. With producer extraordinaire Bill
Stevenson (member of All, Descendents, Black Flag, producer
of As I Lay Dying, Rise Against, NOFX, Against Me! and many
more) at the dials, the album has all the crunch and verve of
classic pop punk. Coming off the much-lauded This Addiction,
which the LA Times hailed as the “band’s best album in years,”
Alkaline Trio will awe old and new fans alike with their
continued quest for pop punk perfection.
