Alkaline Trio recently recorded three songs with Travis Barker (Blink 182) on production. The latest (and second) single is "Bleeding Out," which is on digital platforms now and will be released on limited 7".

"The release of the new songs we did with Travis Barker and Adam Hawkins mirrors the recording process. We’re releasing them in the order in which we recorded them, which I feel mirrors the excitement and energy felt in the studio when we were writing and recording them. 'Bleeding Out' has an energy and a spontaneity that reflects the vibe in the studio as accurately as anything could. I’m really excited to share this song with our fellow earthlings. You can sing and dance along to it, and sadly, it’s a song of our time,” Matt Skiiba says of the session + single.

The singles are also the band's first studio session with a lineup of guitarist/vocalist Skiba, bassist/vocalist Dan Andriano, and drummer Atom Willard. 

To further highlight the Barker connection, Alkaline Trio is currently on the road in support of Blink 182.

It's a definite move away from the ill-advised adult rock of 2008's Agony & Irony, but it falls far from being a primal … Read more

Dear Matt Skiba, I recently picked up your band's latest release in the cut out bin at my favorite used CD store. After your last official long player, Crimson, which by the way sucked, I have given up all hope that your Alkaline Trio would ever release anything worth my time. Now here we are, Matt, with your first major … Read more

I haven't met anyone in my life that is affiliated with hardcore or punk that doesn't like at least a handful of Alkaline Trio songs.

The bus I'm on smells terrible: a mixture of body odour, cheap beer, and anticipation. It's filled to the brim with concert goers, mostly teenagers, but also a handful of adults who are dressed like teenagers. We're on our way to the Toronto leg of Riot Fest. This is the … Read more
