Alkaline Trio

Alkaline Trio is an American punk rock band formed in McHenry, Illinois, in 1996 by guitarist and vocalist Matt Skiba, bassist and vocalist Dan Andriano, and drummer Mike Felumlee. The band's music is characterized by darkly romantic lyrics and themes, which often contrast with upbeat, catchy melodies and energetic performances. Skiba's distinctively nasal vocal tone and the group's penchant for melding pop-punk hooks with morose lyricism has garnered them a dedicated fanbase and critical acclaim within the punk community.

Over the years, Alkaline Trio has undergone several line-up changes, with the most stable core consisting of Skiba, Andriano, and drummer Derek Grant, who joined in 2003. Their discography has evolved from raw, visceral punk records to more polished, but no less impassioned, rock affairs. Notable albums like "Crimson," "Good Mourning," and "From Here to Infirmary" helped solidify their position as stalwarts of the punk rock scene of the early 2000s. While they've maintained a devoted following, their body of work has also explored various styles and influences, further evidenced by their more recent albums and EPs, including the introspective "Is This Thing Cursed?" Their series of "Past Live" albums serve as a testament to the band's longevity and enduring appeal, capturing the raw energy of live performances across their celebrated catalog.
