ALKALINE TRIO – My Shame Is True (Repress) – LP – Vinyl

LP – Black Vinyl.

2013 release from the Punk-Pop band recorded with Bill Stevenson of punk legends The Descendents and Black Flag and with Jason Livermore at the producers’ Blasting Room Studios in Colorado,My Shame Is True pushes the band into new musical terrain while embracing their classic Trio sound. The album contains 40 minutes of passionate punk-filled rock that showcases guitarist/vocalist Matt Skiba, bassist/vocalist Dan Andriano and drummer Derek Grant at their absolute best.

“We’re very proud of it,” says Matt Skiba. “Once we got in the studio, the songs really took on a shape of their own.”

From the album’s first melodic opener “She Lied To The FBI” to it’s first single, “I Wanna Be A Warhol” the Trio waste no time setting the tone for their energetic,hook-filled, eighth studio album. For the first time ever on an Alkaline Trio record, My Shame Is True finds a guest appearance from Rise Against‘s Tim Mcllarth onrousing punk rock anthem, “I , Pessimist“, while songs like “I’m Only Here to Disappoint” and album closer, “Till Death Do Is Part” remind fans of classic Trio,with stellar song-writing and catchy choruses.
