  • Nice little kid rant in the description.

  • @blaketube14 Don't be hatin' cause you don't have a video with 60k+ vieewws. ;)

  • god this song is awesome! I heard it for the first time yesterday, and it's rapidly becoming one of my favorites.

  • Fu** all small thought thinkers they can't help what there are beeing learned from other some just don't hear the diverence between good music and bad played music. Some bataries don't die at all.... These are the best alkalines ever!!!! mark that!!!

  • amazingly tasty bassline. not too difficult but still something to keep u on ur toes

  • this is, by far, my favorite song <3

  • Why isn't this song more popular? it's AWESOME!

  • AYA HIRANO

  • hahah love the description your so right (Y)

    saw these guys at manchester academy and i honestly couldn't hear for a week, love them

  • this song is amazing!!!

  • That fillmore show was FANTASTIC.

    I had no idea who they were until that show. Instant love. I'm seeing them again this Saturday at Live 105's BFD.

  • Anyone agrees that this song remembers a lot Bad Religion- Epiphany???

  • i was at that sf show (flier of vid) and like all tro shows before and after haha

  • All of Trio's songs have been f*****g epic, i love them <3

  • Good song.

    Good band.

    I havent heard a song from them that i dont like.

    THEY FUCKING RULE.

  • thats the dumbest thing i have ever hard and that statement made no sense

  • Mainstream or not, they are not conforming to any band wagon, so whether the world falls in love with them or not I doubt they'll change their music.

  • I haven't heard of them until today. I heard them on XM radio on Alt Nation. My favorite channel, and I only heard the song once.

  • People say they are going mainstream. I disagree, none of my friends have even heard of them.

  • Ah I love Alkaline Trio. They are amazing, Who so ever thinks other wise can go suck it. Cause they've accomplished enough for me :D Thanks for making the vid dude!

  • 2nd best song on their new album

  • what's best? IMO : Do you wanna know?

  • Help me..what do you think

  • i think dan can sing

    then again he can probably sing better than these douchebags on here that post shitty commnents about him

  • lol...

  • im going to see them next month

    WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOO

  • i just started liking alkaline trio, i knew the song radio for a while but that was about it, then i heard help me on the radio this past year and looked them up, mercy me is also really good

  • This song is fucking sexy as hell.

    This made my Top Ten list of 2008 (best songs I heard during the year.)

  • only song i like by them

  • Now that I read the "more info" at the top, i just want to say that Alkaline Trio is becoming more mainstream and more radio like. I also want to say that dan can't sing, Matt is a sell out, and most of all; i dislike the new album.

  • Sell out???? Do people actually still use these words? I'm willing to bet that you're under 21 and don't pay any bills.

    Skiba has not compromised his ideals in any way shape or form. If you were Matt could you imagine how pathetically boring it would be if they cranked out every record that sounded just like Goddamnit?!?!? It would bore them to death. If they didn't break up by doing that, it would mean that they were terrible musicians who couldn't grow.

  • I think the bands with no variety are the real sellouts. Some fans just don't understand that it's human nature to explore things, especially in the musical area. So one of ur favorite artists wants to try something different. What's the big deal? I totally agree with you BXD.

  • "do you reconize this shape? it's the back of your hand"

    hehe, nice

  • I got to see them live!...it was awesome!...I'll never forget the day!...shining lights, people screamin, ME IN THE FRONT!, going backstage!.....WOW!

  • I like how they dont have a really long entrance. they get strait to the song.

  • Audrina patridge can suck my penis.

    Srsly.

    The trio downgraded when they agreed to be on the hills.

  • yeah but shes a fine ass bitch that audrina is

  • saw these guys on the hills!! they are one of audrina's bands...

  • yahh i saw them too

  • i love Alk Trio but since ive seen them live.. it just doesnt compare.. .. they should only be seen live.. its a new rule and when you see them you'll know why!!!

  • i watched em at gian and reading even met em at give it a name and was bored and disapointed both times if anything trio should only be listened to when its there old stuff not this new trash even live they was all stuck up jerks who didnt care about the fans dunno what they did at your show but id love to no

  • i saw them in chicago recently and i no what u mean....them live is pretty much a whole new defintion of music...i luv them

  • great band but i found a way is a lil better still love this song..

  • dude this song is awsome love the band

  • They're amazing live. I saw them two weeks ago in Glasgow. :D

  • Spammin' muh comments

  • i think alkaline trio and offspring are my 2 fave songs !!!

    XD

  • Awsome song! :D

  • if you seen them live the drumming is awsome he dosent just drum on the drums he uses the stands to that freaking some technical shit and extremely hard to he has a mic set up specifacly for the stand on the hi hat its so cool and they are awsome live

  • this sounds stupid,but what does alkaline mean [dont be an ass about answering plz]

  • Alkaline: being like an alkali.

    Alkalis are water-soluble base (pH 7+) metals and such. A lot of batteries have alkaline metals in them.

  • yeah just like yyrkoon110said, if something is alkaline it is basic, and by base meaning pH, like instead of acidic

  • Oh yeah! And the breakdown at 2:15 is awesome. I Love Alkaline Trio!!!!!!!!

  • Well said Lammy!

  • dude yea i heard this on the hills and its good

  • i heard this song on the hills and i really liked it

  • same

  • <3 teh Trio... no matter how their music changes, they still have it, and I think they always will.

  • fuck all this new shit the old punk shit is where it is at major record labels ends it all matt skiba needs to go back to his heart throbbing guitar riffs and sick bass lines this shit is dead

  • but without him, there would be no alkaline trio. the drummer can change. but take dan or matt, and you have a diffrent band..

  • Dude you ever seen them like? The drummer is freacking ace. He's as important as dan + matt. ffs listen to the intro to this song on the drums. not too hard but so imaginative and suits the song perfectly! its practically orgasmic

  • i think the opposite,

    i reckon they make an interesting change, but I respect your opinion.

  • Dan is a fukin mint singer! i always love his songs

  • Trio Fuckin kick ARSE!!! Thats right im English Big Woop wanna fight about it?!

  • good on you dude.. i marked you down on that comment. extermely lame..

  • "***STOP SPAMMING THE COMMENTS WITH SHIT TALK. NOBODY CARES IF THE TRIO US BECOMING MAINSTREAM OR MORE RADIO SOUNDING. THEY'RE A FUCKING EPIC BAND AND NOTHING WILL EVER CHANGE THAT. I REALLY DONT CARE IF DAN CANT SING, OR MATTS A SELL OUT I LOVE THEM REGARDLESS. A THOUSAND PEOPLE BEFORE YOU HAVE ALREADY SPOKEN THAT THEY DISLIKE THE NEW ALBUM NOBODY CARES! I LOVE THE TRIO HENCE ME PUTTING UP THIS SONG. LEAVE THE CRITICISM FOR YOUR MOMMY******"

    Helllz Yeah.

  • fucking right

  • damn straight

  • this is one of my favorite songs

  • Listen, go find something better to do then be all butt hurt because some band is making music, they want to make. Who cares, if they are going mainstream for money or all that blah blah. Do you realize they have families, and bills to pay. Mouths to feed. If thats the way you look at it. Tomorrow when you go to your job (if you have one), and tell them you don't wanna sell out so you'll work for free. Because basically you're saying that making money from their job, is completely wrong.

  • if so many people don't like them now and think they're shit then that defeats the object of selling out.

    they are making music that they like, they are making music for themselves and not for other people.

    they could continue to make harder punk music like they used to but if it wasn't what they wanted to make then they would be selling out cause they'd be making music for others.

    thy're making music that they want despite what others say about their new style.

    now that is punk rock

  • if bands kept putting out the same album time after time, not only would they be unsuccessful (which, this is their job by the way. lack of success means lack of money, food, etc.) BUT, they would get bored as hell.

  • it doesnt song like they r becoming 'mainstream' atall, jus sounds like good old alkaline trio

  • i'm in love with this song.

  • if you love the new stuff, great, if you don't just be thankful that they made some of the best albums of all time. i don't like trio fans arguing with what's better, the Derek, Dan and Matt are legends to me and their music (for better or worse) has always been one of lights of my life. (i'll get off my soapbox now :o)

  • why cant people stop living in the past and just accept that in the world of music bands grow and evolve, look at blink they evolved, pearl jam did, foo fighters did, silver chair did, for fuck sake if they didnt they wouldnt get anywhere. they would be stuck inside the square . i applaud there will to grow.

    alkaline trio's latest release is fucking sweet. bring on there tour.

  • stfu wat ive herd, this album is bloody mint!

  • this song was off to a slow start for me anyways and i was like oh no, alk 3 sold out!

    bt no, this song is just a little different sounding, the guitar part mostly is what is different

    but its still kickass

  • ahahahahahaha no its not i mean sure cooking wine was punk......... but man people grow up and if they make music so does the music ....

  • The new alkaline sucks for alkaline.

    If I listen to them I want a good punk rock sound, not this MTV groupie shit.

    People are going to treat them like Fall Out Boy.

  • i have the new album and yeh its pretty decent altho not exceptional, its a good listen, but still i love this band and cant wait too see em in august!

  • How did you get it?! Its not out until monday!!

  • found it on some random site and downloaded it weeks ago. i think it mite have got leaked

  • what's great about alkaline trio is that they have something for everyone. just because someone likes their "new stuff" better thinks that their "old stuff" is the only way to go doesn't mean that person is not an alkaline trio fan.

    I personally love everything these guys have to date, this song included.

  • oh and crimson is one of their better albums.

  • yea even tho it was one of their biggest it doesnt seemed like they ever sold out, its like when they got bigger they just changed for the better, like more mature...

  • you guys don't know what you're talking about.

    the new album is going to be kick ass.

  • oh come on.. crimson was one of the best albums to date. Goddammit, maybe I'll catch fire and the self titled album were all the same..and honestly I think I will go crazy if I hear "radio" at another live show...the new stuff is awesome...and yeah like maxwell says there god forbid a band evolves a bit...everything this band has put out in recent years kicks ass!!!

  • this stuff isnt bad at all, the old stuff wasnt even that different from this

  • I miss the days of "Goddamnit" and "Maybe I'll Catch Fire".

    Can't say i honestly like their new stuff, "Crimson" was my least favorite Album.....

  • God forbid a band broadens it's horizons a little bit. Seriously, this song is not shit, balls, terrible, bad, etc. It's a good song. You people who are bashing on this song are just upset because Trio matured more than you did. I love every song I've ever heard from Alkaline Trio, (which is 99%) and I'm think I still will after this album.

  • THANK YOU!

  • This song rocks!!!!

  • I mean... really?...this is horrible!

  • wow...this sucks balls.

  • you suck balls.

  • although i'm more of a fan of their older music, i'm fucking stoked for this new album, i think its still gonna kick ass no matter what everyone says.

  • i completely agree.

  • I agree somewhat. Their older stuff is what I'm really a fan of, but the mere association with that is enough to make me probably end up buying the new cd. I wouldn't say I'm "fucking stoked" personally, but I'm just happy they're still playing music. Of course I would prefer they still sounded like Goddamnit or FHTI or Good Mourning, but the people talking as though it's their decision where the band's style goes need to stfu.

  • yeah i know exactly what you mean. although they're definitely not what they used to be, i'm still a fan of crimson, and i think this album will still be great, just nowhere near goddamnit or good mourning.

  • and also, just like to say that Trrio is a kickass band...love em so much. I like their punk stuff better though.

    IDK, to me, it just doesnt seem as punk as it used to be. Shit lol

  • cant wait to get their new cd!!!

    "Crimson" is my favorite album, following by "From here to Infirmary." Nice song, guys, nice song.

  • I really like this! It's so different from Crimson but at the same time it's so good. I love the way Trio are always changing their sound and progressing. I can't wait till their new album comes out!! It's in like 2 weeks!!

  • i no ill like it wen it comes out cus its the trio, biggest mistake of my life was having my alkaline trio tattoo covered up

  • I actually really like this song. Its actually pretty good compared to most the shit on crimson and the other releases on this cd. I really like the rim shots by the drummer

  • Derek is way better at drums than Glenn, and also better for the band. The old stuff just has punk beats and fills, and it's all sloppy compared to what Derek plays.

  • alkaline trio is the best band ever and i really dont care how they are becoming because they're still the band we know and love! and if you dont love them, you're lame. but whatever.

  • COOL SONG

  • Lolol I've been listening to punk, metal, death metal, etc. that kind of music since second grade :)

  • I agree with "CircaSkater88"

    same with 5, and 6th

  • i agree with "domebuddy" hahahaha

    i hate the posers

    i've loved alkaline trio since friggen 4th grade and idc if they go mainstream or not. i just love the music and i love the new sound

  • damn stright 4th grade i was the only 1 in my class that listend to somthing besides like pop music and brittany spears and shit like that.

  • yee no one knew who sum 41 or blink 182 was and just listened to britney spears and all that shit. i was like a fuckin outcast hahahahaha. no one even like... LIKED any kind of rock in my school ha

  • they haven't lost their sound. this is definitely something that Dan would write no matter what record label they signed to.

  • how bout those mets? big win yesterday! lets keep it up!!

  • I used to know someone with the AIM sn farting...

  • was his name dexter?

  • I totally agree i think that this cd will be a little different but i think it will be just as good as the others.

  • I think this is a great new song by the alkaline trio!!!, ive loved all the of there previous albums such as goddamit and good mourning but i love this new sound and the lyrics. I cant wait for the new album to come out, its gonna be good!

  • dis really makes me mad theyve lost all their styel and are becoming more and more like a band that would b on the radio only problem with that is that their satanists therefore they wont b on it but their style is almost as if it their almost a completely different band from what they were when their best albums were created such as gd alkaline trio goodmourning hell they are a different band from wehn remains was realesed...its sad..

  • Only Matt and Derek are "Satanists" I think matt said it was just for shock value though. their religion has very little to do with music put on the radio anyways, ill admit that they arent as good as they used to be, But things change, Dont hate on someone for getting popular. Just stay in the back of the trio fans, where we can brood and remember the good days before teeny preps came in. Also its a little something called English, learn it. reading your post was like getting hit by a truck.

  • That last sentence made me laugh so loud, you said what I was thinking.

    Ofcourse they are a completely different band to what they were at the beginning (Hello, line up change?)

    Bands become more comfortable in their style and trying new things, I'm sure they've got better at playing too.

    I have to say the new songs are better live, maybe it's the atmosphere? I saw them in London last weekend.

    I've never been disappointed by AT live, could that be my rose tinted spectacles though?

  • Im sure most people are disappointed because its starting to take a new Mainstream vibe. The line-up change is almost insignificant, Dans been around for a Long while now, and changing a drummer doesn't change the whole band :P

  • changing the drummer completely changes the band. Glenn Porter was the best,in my opinion. he was responsible for the way Goddammit sounded. it's all in the drummer's style. the way he accents notes, the way he uses fills, etc. Derek used to be in the suicide machines. As a result, you have the near-mechanical sounding alkaline trio.

  • exactly, glen was an amazing drummer hes the 1 who came up with the heart skull logo for christ sakes. he was waay better than derek even though derek is a good drummer too but him joining the band made there sound change a little bit. that and peoples opinions and visions on things change too i mean playing the same stuff over and over again gets boring people like to explore new things.

  • yea they're both good. but derek is more badass... dont you think

  • and hott :)

  • i just want to say i respect the talents of both drummers, but glenn did have a better impact on trio's original sound that i fell in love with, and he just fit better with the sound they had. the suicide machines are an awesome ska-core band, but bringing that style and rhythm to alkaline trio wasn't as good a fit as what they had with glenn.

  • omg such a good song. the album is awesomeee. i was sooo happy that they were on the hills! thats when i first saw them and they were AMAZING. the hills are awesome and so is alkaline trio!

  • i have to agree goddamnit was the best but FHTI was up there to.

    hard to choose with there guys.

    they rock!!

  • Ya man..Honestly I had bever heard of them and now I listen all the time..

  • you should be happy they were on the hills. it spreads their music to more viewers i had never heard of them until I caught them on tv and now im listening to their stuff

  • Most alkaline trio fans dont want to get fans off of MTV... cause thats where emos and preps brood

  • so look... I dont give a fuck that alkaline trio was on the hills...

    but I would seriously kick the shit out of that girl for talking about food while they were playing....if they aren't gonna show respect they need to GET THE FUCK OUT!

  • Buddy chill... You just dont like that you couldnt get her

  • uhhh...it was a joke...what are you protective over your "late night mtv closet crackwhore model jerkoff material" or what?

  • This new album is gonna rock so many balls!

  • As far as songs that Dan has written, this one is pretty awesome. This album is definitely shaping up to be better than Crimson, but I don't think there's any way it can compete with stuff like Goddamnit or From Here to Infirmary.

    Oh well, even if this album doesn't turn out really good, I'll still have their older stuff in my collection, and that always keeps me happy.

  • I think FHTI was their worst album, not bad at all, still fucking awesome, but i agree, Goddamnit is amazing.

    Anyone else think the same about FHTI?

  • For me, FHTI is one of my favorite albums. It was sort of in the middle ground where they were evolving into what they are now, and it has at least two of my favorite Trio songs, but like you said, it's Trio, it's still fucking amazing even if it's not their best. I like it way better than Crimson or Good Mourning, but I'd say Goddamnit and Self Titled are easily my favorite Trio albums. Of course, Maybe I'll Catch Fire is fucking great too. Ugh, it's just so hard to say. It's all good.

  • hey, sent me the mp3, please!

  • dude, derek is such a good drummer

  • LOve the song : ) <3

  • there is another song that sounds like this one, does anyone know wich i mean.. just the first vers. not lyrics just the sound and the voice

  • i love the way this album is sounding. i am really excited for this album. at first i wasn't too impressed with crimson, but going back it really is a great album for different reasons. i like how they're simplifying their style for this album. i think i read somewhere that they don't want any instruments on the record that they don't actually play, like strings and synthesizers and stuff. should make for a classic trio album. =]

  • Oh and I agree with you, Myliyetj. A shade faster would be perfect. They'll no doubt bump up the bpm live, can't wait to hear it that way next month.

  • This is flat-out one of the best things Dan has written. The breakdown at 2:07 is fantastic, btw.

  • Yeoooo is this new album out now!?

  • it's out in july

  • This song is angular and tight, but I wish the overall studio BPMs would have been a touch faster...

    The early live versions on YouTube were faster and more driving. Trio til they bury me!

  • This is so fucking good. I can't believe that they keep coming up with original sounding music. amazing

  • haha you got rinsed synthesiser boy!! ahah i like it :) trio till i die also x

  • man to be honest i dont know any of your names and most definetly will never see your faces. these guys have made a career out of this shit and a true fan will listen to it. who the fuck are you to tell them how to write music?? thijijermania or wat ever the fuck it is? hav u released 7 albums and played infront of how many ppl? i dont think so! take your head out of your hole and enjoy this slating! TRIO TILL I DIE!

  • hahah for suree. if you dont like it whatever, cuz guess what, someone else does. trio till i die :)

  • ALKALINE TRIO=GOD

  • it's alright.

    not great. but alright.

    i hate to say it, but they can't be my favorite band anymore. they just aren't the alkaline trio i fell in love with, which makes sense because matt's the only original member left.

    i mean, them at their worst is still better than any top 40 shit at its best, but still...

    it's disappointing.

  • You obviously know nothing.

    First off, both matt and dan are still in this band, did you forget, or are you just ignorant?

    Second of all, bands get older and develop. If you cant accept that they are married and have families now( meaning they cant sing about how fucked up life is anymore) then their remaining loyal fanbase is better off without the likes of you.

  • Dan is not an original member...there was a guy named Rob Doran before him...granted, no one knows who the fuck he is anymore, but yeah. on the other hand, you are correct...and people need to learn that bands dont want to play the same shit for the whole career....it's so simple, but it sickens me that people cannot accept that...have you ever been in a band? obviously not

  • Sundials is the only Alkaline Trio release without Dan on bass... and like it or not, Derek's a damn good drummer!

  • The whole song is fantastic, eccept 2 things... 1. The synthesiser in the song sucks. 2. Matt's whao's ion the ref's are too short. But, the rest of the song soand really good and taste like more...

    If I here Fire Down Below, Help Me and then this song, I think the new albul will be so, so good..

    Greetz from Belgium!

  • i cant wate for "in agony and irony" its probobly going 2 be as good as good mourning and alkaline trio

  • Hopefully better than Good Mourning, it was good but it's my least favorite

    Sounds like it will be like Crimson but a little different but it should be really cool. Check out Help Me if you haven't already :)
