Oz Rembrandt 10-03-2005 12:41 PM

I want the 3 children running with scissors. Its a FHTI era logo.

Pazz 10-03-2005 12:43 PM

[QUOTE=Bad Blood]I'd have the heart on my arm, i think it'd look awesome.

Why would you have it behind your ear?![/QUOTE]

Because, he likes to be different. :lol:

HitHardDrums55 10-03-2005 02:15 PM

i'd be like joe from the vandals and get it on my tooth...tooth tattoos kick ***

poprocks&coke 10-03-2005 02:22 PM

Hallowe'en at the Metro is £9.99 on play.com

I want the logo with the wings on the back of my neck, or on my clavicle.

See what I did there? Nah, it might look a bit weird. Lol

HitHardDrums55 10-03-2005 05:19 PM

did you just take an alkaline trio song and say thats where you want a tattoo?

by the way: they do a [B]d[B]am[/B]n[/B] (bold cause its very very well, and to block the swear filter) good job w/ clavicle life

Untitled 10-03-2005 05:36 PM

Ive decided what i want, a load of small 5 point stars going around my wrist, then on one side of it, not sure yet, im gonna get the ALk3 star sign there too, but bigger.

[url]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v312/Untitled258/346copy.jpg[/url] like that, with more stars

Pretty sweet, I wouldn't mind a tattoo on my back or bicep. When I'm older I'm probably going to get one.

Oz Rembrandt 10-04-2005 08:52 AM

I wouldn't mind the heart/skull tatoo on the back of my hand. Its supposed to really hurt there though...

Natty666 10-04-2005 10:37 AM

i havent really listened to alkaline trio but i love the song Private Eye, its so good. i really should get an album by the guys and see what i think...

Bad Blood 10-04-2005 12:28 PM

I can't stop listening to 'My friend Peter' tonight. It's a f[I]u[/I]cking awesome song. I wish it was longer !

Drop The Baby 10-04-2005 12:36 PM

yeah my friend peter is one of their best songs imo, completely underated and very very catchy

Natty666 10-04-2005 12:36 PM

what would you guys say their best album is? i really would like to hear more of their songs!

Bad Blood 10-04-2005 12:43 PM

All their albums are amazing.

If you like a 'raw' sounding album, there's their earlier stuff like 'God dammit' and 'Maybe i'll catch fire'

I'd say to get "From here to infirmary' as your first album. It's amazing.

Drop The Baby 10-04-2005 12:46 PM

i think FHTI is considered their best. By me anyway

Angry Balled Fists! 10-04-2005 12:51 PM

[B]Good Mourning[/B] is my love.

Their best by far imo.

I lied my face off is a great song.

Untitled 10-04-2005 01:02 PM

From what i have it goes FHTI > MICF > Crimson > S/T

And heres my tat i want, drew in Biro [url]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v312/Untitled258/SA400044.jpg[/url]

Oz Rembrandt 10-04-2005 01:03 PM

Are we back to this again?!

Goddammit or FHTI. Followed by MICF, s/t, GM, then Crimson.

All are gold. Get them all.

EDIT: Pretty sweet Butler!

Angry Balled Fists! 10-04-2005 01:13 PM

Argh, GM needs more love !

Bad Blood 10-04-2005 01:16 PM

I LOVE good mourning.

I just LOVE all their other albums too.

Oz Rembrandt 10-04-2005 01:24 PM

Good Mourning is Awesome, don't get me wrong! I just like the other albums MORE. The band seemed to be trying to come across Dark and Evil in GM/Crimson, where as before, they where just writing about everyday life with a bitter twist.

Maybe its just me.

Pazz 10-04-2005 01:29 PM

I need to finish downloading all their albums. I have FHTI, GM, 3 songs off of Maybe I'll Catch Fire, and all the songs Chris sent me.
