After a long career of consistently excellent albums, Alkaline Trio amazingly betters them all with 'Crimson'. While the LP is their most accessible & produced yet, it still contains all of the band's trademarks; dark clever lyrics, alternating vocals, catchy razor-sharp guitar riffs, propulsive drumming & fantastic bass-lines. The real surprise is the growth & experimentation on display, which sees elements such as keys & strings used successfully. If anything, placing its highlights at the beginning of the disc is Crimson's main flaw. Recommended Tracks: Dethbed, Burn, Time To Waste, Mercy Me & The Poison.

What a way to start and end a record. The piano and lead into on Time to Waste is A+. Smoke is one of Dan's most underrated songs. In between those 2 songs is one of the best written and arraigned records in Alkaline Trio's history. This record, to me is out of this world. I go back and listen to is in full quite frequently. I loved it then and still love it today. IMO this is Matt, Dan and Derek at their best. rMy favorite tracks (in no order): Sadie, Time To Waste, Smoke, I Was A Prayer, Prevent This Tragedy and Burn.

Such an entertaining release, it might be a bit simple with some silly chord based guitar work but the choruses are catchy and the songs are fun.

My favorite album by Alkaline Trio. Time to Waste couldn't have been a better opener. Fantastic song, I wouldn't expect anything less from them. Burn has got to be my favorite song off the album, Matt Skiba is great. Dan's singing is awesome, like during Smoke, The Poison, and I Was A Prayer. A well put together album, every song feels like it belongs there, sound and lyrics-wise.
