Alkaline Trio Announce New Album and Release New Song

Alkaline Trio announced a new album today and they were kind enough to release the first single off that new album for our listening pleasure. Is This Thing Cursed? is scheduled for release on August 31st via Epitaph Records and now you can listen to “Blackbird,” the first song off that album.

There’s a good chance they’ll be playing that song and all your favorites at Riot Fest this September. Get your tickets now. In the meantime, learn the words to “Blackbird” so you can sing along like a pro.

UPDATE: WE’VE LISTENED TO ‘BLACKBIRD’ LIKE EIGHT TIMES ALREADY AND IT’S REALLY GOOD AND WE’RE VERY EXCITED TO SEE ALKALINE TRIO AT RIOT FEST.
