Really, really bad. The drummer is great and always has been, but they can't stay on key to save their life and their sound requires the vocals to be sung relatively on pitch.</p> They’re also absolutely terrible live.

When someone already made a Ramones limited edition converse that was already worn in, and a Joe Strummer commemorative guitar that's all beat up and covered in stickers just like his was? This is tame commercialism compared to those atrocities.</p> This surprises you?

My favorite thing the band has been involved in in the singer's cameo on the bridge of "About Falling" by Say Anything, though.</p> Not having heard a whole lot of their old stuff, I heard “Help Me” on the radio recently and liked it fine.

My high school self would be very upset by this. As it is, the band’s not making me too unhappy that my tastes went elsewhere.

I was obsessed with this band back in high school, but this is dreadful stuff.

The last album of theirs I have though is Good Mourning but I pretty much stopped caring about them. They bring back some good memories still, though.</P> <P>That new song is horrible, by the way.</P> <P>@<A href="http://idolator.com/396575/what-has-happened-to-alkaline-trio#c6289549">Peg Entwistle</A>: Good song.</P> I was definitely one of the people digging them in 99-2001.

@Peg Entwistle: Good song.
