Agony And Irony

about this album

Agony & Irony is the sixth studio album by Alkaline Trio, released on July 1, 2008 on Epic Records. Matt Skiba states that the band set out to record a "hard rock record" that is "anthemic and sing-a-long-ey." In an interview promoting the album, Matt Skiba cites that: "there’s a theme of duality on the record, it’s sort of a spin on ‘ebony and ivory’ which of course represents black and white. The songs on the new album sort of represent a struggle between good and evil, light and dark, and despair and hope. We felt Agony and Irony was appropriate, I mean we fancy ourselves as being pretty clever, and we felt a play on words was also fitting for the new record." 1. "Calling All Skeletons" - 3:19 2.
