Alkaline Trio - Bad Time

[@johnnyafm]

Every time I see Atom playing he looks like he's having the time of his life!

[@dirtnap9641]

Honestly, his energy feels a bit out of place, especially with Matt riding the struggle bus on vocals

[@misfitskater6]

Can't blame him, playing drums is so much fun!

[@KaptainKlassic]

Yeah even in Angels and Airwaves he was over the top even when it was like a chill slow part lol

[@buflen]

he struggled in some places in the song, but he's been so much worse in the past, this isn't too bad@@dirtnap9641

[@diggetydug]

Derek was a better fit and forever will be. Saw them last year and Atom missed a TON of the little idiosyncrasies in the drum parts that derek provided. This is coming from a drummer who's favorite pop punk band is alkaline, so take with a grain of salt.

[@jawesome59]

Skiba hasn't sounded this good in YEARS. Hyped for this tour.

[@deadpool102192]

Sounds great, and passionate.

[@bluewhye8832]

Yeah. He sounded good with blink from 2016-2017. 2018-2019 was rough live with the trio and blink. But this is close to skiba in top form in terms of having that 2003-2008 passion he can have. He had that passion come back in the first blink shows he did in 2015 but aside from that this is one of the only times hed had that passion to that level. Even with the one voice crack in this performance he killed it. First time trio feels like his main priority since like 2008. Although I love his side projects and can't wait for some more lektron and other side projects.bibeoukfbt trade him doing side projects for the world. I hope he doesn't drop them.

[@Xstaythepath]

That’s because when he was in Blink those songs were out of his range. He was forcing it. Here he sounds natural. The new record is so good too.

[@rtyrtyrtyus]

Voice crack is nerves I think. Not a big issue.@@bluewhye8832

[@hackisack]

frankly I thought he sounded quite bad. I know he sounded worse on occasion but has he consistently sounded worse? Anyways, hyped for the Europe tour also, gonna pre-order tickets this week

[@nicorobin5978]

Still remember having Radio on repeat in middle school. Glad they're still around.

[@TomKloseMusic]

We played that one with my high school punk band. One of the first recordings I ever did. :)

[@lennylenape]

My boys are looking fine, dressed to the nines, and having a bad time

[@CassieMakesArt]

Depressed to the nines 😜

[@Neal85]

🤘

[@davelechner3180]

Honestly, I've been on the ride since goddamnit. This is possibly the best I've seen Matt and Dan

[@davelechner3180]

Furthermore I'm getting old af

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

This is how they used to dress about 20 years ago. They were a suit/dress shirt and tie band. I've missed the look.

[@CassieMakesArt]

Huge shoutout to Kimmel for having one of my favorite bands on. They don’t get enough recognition!

[@mycatralph]

Yeah i totally agree!

[@firemarshal2629]

He doesn’t handle the booking. Jimmy is a tool.

[@bcumpa]

Skiba truly belongs to Alkaline Trio. Always shows his best version

[@erikcarlson6374]

Man, sobriety has done wonders for one of my favorite bands. They sound great and like they want to be there. Looking forward to the album and tour!

[@nothin_but_dinks]

Skiba looking healthy and on point. Sounding like old times! I love it.

[@Sinisterkid34]

The shape shifter himself. Yeah he looks and sounds great

[@FactsBeFacts]

Really? He looks constipated.

[@firemarshal2629]

Dude looks he downs vodka nightly.

[@Skagb0y]

most underrated bass player.

[@DanWalker-r2d]

AND the band Is the same

[@diamondsea5300]

Underappreciated band.

[@Ghostoftennesseemoltianti]

Matt and Dan are just both great musicians. Dan doesn’t do anything flashy, but he noodles around, and delivers exactly what the song needs. I liken him to Paul McCartney in that sense.

[@johnvitto77]

I've watched more than ten times today. Haven't seen the Trio sounding and looking so fresh in years. Dan's bass tone is the sheit

[@Sleonard201]

I feel like Matt had something to prove with this album. And they killed it. ❤

[@lightfandango2955]

Yes! Awesome performance boys. It’s never a bad time with the trio!

[@MatthewVlossak]

Atom is a FANTASTIC addition to the band!

[@ullbasunen2732]

he was great in The Special Goodness

[@FactsBeFacts]

He's been in the Trio before, you can see him in the Private Eye video.

[@MatthewVlossak]

@@FactsBeFacts Oh I’m aware but this time it’s official

[@kcscharpf]

As a huge Blink and AVA fan, I’m glad to see Matt and Atom dominating out there! They sound amazing!!!

[@plaguedoctor4519]

It's kinda ironic Atom joins Alkaline Trio not too long after Tom rejoins Blink and Matt goes back to Alkaline Trio lol

[@marcpavey7752]

This song slaps. The last 30 seconds when the toms go nuts is incredible.

[@deadgamer6106]

Tom did go nuts but is now back in the band

[@baileytyson7747]

They all killed it! Skiba particularly on point! 🔥

[@joemoody2626]

This whole album has been on repeat for awhile now

[@mellena88]

So nice to have Matt done with that little side show project band he was doing for a bit and back 100% to Alkaline.

[@joshsweet7512]

This sounds fantastic, and Atom Willard's glee and Andriano's bouncing are just infectious. SO excited to see them in July.

[@donbeck8835]

Dan looks like he's having the time of his life. Love it

[@briandhoward6137]

So refreshing to actually see a band play like with out anything to enhance there voice and sound. Excellent job.

[@demonicsweaters]

I love how Kimmel actually gets rock bands on his show. Keep em' coming!

[@bulletprooftiger1879]

sick reference bro

[@the406seadonkey6]

Underrated appearance and performance. Bands like AK3 deserve more exposure from these major outlets. Good on the show for having them.

[@joshjams]

Skiba came back from blink and brought monster hooks with him. Perfect song for a tv appearance too they crushed it.

[@IceBreakBottle]

He always had monster hooks. Tom literally was jealous of him

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

I honestly like the new Alkaline album than the new blink. The song writing is on a new level for Alkaline.

[@jeffleonard343]

Crazy how Skiba’s good hooks were missing when he was with Blink? Cause Tom’s catchy AF riffs were missing when he wasn’t with Blink. Dunno if he didn’t have confidence or what. To be fair I think Matt did open up more with their Nine album vs California 🙂

[@nanarose8537]

Never heard of them before, but I certainly enjoyed this introductory performance to me!

[@hamskillet421]

They are an absolutely amazing band and their catalog is deep and full of such rich songs!

[@cashlayton1313]

Check out Calling All Skeletons, Stupid Kid, We’ve Had Enough, Mercy Me, and Radio if you liked this

[@jskong87]

Sadie, Mr chainsaw, private eye, time to waste, are some of my fav songs

[@carlabautista9553]

They have lots of music with other bands too, all amazing!

[@justwiln]

Private Eye, Crawl, Blue In the Face, Snake Oil Tanker were always my favorites

[@josephbrocato3804]

Glad Atom had a good run with Against Me! Hoping he stays with AK3 for a little while. Can't wait to see these guys in about a month in Atlanta.

[@xasperations]

Lots of love still around for this band, with good reason. They remain a cut above in songwriting and harmonies IMHO. Catchy but never corny.

[@Kjertinge]

Jesus Christ they sound sooo good. The boys killed it and Skiba…. Wow

[@kevinbreheny4648]

You've come a long way from touring Goddamnit! in small midwestern rooms and coffee shops at the end of the 90's. I loved you guys then and I still love you now.

[@GregGallagher]

The boys sound and look great! Can’t wait for the new album!

[@TomKloseMusic]

20 years ago, when I started playing music myself, this was my favourite band. Now 7 days before my 20-year-anniversary of being a musician, they are playing a new single on Kimmel. ♥

[@jordanheimer774]

Can't wait to see them. Feb 24th. PHX AZ. Just two days until the new album drops. I'm so happy!!

[@carlabautista9553]

On Matt's birthday!

[@aylaxypt]

I'm blown away. You took my heart right back to age 14. I love alkaline trio, every song, still, even at 32. ❤

[@vanessaluvsranden]

I have to had watched this a millions times already... they are incredible! Can't believe i'm only discovering these guys now!

[@akatsukijonny]

Loved that you guys debuted Bad Time and I got to be in the audience seeing my new favorite song live for it’s first time!! Sounded great live and can’t wait to experience it in the pit next month instead of in the studio seats 🤘

[@johnvitto77]

Sounding GREAT! More Trio, please.

[@vi77ain7s2]

All three singles released thus far are absolute bangers. So excited for this record. Versions of You is my favorite so far. 💀💧💧💧

[@JoshFryer]

Atom on the kit is the best thing Alk3 have done in years! Good tune!

[@mariogonzalez7707]

Very hard to replace Derek, but they nailed it with Atom that’s for damn sure!

[@nocontrol628]

That’s a wild thing to say. Derek is about as good as it gets. Atom is pretty barebones honestly. Definitely a downgrade 🤷‍♂️ not sure what you’re on to.

[@joeabernathy5402]

Atom is an objectively worse drummer than Derek Grant.

[@therapture87]

@@nocontrol628yuppppp.

[@jdomin21]

🤷I don’t think we have seen Atom full potential yet .. all the drum parts for this album are still from Derek not Atom . So if people complain that atom is not as great as Derek because of the drum parts they are just hating .. don’t get me wrong , Derek was and still is amazing but there isn’t a better fit for this band better than atom .

[@pirate89RAWR]

Thank you for having my favorite band of all time on. ❤

[@TimothyMouton]

Damn, how they nailed these riffs with singing... And the drummer is a robot!

[@Neal85]

Can we just admire how much of a F**kin beast Atom Willard is on the kit! 🤘

[@julioalmaraz09]

Matt skiba sounds so good. This song is my current favorite off the new album.

[@AdrienMartinMusic]

They sound great ! So happy to see Atom playing live again !! You guys gotta stop to Europe & Paris ! I'm gonna bang this record all weekend !!!

[@slacker2101]

Didn't know they were still going. Must listen to their new material. Their older stuff was really excellent.

[@AfterTheApocalypse26]

Check out Is This Thing Cursed?, it’s their last album and it’s phenomenal

[@RobbieM5290]

New album out today too!

[@NikkiHensley-w2s]

What an amazing performance! You dudes look and sound amazing! So much love and can’t wait for the tour! 🖤

[@EmoJones13]

HELL YES for my favorite band! ❤️💀🖤

[@harrywise8746]

Atom’s such a phenomenal drummer!!🔥🥁

[@mjolnircarlssen4211]

I’ve heard of them, but never listened to them before this. I really enjoyed their music!

[@LazarWolf07]

Matt has been through a lot these last couple years. God I love seeing him right where he has always been the most perfect version of himself and dammit if it isn’t always wonderful to see Dan too.

[@DiamondMinerOfficial]

Love this track. Looking forward to seeing them live. I’m gonna miss Derek but Atom is great

[@justinrahn4720]

🖤💀❤ long time fan, can't wait to sink my teeth into their new album! Wish I was watching Jimmy when they were on!!

[@DaveVillaromanMusicOfficial]

Atom on drums was the best decision! Perfect time considering the rhythm guitar is on loop while Matt plays the lead riff. The whole album was a banger, Alkaline Trio forever!

[@chiriGrimm]

they sound SO GOOD, i can't wait to catch this tour!!!!

[@GlennJimenez]

yes Matt HERE is where you belong Thank you for keeping blink alive but you are both in the right bands now.

[@museonrepeat]

love to see the guys having so much fun - esp Atom!!!

[@thesearmsaresnacks8899]

Sooo sick! Im really looking forward to this album 💿 9pm PT on iTunes!

[@AlexAndra-mc7np]

Looking amazing! So dapper in the suits and sounds so old school alk

[@muppetjoe870]

What a great performance! Can't wait for Friday!

[@hoodratsk8r]

I saw them back in 2007 at Warped Tour I can't believe I have been a fan for that long!!!! I will go grab my walker and feed the birds now haha

[@CREA9TURE]

Love Alkaline Trio. The always make great albums!

[@J3DandKr15]

Absolutely amazing ♥ This is a top Trio song and a fantastic performance

[@ben__ford9235]

That album is gonna be incredible. Already love all the singles

[@tinyt-rex357]

Absolutely love this. Always been my favorite band since middle school. Would love to see them live again ❤💀

[@blaketruelove]

Hell yeah. Proud of these guys.

[@everythingeviljoe]

Going to see them in Atlanta I'm so excited they have been a bucket list band for me so I'm so happy

[@jayzee4559]

I went to their concert at Gilman st instead of my prom back in 01

[@jeff7764]

This album is so good and looks really cool on the tri color vinyl

[@ParkingLotBacon]

Sounds amazing! So stoked for the new album

[@tpelio12]

The entire album smacks ❤

[@Andrew696ify]

So glad Tom went back to Blink so we can have Trio back

[@TheMarkcu24]

Good for both bands.

[@redcomet0079]

I loved Matt’s time in blink

[@drewsykes8152]

I struggled to get on board with Matt in Blink but just adore him with Alkaline Trio.

[@vincentcappello4746]

He's totally at home here. So happy for Matt. This songs kills.

[@Shawno1978]

New Album is epic i can't wait to see em in Sweet Home Chicago this summer💯🔥

[@Mr_Ashley]

Good to see Matt back at what he does best 🤘

[@ShaneConQueso]

Love Alkaline Trio. New album is great!

[@OllyRobertss]

Saw them in Leeds, UK last week. Seen the band many times, that was the best they've ever sounded.

[@poegerard6421]

Love this band!

[@DirkMathews]

Strong work, Boyos!! Great performance. Glad to see you guys writing and touring again!

[@amangogna68]

Great music, amazing vocals and band !

[@ben_kaiser]

The sound on this is amazing and they sound sooo good

[@bestof3review]

Atom is a top-3 drummer for me. Dude kills everything he does!

[@matthewjames206]

I agree. He's a favorite of mine, too. I love his playing with RFTC 🍻

[@DanEdenIsGone]

Awesome performance, can’t wait for the album Friday ❤

[@JHajzer]

Damn this sounds awesome live, hope to see em on tour soon🤘

[@lightsleeperjude]

Took them 19 years to make a new album again and never fail to impress us. That's sweet!

[@XxWitherWings]

They never age 🖤

[@Fariswheelanwar]

Amazing performance 👏. Can't wait for the album

[@CustomsByMatchu]

Hells ya! Can’t wait to see them in Vancouver!
