Who: Alkaline Trio
Where: Phoenix Concert Theatre, Toronto
When: March 6 2009
Seven albums in and the band is still kicking. With the release of This Addiction last month, the band has boldly revisited the familiar music territory that made them a household name in the hearts of punk rock fans across the continent. They may be aging as 2010 is no 1996, but frontman Matt Skiba, bassist Dan Andriano and drummer Derek Grant showed at their recent Toronto gig that they can still rock shred with the same intensity they’ve always had.
