Alkaline Trio release new music video for ‘Bad Time’

ALKALINE TRIO have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Bad Time, is taken from the American punk rock band’s upcoming new album, Blood, Hair, And Eyeballs, which is scheduled to be released in January next year.

Speaking about the new song, vocalist/guitarist Matt Skiba says, Bad Time was initially inspired by a friend and crush who happened to call me while I was on tour in El Paso, Texas as an active shooter situation was happening just across from where we were staying. We could hear gunshots and sirens as the situation escalated. My friend asked if it was a bad time to talk, and I said no – I really wanted to speak with her. It was actually a terrible and terrifying time, but it was never a bad time to hear her voice. The second verse goes back to a time in Chicago when my roommate Bobby and I were almost killed in the crossfire of a drive-by shooting – high as kites on mushrooms. We lived in a neighbourhood run by Latin Kings at the time of the shooting, so I referenced those facts as well as how nice it would have been to hear from the same girl back then.”

Blood, Hair, And Eyeballs is set for release on January 26th via Rise Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
