21st pressing on Jawbreaker coloured vinyl

FHTI repressed on 12" colour in 2021 & 2024. It can be found for a good deal! Still hoping to see it on solid white vinyl someday.

Tomorrow is the 20th anniversary of Crimson. Trio fans would go crazy if a surprise 12" drop happened. The 10" albums sound great, but are weird on the shelf for sure.

From Here To Infirmary 2nd press. 3 different shades of red. The darkest one is the Interpunk exclusive. The translucent red is a candy looking colour, and quite vibrant. The one with a black inclusion is quite a bit darker than the other translucent, but photographs in a very similar looking way.

Recently picked up a Lavender (1st pic middle, 2nd pic right) coloured 9th pressing variant of Maybe I'll Catch Fire. Shown here with a Lilac and Dark Purple variant from the same pressing. Haven't posted to Insta yet, as I have some new-ish posters I need to get around to sharing first.

New vinyl post up on my Instagram! The center vinyl is a happy addition to my collection I was elated to find in the wild. Sold as mint green I took a chance hoping it was something I didn't have and it paid off. It's a really beautiful swirled vinyl, and one more green variant to check off my list!

For a long time I never knew there was an official Alkaline Trio poster for a Canadian tour date. Then I found this gem on ebay. I didn't even realize this was an 18x24 poster until this listing either. I always thought it was an 11x17 size.

Are there any other Canadian tour posters out there?

A little glimpse at some of my Trio collection I set up in my new-to-me record cabinet. I picked up another glass door unit with two shelves to keep my Trio collection safe from my two curious cats. Also new to my collection is a notebook in back made from an old Good Mourning vinyl

This Addiction CD release test print of a few pages from the booklet. Of the 3 pages available, I liked this one the most as it has all 3 of the guys. Probably should have bought the other ones, but oh well.

Two of them were private sales who found me online and reached out. And one was a very lucky ebay find. I had asked around for a few years, so some people knew I was interested in these variants.

For all 3 it is the vinyl colour. My Shame Is True was accidentally pressed on blue vinyl meant for Broken Wing. The purple marble is a transition between the blue and the intended pink. There are thought to be less than 25 on blue and unknown # on purple. This Addiction was not meant to be on grey.

Here are 3 jewels of my collection. Two mispressed copies of My Shame Is True, and one of This Addiction. A pink Broken Wing and a reversed HWM split would complete the known mispress vinyl collection. Anyone have either for sale? 😅

I recently picked up a printing error of From Here To Infirmary on CD. This is the repressing with cat# VR353 INO2. The correct version is on top with the tracks centered. The error is below with 'Crawl' offset to the left. 'Private Eye' is also missing the red shine found on the other text.

Some Alkaline Trio pins I've got. The left photo with Alka Line Trio were concert pins from 2014. The Olde Style pin came with the pint glass and koozie from my previous post. Four of the others came in a Hot Topic set from mid 2000's.

This is an official Alkaline Trio pint glass, originally released in 2009 as part of a limited edition set available through Vinyl Collective. 16 designs were created for various artists, but each set had only 12 glasses, each with a different band's name and logo. Just 30 sets were made available.

An old photo of my Trio CD collection from 2021. Photographing CDs has always been tough because of the jewel case glare. I've never been too happy with the shots. However, this one is decent, so I guess I'll share it. I've added quite a few more since this photo was taken.

Damnesia by Alkaline Trio released in July 2011 featuring acoustic versions of songs spanning the first half of their career, + two new songs. I often think about how great a 2nd acoustic album would be featuring the material released since 2011. Maybe one day we will get another release like this.

I'll try my best haha. Thanks for being my first follower 🙏

Here is an older photo of some of my Trio things. We've got vinyl, patches, books, wristbands, a pint glass, wallet, pins, and some other various goodies. For the time being, I guess this is exclusive to Bluesky as I haven't shared this on Insta.

I've never been one for Twitter-style social media, but thought I'd give Bluesky a shot. Maybe I'll post outtakes of my Insta photos and random Trio things here, maybe it will fade into obscurity and I'll forget it exists. In the meantime follow me on Insta @alkalinetrioarchive if you like my posts.
