Remains

The Alkaline Trio used to be my favorite band. I say "used to" because my music tastes have matured a bit, and I'm no longer the spiked-belt wearing angsty teen I once was. (Although, as I type this, my fingers are hitting the keys with black nail polish on them.) On January 30th, they released Remains, a CD-DVD combo of their lesser known B-sides and older tracks. It's funny... three years ago I would have killed for this collection. I think I've seen the Trio like, 4 or 5 times. They're literally great every time, even when Matt Skiba's vocal chords gave out on him and I almost gave up the ghost.

I was walking by The Finest today in my quest for a sandwich and I saw Remains advertised in their window... do I get it or not?
