Alkaline Trio - Blood, Hair, And Eyeballs

Blood, Hair, And Eyeballs is the tenth studio album by American punk rock band Alkaline Trio, released in January 2024 via Rise Records.

The album was recorded at Dave Grohl’s Studio 606 and produced by Cameron Webb, who had previously worked with the band on their previous studio album, Is This Thing Cursed? (2018). Its nearly six-year gap from Is This Thing Cursed? marks the longest break between two albums from the band to date.

Matt Skiba stated that the trio had started to think about bands such as Nirvana, The Police and The Jimi Hendrix Experience, and were excited to record in a studio "engineered for loud, live rock music”. The band took a more collaborative approach to the recording and made sure to build the songs "from the ground up, in the same room which hasn’t happened since the band started”.

The album was released to critical acclaim. Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, scored the album at 81 out of 100, indicating "universal acclaim" based on 8 reviews.

The album was preceded by the singles, "Blood, Hair, and Eyeballs", "Bad Time", "Versions of You", and "Break".

This album is an indies record stores limited edition on black & bone bowtie coloured vinyl housed in a single pocket sleeve with a printed insert, pressed in Europe via Rise Records.
