Matt Skiba never seems to stop making music. When he has free time from Alkaline Trio, he keeps busy with one of several side projects. For his latest, dubbed Matt Skiba and The Sekrets, he recruited Jarrod Alexander of My Chemical Romance and Hunter Burgan of AFI. The band's full-length debut, Babylon, will be released on May 8 via Superball Music. Hit the replies to watch an exclusive video of Skiba discussing the project, its members and the music.
Everyone tends to knocks Matt's songs on the more recent A3 albums, but it sounds like his songs change quite a bit on the A3 records once the band collaborates on them based on his comments here. Looking forward to hearing the full length!
I saw Dan A on the Revival tour and it was really great. This sounds quite good as well. Everyone shits on modern Alkaline Trio but I thought This Addiction was really good.
