If you are a fan of the alkaline trio and are a fan of dan andriano's songs in alkaline trio then this cd will be just what your looking for. To be honest only a few songs sound Trio like mainly, "Goodbyes Have Been Said","Please Come Home", and " Another disco party". I think this album leans more towards emo/punk even more so than alkaline trio because the imagery in his lyrics is quite as dark as it had become with Matt Skiba's influence. Danny's voice is a lot more similar to "Goddammit" and his two songs on "self-titled". Like i said if you like Dan Andriano you will probably like this but it doesn't sound exactly like Alkaline trio. I think it is probably better than most of the crap thats on the radio so you can't go wrong. Too bad Tuesday doesn't release an album every 3 or 4 years and maybe do some club show tours.

First off, Tuesday has not broken up. They still practice, they just don't tour anymore. Heck, they've even been known to record the odd new song for a compilation. Now that that's out of the way, Tuesday is an amazing band. Their debut LP is amazing, the only thing is I'm more of a fan of the "Early Summer" EP version of "Too Much of Today." Dan's voice is so raw and harsh on that version, it's just so much better. As for what this sounds like, it's difficult to compare. Think "Mr. Chainsaw" (from Alkaline Trio's "From Here To Infirmary"). Good times. Also check out Alkaline Trio, The Broadways and the Lawrence Arms.

The rhythm section of the ska band Slapstick resurfaces with these 10 (or is it 11? I can't remember) songs. There is seriously not a bad song on this CD! It is one of the best ones I own, I'm never regretful for putting it in my CD player. I was a little nervous when I first purchased it, because I was just starting to enjoy emo and indie rock, and I was affraid my opinion of these three guys (which was pretty big considering they were in Slapstick) would be seriously lowered. It wasn't. I don't think it can increase anymore it's so far up there. I'm still upset that they broke up. I didn't get a chance to see them live. (Yes, for you trivia buffs out there, Tuesday lead singer/bassist Dan Adriano is in Alkaline Trio.)

If you have no idea who this band is, it is still worth a listen. If you're a Dan Andriano and/or Alkaline Trio fan it's a must have to go back to the roots!

I've listened to this CD about a million times in the almost 10 years that I've owned it, and I'm still not tired of it. To me, that is the mark of a great album. A few of the songs are a little draggy for my taste, but their lyrics are good enough to redeem them. If you love catchy emo that makes you want to belt along to the stereo, you will love this album. Don't wait another minute!

This is a must own album. One of the fallout bands from Slapstick (yes Alkaline Trio falls into that also), but don't let the fallout stature placed by mean fool you, this album is damn good! Good ole Chicago!

This cd is one of the best that I own. If you wanted to hear Dan Andriano (bassist from Alkaline Trio) more, then this is all you need. His voice is great, it is before he magically made his voice smooth, it still raw but harmonic. Its hard to explain. Just go buy it and see for yourself.

goddamn this is an amazing cd...didn't leave my cd changer for a year...and it still amazes me! Buy this now!

This is a really good cd. It's kinda Alkaline Trio ish but it's different, which is really cool. It's not as good as Alkaline Trio, because Matt Skiba and Dan Andriano together make unbelievable music. I'd say this album is a 4.5 out of 5.
