Alkaline Trio 

An extremly kick ass band, though they seem to be changing slightly (as did another good band AFI) with their recent explosion onto the radio and *shudder* MTV.
Alot of people try to lable them as "goth","punk", "emo" or other vatrious things but in my opinion they are simply Alkaline Trio,a band that i can never imagine sucking. Here's a list of the albums that i can think of.
Sundials
Goddamnit
Alkaline Trio
Maybe I'll Catch Fire
Alkaline Trio/Hot Water Music split
From Here to Infirmary
Good Mourning
on a side note, the lyrics aren't all about death, there's drinking and relationships involved too.

I dont care who you've been kissing on these days
It's out of my hands
and in my mouth with such a pleasant taste
I need a beer to wash it all away without a trace
And then i'll drink 23 more
To wipe this stupid smile off my fucking face.

tongue-in-decapitated-cheek, guttoral bass, delightfully strewn with eloquent lyrics that are sardonic and ironic, yet
the antithesis of black & blues, despite their semi-colorful imagery

black & blue and red all over

Alkaline Earth Metal 

Any element of the periodic table which is in group 2.
In order of proton number, Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium and Radium are all Alkaline Earth Metals.

They are characterized by all having 2 outer-shell electrons (two electrons in their valence shell), alas their placing in group 2 of the periodic table.

They are all silver coloured, soft metals which react readily to form ionic compounds.

The name 'Alkaline Earth Metals' is derived from the fact that the oxides formed by the elements in this group produce basic Alkaline solutions, and the melting points are such that the elements remain solid (Earths) in fires. Alkaline Earth refers to the oxides themselves.

x + 2H2O --> x(OH)2 + H2

2x + O2 --> 2xO
2xO + 2H2O --> 2x(OH)2

Where x is an Alkaline Earth Metal.
Both processes are relatively efficient unless you consider Hydrogen, which is produced in the first, to be a waste product. The second process only produces the hydroxide.

Magnesium is an Alkaline Earth Metal - it, and its oxide, react with water to form a basic alkaline solution.

Mg + 2H2O --> Mg(OH)2 + H2
Magnesium + Water --> Magnesium Hydroxide + Hydrogen

2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO
Magnesium + Oxygen --> Magnesium Oxide
2MgO + 2H2O --> 2Mg(OH)2
Magnesium Oxide + Water --> Magnesium Hydroxide

The electron configuration of Magnesium is 2,8,2 - two electrons in its outer/valence shell

Absolutely amazing band consisting of legends Matt Skiba, Dan Andriano and Derek Grant. No other artist/band out there can even slightly compare to their greatness through lyrics which are so emotional and poetic, it makes me think if there is any point in other people trying to be better than them.

Their latest record "Crimson" maintains the same sadistic topics that they cover best. My all time favourite band, undoubtedly.

Listen to Radio, Sadie, Prevent This Tragedy, Take Lots With Alcohol and This Could Be Love....then you'll understand.

Cool Band. Pure Poetry . There sorta the dark side of a mix between emo and indie. all agree with each other please as you should be rippin the piss out of folk who listen to music u disagree with. my personal hatred towards hip-hop , metal and dance.

Goth-trended Person : "rarrr death metal rules dude!"
Alk3 Fan : "actually, i rule. i just won 10 quid in the lottery. oh yeh and that shit aint real music. scientific evidence proves it distorts ur brain patterns till u go retarded....."
