Heavens features Matt Skiba of Alkaline Trio and Jonah Steinbrick. While the release features the standard Alkaline Trio lyrical metaphors of love, death and the dark side of life, it also embraces something rich and lighter. Beautiful strings contributed by producer Ben Lovett, perfectly minimal guitars by Jonah and a softer vocal presence of Matt Skiba offer something that Alkaline Trio followers will appreciate and fans of more mellow indie genres will like as well.

RIYL: Joy Division, Alkaline Trio, Sisters Of Mercy and Interpol.
